How This Game Works:

1. Draw a Question:

   • Students click on the deck of cards to select a question.

2. Answer the Question:

   • Students answer the question, then click the corresponding question number under “CHECK ANSWERS” to see if they answered it correctly.

3. Return to the Deck:

   • After checking the answer, students click “BACK TO THE CARDS” to return to the deck.

4. Score Points:

   • If the answer is correct, students click on the score to add points.

5. Discard the Card:

   • Click the card a second time to discard it from the pile and move on to the next question.

Customization Options:

You can tailor the template to suit your needs by customizing:

• Font Style and Sizes: Adjust the text to match your preferred fonts and sizes.

• Backgrounds and Colors: Change the background and color schemes to fit your theme.

• Borders and Buttons: Adjust the borders and the size of the “buttons” or “cards” to your liking.

Protecting Your Work (You can also access videos on how to do this by clicking here):

To ensure your resource is protected from edits, follow these steps to save a protected version of your PowerPoint:

Save a Copy (this step is for both a PC or Mac):

1. • Go to File > Save As. Consider adding “PROTECTED” to the end of the resource title to differentiate between the original and protected copies.

Add Protection (PC):

1. • Go to File > Save As and click “More Options”.

   • Click “Tools” and then “General Options”.

   • Add a password ONLY in the “Password to Modify” box.

   • Choose “PowerPoint Show” under “Save as Type” to save it as a .ppsx file, which opens directly in presentation mode.

Add Protection (Mac):

1. • Go to File > Passwords and check “require a password to modify the presentation”.

   • Enter and verify your new password, then click “Set Password” and “OK”.

   • Choose “PowerPoint Show” under the “File Format” dropdown menu and save it as a .ppsx file.

The .ppsx version will open directly in presentation mode, making it ideal for posting on TpT or assigning to students for classroom use.

Additional Resources:

For more detailed instructions on protecting your work, refer to the “Adding Protections” section, where you’ll find video tutorials for both PC and Mac users.

There is also a tutorial on listing to TPT along with a Canva template for teacher directions you can modify located in the "Uploading and Assigning Your Templates" section.
