1. Students are divided into teams.

2. Each team chooses a question and has thirty seconds to respond correctly. Answers must be in the form of a question, although Mr. Rosentel may not be too much of a stickler on this point.

3. If the team’s solution is correct, then it receives points for that question. If it is incorrect, the next team may attempt to solve the question until it is answered.

4. A different person from each team must serve as the spokesperson to solve the question so that each group member, has an opportunity to speak. The group members can help the spokesperson.

5. During a Daily Double, the answer will count for double its face value. So, if a team hits a Daily Double on 20, they will win 40 if they answer correctly or lose 40 if they answer incorrectly.

6. Final Jeopardy will be either when all the spots on the board have been chosen or when 3 to 5 minutes remain. Each team has the opportunity to wager up to all of its points. Once its points are submitted, the question will be posted. Each team will write down its answer and submit it to Mr. Rosentel.

7. The winner of the game is the team that ends up with the greatest number of points.
