This fun and engaging Jeopardy Style Game is the perfect way to review the novel A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle. I typically put the class into small groups or individuals and ask a member of the group to choose a color and dollar amount. That is the question that they have to answer. When I get the class to do it individually I get them to put the answers down on a piece of paper and mark them at the end of the game.
This resource includes 2 versions, firstly a multi choice version to make it easier the first time (or with younger students) and then one without.
NEW! I have now introduced a visual point scoring system to keep track of how much money the teams have earned. Simply click on the allocated game board and with each click the amount increases by $100
I run it on an interactive whiteboard but would be equally successful on a projector, computer or TV screen. Alternatively it could be run for an individual student on their own device.
