Stack the States™ Lite

Stack the States Lite is a game-based app that requires users to answer trivia questions about states. Each question is phrased as a multiple-choice question, and users must select the correct answer from four options. If users answer correctly, they get to drop a state on a platform. If users answer incorrectly, they are presented with another question. As users answer multiple questions correctly, they get to drop more and more states on the platform, which “stacks” the states. Once users stack the states to a certain height, they win the level and are awarded a state as a prize. Plus, the app presents them with an accuracy report about their performance before advancing them to the next level.

Instructional Ideas

1. As a geography review activity, students can use this app independently to prepare for an upcoming test.
2. Teachers can assign students to complete a level in this activity as homework. Or, teachers can create a friendly class competition to see which student can stack the most states the quickest.
3. After students understand the format of the questions asked by this app, teachers can have students research states, countries, or cities and compose questions about them that are similar to the questions used by this app. Students can compose their questions using an Office app and then email them to their teacher. The teacher can then lead a question-and-answer activity using the questions developed by students.
