This document outlines a jeopardy-style review game plan for a social studies class. Students will be grouped into teams of 4-5 and presented with categories of questions. Lower value questions will cover extensively taught material, while higher value questions will require more critical thinking. Students will discuss answers as a team before writing them down and revealing at the board. The winning team receives bonus points. The game aims to engage students and incentivize preparation through competition.

2. Adapting
To create a fun learning environment I would create a
jeopardy review game.
Students will group in teams of four
or five, based on class size
I will insert categories for my
social studies class such as:
US States
Continents
Countries
Capitals
Landforms

3. Adaptingcontinued LowerLevelQuestions
● Students will receive easier questions for the 100 and
200 level questions, these questions will have been
extensively covered in class and kids will have prior
knowledge.
Example: I am the Capital of Ohio.
● 300 Point questions will be
a little less detailed and
require students to think a
little bit harder
Example: I am the smallest of
the 5 Oceans.

4. AdaptingContinued:HigherLevelQuestions
The four and five hundred level questions will make the
students critically think in their groups to get answers.
Example: These four continents touch the
Pacific Ocean
Example: These United States border Mexico
Students will be given time to collaborate
with teammates to come up with their
answers

5. Students Role
Students will be able to go up to the Smartboard and select
which question they would like to attempt after discussing
with teams they will write their answer on a sheet of paper
and reveal the answer on Smartboard.
Students will add or
subtract from their score
based on if they answer
correctly or not.

6. Benefits
When the game ends the winning team will receive a bonus
point for their efforts. This will incentivize students to
prepare!
Actually going up to the board and choosing new questions will engage students
more than just a powerpoint!
