Selah Psychology Game
Ref: 1781
The popular word based board game that has students competing to define and explain key terms.
Lively and highly engaging this activity encourages learning through laughter as well as continuous self assessment. This resource will come out time and time again, giving you great value for money.
I wholeheartedly recommend this Selah game for A-level teachers who want students to have fun when they learn. It's great for revision!
