Why Use a Wordle Format to Teach Makeup Terms?

Game-based learning increases retention

Wordle-style exercises convert passive memorization into active recall. Repeated guesses strengthen memory traces — the same cognitive principles power short, focused sessions in other fields, like the short-form learning trends discussed in micro-content guides. For creative educators, borrow micro-teaching tactics from short-form design thinking in short-form yoga design to structure 60–90 second practice rounds that fit modern attention spans.

It’s inclusive and approachable
