Have fun playing this Mardi Gras digital game to review or learn about the customs and holiday of Mardi Gras. 30 questions about the traditions and facts about the holiday, in three different formats. Assign students the PowerPoint, Google drive or PDF version - they will work through the game by finding the correct answer. Or play as a class together on a Smartboard! Use it as a review after teaching about the holiday, or make students do the research to find the information they need to work through the questions.

Each slide has a question in English about the history, tradition or customs of Mardi Gras.  If you've already learned about the holiday, use the game as a fun review.  If you haven't yet learned about the holiday, you could assign it as an activity where students need to look up the answers online.

The game starts with a path that needs to be followed - each section of the path contains three multiple-choice questions.  If you answer the questions correctly, you'll win a doubloon and move on to the next section.  If you get a question incorrectly, you'll need to redo that section. Finish all 30 questions and win the game.

The game is entirely self-correcting, so students can play through independently.  You can assign it as a PowerPoint show, a Google slides presentation, or a pdf.  If you'd like to play as a class, you can project the game on a whiteboard and work through it together. It's a fun way to learn about the holiday that your students will enjoy!
