1. Instructions for using this template.
• Remember this is Jeopardy, so where I have
written “Answer” this is the prompt the students
will see, and where I have “Question” should be
the student’s response.
• To enter your questions and answers, click once
on the text on the slide, then highlight and just
type over what’s there to replace it. If you hit
Delete or Backspace, it sometimes makes the text
box disappear.
• When clicking on the slide to move to the next
appropriate slide, be sure you see the hand, not the
arrow. (If you put your cursor over a text box, it
will be an arrow and WILL NOT take you to the
right location.)
