The rules are simple
There are two teams Each team will have one member compete at a time, (ONLY ONE!) so keep yur traps shut! If you are caught talking while others are working on their problem, your team will lose points.
Each competitor is given a white board and a marker You will have 60 seconds to read the question and write your answer on the white board Do not show your answer until I tell you Remember to keep your answer hidden from the other team
If you answer the question correctly you get one point automatically You also get to shoot the ball into the trashcan for an extra point Bounces are fair when shooting The team with the most points at the end will be the winner
The winning team will earn themselves bragging rights!
Today we are playing to study for our “Fahrenheit 451” test. Here’s how it works I am going to show you a slide, you are going to write your answer(spelled correctly) on the board.
Play Ball!
