Jeopardy Review

Jeopardy review is played just like the Jeopardy gameshow with 5 categories with one Daily Double for the first round and two Daily Doubles for Double Jeopardy. Daily Double’s allow the team to bet the equivalent of their score or the highest value on the board ($500 for first round and $1000 for Double Jeopardy). In Final Jeopardy the team bets equivalent to it’s score. This review game should be played in teams to promote whole class participation.

A variation involves adding a critical thinking question that would be available to every team to answer for the same amount as the question. Adding a critical thinking question allows for more class participation and a higher level review. Remember that all answers must be in question form.

Example-
Question: This Rough Rider changed the office of the Presidency.
Answer: Who was Theodore Roosevelt?
Critical Thinking Question (for everybody): How did Roosevelt change
the office of the Presidency?
