Rules of the Game
Decide whether students are going to play individually or on teams Choose and click on a topic, this will take you to numbered question choices Choose and click on a question in the strand Choose an answer, if it is correct Jeff Foxworthy will congratulate you, if it is correct Jeff will nicely tell you – then click on the pink rectangle with the triangle, it will take you back to Pick a Topic. If you are not sure of an answer, you can choose a “Cheat.” PEEK takes you a slide that has eliminated two wrong answers. ACE will take you to Jeff who will ask you to choose someone that can help you (
