Jeopardy+Game

Rationale:
This strategy is an exciting way of preparing for the chapter test. We had a lot of vocabulary words that the students needed to recall. The game of Jeopardy seems to motivate the students to participate in the review.

Course:
Geometry –Chapter 10. This strategy is implemented with ninth and tenth grade Geometry students who need to know vocabulary words well.

Diverse learners:
This strategy would mostly benefit all the types of learners. Visual – They will see the words on the overhead. Auditory – They will hear the words and will be able to communicate orally. Kinesthetic – They will be able to move around and buzz in a correct answer.

Procedure:
1. I had the students in teams of four. 2. Each team had a buzzer. 3. The game had 5 categories 4. Each team answered questions under each category. 5. After each correct answer, we quickly reviewed missed answers.

Potential Issues:
A problem that might occur is that having too many teams may take away from the competition.
