Problem

Review rounds need quick stakes and a reason for every learner to commit to an answer, not just nod along.

Who it helps

Facilitators running fast, competitive review — two teams head-to-head or one learner under a little pressure.

In training

Pick a square, answer to claim it, and race to three in a row across, down, or diagonally; a miss can be stolen by the other team, or in solo play the Board locks the square against you.
