How To Set Up A New Game
(Page 1)
You will need to come up with 25 answers followed by 25
questions in five different categories.
All the updates to this file are like any other changes you can
make in a PowerPoint slideshow.
There are 25 pairs of pages waiting for you to enter your
answers and questions. Each slide has a unique number in
the lower left corner to help you keep track of which slide
you are on. Since there are five categories the number starts
with an A, B, C, D, or E, followed by a number within that
category (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). The A- or Q- prefix indicates the
position within a pair. So a slide that has A-C3 is the third
category, third answer: it is the one in the very middle of the
board.
You can page down or page up to the desired slide and change
the text that is already there with your answer.
The category headings must also be changed on the game
board slide. Do this by selecting the slide and clicking in the
text you want to change. Note that the headings are in a table

The first slide also has a title on it which should be changed to
reflect the topic of the game you are making.
If you want to show a double Jeopardy answer select the slide
and right-click on the black background. Choose
‘Background’ and select a red color for the background.
Apply the background only to that slide. Repeat for the
second slide.
That’s it. You are now ready to play PowerPoint Jeopardy.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Do not rearrange the slides or delete them. There is VBA
programming code within this slide show that relies on the
slides being exactly where they are.

How To Play Jeopardy
(Page 1)
Jeopardy is unusual in that the host (teacher) reads an answer
and the players (students) must give the question. This
means that the answers must clearly point to a unique
question, and the players must phrase their responses with a
“what is...” or “Who is...” etc.
A player asks for a category and a number of any available
answers. The host reads the answer and the first person to
raise their hand, once the question is finished being read,
gets to respond with the question. If they are correct then
they receive the number of points for that question (as
shown on the game board) and they get to select the next
answer. If they are wrong then any remaining players may
raise their hand and respond.
