Pop Game Template

This engaging template is inspired by the popular Pop It fidget toys, but please remember not to use the term “Pop It” in your title or description as it is trademarked. Instead, you can refer to it as a “Pop Game” or “Popping Game.” Here’s how your students can use this interactive game:

Accessing Your Templates:

How This Game Works:

1. Choose a Question:

   • Students pop any of the buttons to select a question.

2. Answer the Question:

   • After selecting a question, students answer it and then click the “Check Answer” box to see if their answer is correct.

3. Return to the Game Board:

   • Once they’ve checked their answer, students click “Game Board” to go back to the main game board.

4. Score Points:

   • If the answer is correct, students increase their team’s score by tapping the number buttons.

5. Next Question:

   • Move on to the next question by popping a different button. Questions that have already been answered will appear as “popped.”

6. Winning the Game:

   • The team with the highest score after all the buttons are popped wins the game!

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.

• Buttons: Adjust the size and appearance of the “buttons” to your liking.

Protecting Your Work (You can also access videos on how to do this in the next lesson):

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.

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.
