An excellent FUN review
activity!
* Students are highly engaged
* Multi-reviews (each time a team receives the DVT,
members have to review what’s
already noted on it and then think
of something new to add)
* Teachers are often circulating 3-4 different
DVTs at the same time, each focusing on a
different topic to review

extremely
emotionally upset
to the point of being disabled
or unable to act
Many Jews were so distraught
about what the Nazis were doing
to Jews that they couldn’t think of
ways to save themselves .
…unpleasant, irritable, sour
- some act sullen on purpose as a
way to punish people they are
mad at or to get what they want
Dussel was acting very sullen – he
didn’t speak to Ann for two days
and avoided her whenever he
could.
…so bad that
others think
the person will never learn
to behave
Nazis viewed all Jews as
incorrigible people who were dirty
and dishonest and would pollute
their “master race.”
…move from one country to a
new country and
settle there
permanently
Many Jews tried to immigrate to
other countries, but most of the
countries would not let them
come. They had nowhere to go.

Use at the BEGINNING of a lesson to preteach or review key vocabulary.
Use DURING a lesson for guided notetaking
Use at the END of the lesson to review and
anchor key terms taught during the lesson.
good choice for first-time DVT users
Ideally, each feature should be noted on a
