Teacher Note: This activity is part of the Rudolph Academy coded assignment system. No student accounts are needed. Teachers create an account, generate an assignment code, and share both the activity link and code with students. Students must enter the correct assignment code and their period number when starting the activity so their work is tracked and appears in the correct teacher dashboard reports. If no code is entered, students can still complete the activity, but their results will not be recorded in the system. Use the time, rounds, accuracy, and points shown in the report to set expectations for completion. This activity works well for classroom practice, homework, warm-up, review, or class competition.

Student Sign-In

Students can change matches until they click Check Answers. After checking a round, click Next Round to continue.
Enter your name, choose a time limit, then click Start Game.

How Scoring Works

  • Click one word on the left, then click its matching definition on the right.
  • Each correct match = 1 point
  • Perfect round (8/8) = +2 bonus points
  • Each round draws from a 220-term middle school U.S. history vocabulary bank and is screened so exact duplicate definitions and very similar terms do not appear together.
  • Report shows points, accuracy, time spent, completed rounds, and perfect rounds.
The matching game is locked. Please complete Student Sign-In and click Start Game to begin.
