PLEASE TURN IN YOUR HOMEWORK
Welcome to Mr. Gross’s Wonderful
World of TRIVIA!!!!
How it works….
• Each table group comes up with a team name
• When Mr. Gross puts a question on the board, each
team must write their answer on the whiteboard at
their table
• The “WRITER” will change for each question
• You will have exactly 1 minute to answer each
question – everyone holds up boards at same time
• Once you hold your board up, you cannot put it
down for any reason (or you will not get a point)
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER…..
• TALK WHEN YOU ARE HOLDING UP YOUR
BOARDS – YOUR TEAM WILL NOT GET A POINT
IF YOU ARE TALKING
IF…..
• Your team wins, I will bring in treats for your
team on Monday while you are taking the test
• There is a tie, or if the whole class ties, I will
bring in treats for the whole class on Monday
during the test…….what a great way to start
off the week!
