5th Grade Jeopardy Game

TP – Students will create a Jeopardy game by researching and using a template

You will create an interactive game as an end of year review for your peers.  You will create a Jeopardy game using Microsoft PowerPoint and the template provided.  The game needs to have a theme which all the questions relate to.  We will play these at the end of the school year.

  1.  Read these directions carefully
  2. Download the Jeopardy game template from the bottom of this post.
  3. You need to think of Five categories. All of these categories need to be based on school subjects and trivia.
  4. The entire project could be 5th grade subject specific (all math, all science) or topics in all 5th grade subject areas.
  5. You must have five questions with their answers for each category.
  6. Each question should become more difficult with point value.

As you begin to finish your project, please ask yourself the following questions before submitting:

1.  Does it function?

2.  Do the answers match with the questions?

3.  Do the links work?  Do I go back to the playing board after the questions?

4.  Have I named all the categories on the playing board?

5.  Are my facts correct?

6.  Did I look over my spelling and grammar?

7.  If you changed colors and backgrounds, do they match?

If you are able to answer all of these questions with YES, then you may submit the file.

Video Project:

TP – Students will show how they can support the school by designing a video.

All New York City school students are invited to film a three-minute video. The project should outline what they would undertake to make the school better and tell why their school is in need. Co-sponsored by CSA, the winning schools will be selected on:

  • The school’s need
  • The spirit of collaboration demonstrated in the video and the proposed project
  • Creativity of the project and how it would strengthen the school community

There is a $10,000 grand prize!

Think about school libraries..

Outline your idea.  Mr. Sillman will take the best ideas and let the kids make the videos
