Rules for playing
The Great Gatsby 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" for team members to play and write it on the board.
- Contestants play for 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!
- Questions unanswered by the contestants will be fielded by the
audience, but no points will be awarded.
Good Luck! |
