Differences Divide Britain and its Colonies
Jeopardy!
2
Directions Divide the class into Team A and
Team B. Then divide the teams into groups of 3-4
students. The first group on Team A chooses a
category and an amount from slide 3. When the
group agrees on an appropriate question to ask
in response to the statement, one student asks
the question. Other team members can whisper an
answer to the group, but if the answer is heard
by the teacher before the group is ready to give
an answer, the team loses their turn and the play
goes to Team B. Teams have 45 seconds to
formulate a correct question to the statement.
If correct, the team wins the dollar amount. If
incorrect, they receive no money. Play then
goes to Team B. Play continues until all
category amounts have been chosen. The team with
the most money wins.
