Magic+Squares

Create two columns – one for content area terms and one for definitions or other distinguishing statements such as characteristics or examples. Direct students to match the term with the definitions. In doing so, they must take into account the letters signaling the terms and the numbers signaling the definitions. The student then puts the correct number of a definition in the proper space in the “magic square answer box.” If their match-ups are correct, they will form a magic square – that is, the numerical total will be the same for each row across and down.
