Explanation of Explanation of PowerPointPowerPoint

This World War II Jeopardy game could be used for a review after finishing a unit on World War II. Students seemed to really enjoy playing Jeopardy for a review. I would encourage students to write down the questions and answers to help them study for the test or quiz. Since I do not have curriculum in front of me to model the game after, the material is spread across all of the war. A teacher in a classroom may split up WWII into two chapters. A Jeopardy game could also potentially serve as an introduction to test what students already know about the topic. Teachers could pause to explain a bit more about the topics if they are using it as a “What do you know” exercise. For this WWII Jeopardy game, I would probably insert a few more Youtube movies and links to other websites to show images to students.
