1 North Carolina Civic Education Consortium

2 Directions Divide the class into three to six groups of equal size. The team with the youngest person selects the first question. After the first question is selected, teams will have one minute to attempt to answer the question. When a team knows the answer to the question, a representative from the team raises his/her hand. The team will then have 15 seconds to attempt to answer the question. All questions will be answered in the form of a question. If the team answers correctly, it earns the points indicated by the question and gains control of the board, allowing its members to select the next question. If the team answers incorrectly or if time runs out, the question goes back to the other teams to answer, who have thirty seconds to answer the question. If no team answers the question correctly, no points are awarded, and the team in control of the board retains control.

3 Directions Continued First round play continues in this manner until all questions are exhausted or until time runs out. If time runs out during a question, the team can finish answering the question before second round play begins. Play in the second round is the same as the first. The team with the lowest point total at the end of round one starts with control of the board. Point values are doubled in the second round. Play continues in the second round until all questions are exhausted or until time runs out. If time runs out during a question, the team can finish answering the question before second round play begins.
