Title: Water Matters! Jeopardy Game
1Water Matters!Jeopardy Game
Review of the Water Matters! Curricula Grades 6-8
2Directions to Play
- Form two teams, and select a spokesperson for
each team. Or call on students within each team
to take turns answering questions. - Start each team with 3,000 (points). Keep tally
of points. - For all slides to correctly advance, click the
lower left corner of the slide. - Click through the categories to get to the game
board. - When its their turn, teams should select a
question to answer. For example, Hydrologic
cycle for 200. - Click on the question. After the team answers,
click the lower left corner of the slide for the
answer to appear. - On each answer slide, there is a blue box in the
lower left corner. Click this box to return to
the game board.
3Directions Continued
- If a team answers correctly, they score that
number of points. Teams continue to answer until
they get a question wrong. If a team answers
incorrectly, that number of points should be
deducted. - When finished with the first Jeopardy game, click
the "STAR" at bottom right corner to begin Double
Jeopardy. - After all Double Jeopardy questions are answered,
click the "STAR" at bottom right hand corner to
begin the "Final Jeopardy Question." - Before you show the question, ask each team to
write down their wager. Click only once and the
final question will appear. Be careful not to
click twice or the answer will appear. After
students answer the question, a second click will
take you to the answer. - The team with the most points remaining after
Final Jeopardy wins.

60Daily Double!!
61Biological indicators of water quality
62What are macro-invertebrates?
63This word comes from the Latin word sustinere,
which means to hold up or support
64What is sustain?
65One of our most precious natural resources
66What is water?
67The key to preserving our drinking water supply
in the future
68What is conservation?
