Directions for playing Jeopardy

  • Divide the class into two teams and have captains for each team. They will decide which question will be chosen.
  • Assign a scorekeeper. Sometimes it may be the teacher if the teams are even.
  • Tell the two teams to look carefully at the point value of the questions. The more points a question values, the more difficult it is.
  • Click on the point value the pupils have chosen and it will take you to that question. Have the pupils discuss and decide on the right answer within the given time (20-30 seconds). When the time expires, ask the pupils to answer the question (or to show their answer). The team will get 20 points if they answer a 20-point question correctly.
  • After the given time period, click anywhere on the slide and it will take you to the correct answer. To get back to the main page click on the house in the lower right-hand corner.
  • The point value should change its colour since it is a hyperlink. Thus, you will know that question has already been answered.
  • It's now the next team's turn. Just repeat the above-mentioned steps.
  • The pupils in the team with the most points will be declared WELL INFORMED YOUNG EUROPEANS.
