Rules for playing
Exam Review Jeopardy
- The class is divided into three teams.
- Each team sends up one contestant at a time to play. Teams must make a "batting order".
- Contestants play for either two or three questions, then each team sends up another contestant.
- No yelling out answers in the crowd! Only the contestant currently playing may answer the question, and they may not get help from other team members.
- Team number one chooses the first category.
- Contestants will knock once on the table to indicate they have the correct answer to the question. First knock answers.
- Contestants should phrase their answers in the form of questions. Ultimate decisions about the acceptability of answers are made by the teacher.
- If the contestant gets the right answer, they choose the next category. Otherwise, the next team chooses.
- Points are added for a correct answer, and subtracted for an incorrect answer, so don't knock unless you know the answer!
- Players getting the daily double must answer the question themselves, after deciding how many points to wager on a correct answer. Correct answers are worth twice the points bet, incorrect answers subtract the number of points bet from the team's score.
- Questions unanswered by the contestants will be fielded by the audience, but no points will be awarded.
