How to make this Jeopardy game
work for your topic
Make sure that as soon as you start editing it to make your own game, you save
it under that name. keep the original names as JEOPARDY TEMPLATE so you
can get it later and make it into a game for another topic.
Enter the name of your jeopardy in the title slide which is right after these set
up slides.
You’ll need five basic topic areas for your subject. Example: if your course is
Basket Weaving 101, then your five topics could be
Materials
Weaves
Making a handle
Ending a strand
Treating with preservatives
In the edit mode, start off by putting in the “topics”. Use the “replace” feature under
the “edit” button up top. Then t go to each page that has a question and answer on it
and fill them in; make sure the answer on that page is the answer for the question on
that page. We have found that is it confusing if we follow the standard Jeopardy
format where we give the answer and they must give the question so we just give the
question and they give the answer.

“Q#” and an “A#”, then just put your
question in where the “Q” is and your answer
where the “A” is.
Save your finished product.
When you’re ready to have your class play
the game, open that presentation and then

Se up your teams and have them sit
together.
Explain the ground rules
Assign a score keeper who will watch
to see which team raises their hand first
for each question and they will also
keep track of what team wins what on
the board or flip chart.
JEOPARDY GROUND RULES
1) Raise your hand when you want to answer.
I will call upon the first hand I see raised.
You get one answer; you cannot change or
modify it after you have given it.
If the first team to answer gets it wrong, they
get that score deducted from their total and
then the second team that raised their hand
gets a chance to answer.
JEOPARDY GROUND RULES
One of the questions will read “DOUBLE JEOPARDY”.
This just means that this question is worth twice
what it is listed for.
When all questions are complete click the “Final
jeopardy” button on the bottom. Before they see the
question each team must write down how much
they want to wager.
Then show the question and they write down their
answer. They cannot change their wager $$ after
they see the question.
When the music stops each team reveals what their
wager was and their answer.
