W2-7 Jeopardy
Divide
into two teams. Assign point values to each week. For example, when we are on
week 9, week 3 would be worth 100, week 4 would be 200, week 5 would be 300,
week 6 would be 400, week 7 would be 500, week 8 would be 600. The first person
on Team A chooses a category and a point value. For example, History for 600.
Tell the student what is on the front of the History Flashcard for week 6:
"Tell me about the Fall of Rome". If the student correctly says what
is on the back of the card, they earn 600 points for their team. If the student
does not correctly say what is on the back of the card, I have the entire class
say the fact together. Then the first person from Team B chooses a category and
a point value. For example, "Math for 300". That would be Math from
Week 5. I ask them to skip count the 9s and 10s. If the student correctly skip
counts the 9s and 10s, then he/she earns 300 point for Team B.
Prior to the
game, write down one subject and one point value as an "Audio Daily
Double." When a student guesses that Subject/Value, make that cool
"audio daily double sound". If the student answers correctly, he/she
earns double the assigned point value for his/her team. High Score wins! In reality…everyone wins by learning the
facts!
