Review of Ancient Greece I will choose two teams Teams will line up and stay in that order Round 1: the first 3 in line, for each team, will sit in the chairs I will ask a question and each of the three players will write an answer on a white board (If correct, you get 2 points) If a player needs help, they can ask the next person in line (but gets only 1 point) Round 2: repeat with the next 3 people in line for each team Each winning team member is allowed to ask for one hint during the test Cheating will result in the loss of 3 points (answering out of turn, peeking, helping) Distracting any other player (someone who is trying to study) results in being taken off the team, you don’t get to play, must stand in back, and will not get a hint during the test Questions will be reviewed if necessary Both of my hands raised means it needs to get quiet Remember, I WANT everyone to do well and paying attention will help!
