Japanese Jeopardy Answer the answers with questions. Or question the answers… じょうだんです。 (Just kidding….) Rules:

PROCEDURES We will have 2 teams. To be fair, we will decide on which team goes first by Janken. Each team gets 2 turns. You will have 30 seconds to answer the question every turn. To select a question, ask for a category and a point value. For example, Kana for 100. Details will be explained on the next slide….

RULES Do not say or shout answers ever. If you do so, your team will lose 5 pts each time. If a student gets the question right, he/she will select another question. If a student gets a question wrong, another student on the team may answer the question by raising his/her hand. He will be called by Mrs. Oda and then may show the answer on the board within 30 seconds. When the first team has had 2 turns, the other team now gets 2 turns. If neither team can answer a question correctly, the points will be lost.
