Flashcards


Flashcards
- these materials are used for drill activities in teaching certain topics. Flashcards may contain words, phrases, sentences, math combinations or pictures. They help develop skills as well as automatizing responses of learners.



The following are considerations in using flashcards (Garo, 2007):
·         Make sure that the flashcard is big and bold enough to be seen by everybody,
·         Flash in a fast and snappy manner to develop fast thinking of response.
·         Flash cards from back to front. Answer of each card should be written at the back so that as you flash, you can see the answer and check if the response is correct.

·         Hold flashcard at chest level and make sure not to hide the words or math combinations on it.
