JEOPARDY
Directions:
Divide the class into two teams: Team A and Team B.
Then divide the teams into groups of 3-4 students. The
first group from Team A will choose a category and an
amount from slide 3. After the group agrees on an
appropriate “question” to ask in response to the
statement, one student asks the question. Teams have
45 seconds to formulate their “question.” If correct, the
team wins the dollar amount. If incorrect, they receive
no “money.” The turn now goes to Team B. Play
continues until the board is clear. The team with the
most money wins.
