1. Equations – Perpendicular Lines – Shootout!
Students compete (1v1 in pairs or in teams, at their tables or at the front) to
answer questions the quickest.
Students could write on your whiteboard or their own.
Delete too difficult/easy question slides beforehand (and its individual intro slide).
Click anywhere to start the music, then click ‘Go’ to show the question,
then click again to show the answer.
This game has sound!
