 * Method of Implementation:

1.) You can quickly create a game template on Powerpoint (copy & paste your first slide multiple times, then edit the words and answers). 2.) Print out the answer key beforehand (On Powerpoint, select "handout" and "9 slides per page") 3.) Print out each slide for the number of students in your class 4.) If there are more slides than students in your class, some students will just receive more than one. 5.) Students must speak at a voice level 4 when it is their turn to speak. 6.) Each student must listen to each other for definitions because papers will be shuffled and dealt out again after each completed round. 7.) Class competes against themselves to try to complete this in the fastest time possible. Speaking of timing. . . ||  4.) Online Stopwatch
