1. This is Jeopardy Cell Reproduction To make this game…
First think of five review categories and five questions for each category.
Add the categories to the top of the table in slide 2.
Place your questions according to the categories into the slides. For example…C1-200 is the question for Category 1 worth 200 points. C5-400 is the question for Category 5 worth 400 points.
Place a final jeopardy question in the Final Jeopardy box.
Test your slide show.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at or

To play the game.
Divide you class into teams. If you have bells or some other way of emulating ringing in your answers, knock yourself out!
The contestant chooses a category and a point value. Click on their choice and you will advance to the associated slide. Click on the slide to reveal the answer. Once the contestant has stated the question click on the slide again to reveal the question. Click BACK to return to the Categories Slide.
The first contestant from team 1 goes first then I alternate to the next team.
