Crossword Puzzle

The thought of crossword puzzles as well as word searches came into my head one day when I was researching ways teachers have used to help their students learn a certain topic. The idea of the Crossword Puzzle or Word Search was more to test the students knowledge of the Krebs cycle as well as their spelling after the initial teaching had been done.




After brainstorming between doing a crossword puzzle or word search I swayed towards doing a crossword puzzle. The reason for choosing the crossword puzzle was because I thought there would be a wee bit more freedom and flexibility when it came to changing the level of difficulty of the cross word as well as the possibility of the different age ranges it could be available to.

The crossword would not only testing the student's knowledge of the spelling of the different words in the krebs cycle but it will also be able to testing their actual knowledge on what the different steps within cycle mean.

Students can learn the process of the cycle by just memorise each step but the crossword puzzle's main aim is to ensure that their in knowledge of the process is indepth and their understanding is of a high standard.
