Romeo and Juliet Jeopardy! Today we’re playing Jeopardy! Yay! I’m going to give you one minute to get into groups of 4 or 5. Decide who is going to be the writer for your group. Have the writer get out a sheet of paper. Write down the names of each group member at the top.

Jeopardy Rules Prizes: 1st Place: 2 pieces of candy, 10 bonus points 2nd Place: 1 piece of candy, 7 bonus points 3rd Place: 1 piece of candy, 5 bonus points 4th Place: 1 piece of candy, 3 bonus points 5th Place: 1 piece of candy, 1 bonus point Your group will have two minutes to answer each question. If you don’t have an answer within 2 minutes, the question is up for stealing. If a group answers a question incorrectly, there is no penalty, but the other groups will get a chance to steal. If they get it right, they get the full amount of points the question was worth (no splitting). NO PHONES! If I catch you looking up an answer on your phone, your group is automatically disqualified.
