Welcome to Jeopardy! The fun and sneaky way to review material for the upcoming test!
And now… a brief introduction to the RULES of the GAME…
Each group must: a) SIT TOGETHER, and b) Designate a SPEAKER who will respond to the prompts (You may NOT change speakers).
The game consists of FIVE categories, each containing FIVE questions
Questions are randomly arranged, NOT by degree of difficulty
Each speaker may select only ONE question per round
Once the selected question is posted on the screen, the SPEAKER of the team has 10 seconds to respond.
The speaker may consult with teammates before responding
During the game, whispering is OK, but LOUD talking and/or disruptions DURING THE GAME may result in point loss for the entire team.
The response should be phrased in the FORM OF A QUESTION The response should be phrased in the FORM OF A QUESTION. (Words, phrases, and statements – even if correct – may be disqualified)
A CORRECT ANSWER earns the team the amount of points indicated on the jeopardy board.
If the speaker does not respond correctly within 10 seconds, the question passes on to the next team speaker, who has 5 seconds to respond.
The number of points for the correct answer at this stage are the same as for the previous team.
Questions that are not answered correctly by the selecting team are offered to the other teams in turn until a correct answer is given or all teams have guessed incorrectly.
For the Daily Double, the speaker designates the number of points – up to the max. points earned by the team. If correct, the team earns the designated points; if incorrect, they lose the designated points.
Again, whispering is OK, but remember, LOUD TALKING and/or DISRUPTIONS DURING THE GAME may result in point loss for the entire team.
The judge’s decisions are FINAL and whining, pouting, and/or complaints will NOT BE ENTERTAINED…
