2. Earth Materials Jeopardy Hosted by: Your Fabulous Science Teacher

3.  The purpose of this game is for us to have fun, work respectfully together and to review for our test.  This is like Jeopardy because there are categories with 5 questions worth $100 - $500 each.  There is one difference, you will not have to answer in the form of a question. The question is posed to you and you need to give an answer. DO NOT GIVE YOUR ANSWER AS A QUESTION.  Your team agrees on one category and amount. The group’s announcer will tell the teacher which your group has agreed on. (ie. Properties for $300)  Your team will be given time to discuss an answer then the group’s announcer will tell the answer to the teacher.  If your group’s answer is correct your group will earn the money.  Then it moves to the next group’s turn.  When your group has chosen a Daily Double, a cheer will sound. If your team answers the question correctly, your team will earn double the points for that question.  After time is up, we will go to the Final Jeopardy round. Directions will be given at that time! Directions
