To Engage Them All: Grudgeball.. a Review Game Where Kids Attack!
I have long been a huge fan of using games in the classroom. Much like sneaking broccoli into the pizza sauce, I have always felt that games were that perfect balance of teaching and engagement. When I first started, my consummate go to was Jeaopardy but..... Holy work Batman! Setting that all up was extremely time consuming.

Always follow your instructor's requirements, advice, or suggestions, however. · A first citation must be complete. Subsequent references are abbreviated in standard forms. Many well known texts are then cited (in the text of your paper even using endnotes) simply by the customary Latin title (first few words) like Divino Afflante Spiritu. · A work issued by the overall Church (like the Catechism, or any Vatican II document) is cited ONLY by its title from the publication information. · In MLA style, honorific titles like "Pope," "Father" or "Cardinal" or "D.D." are not added after, or before, a name. · If a document is issued by a constituted church body or organization (rather than by an individual as ecclesiastical authority) use the title page information as far as practicable. · In theology and church writings, citing the paragraph or section number of a work is regular practice.
