Are You Smarter Than an eighth grader?

1. Are You Smarter Than an eighth grader? A PowerPoint Game specifically for students in the eighth grade

2. Overview • This game is designed to help and test eighth graders in each of their subjects. “Are you smarter than an eighth grader” is based on the popular game show called “Are you smarter than a fifth grader.” Questions range from being very easy (grade 1) all the way up to the grade 8 level. There will also be a bonus question for 1 million dollars, which is not necessarily a grade 8 question, but is one the students could answer if they put their mind to it! Also, if you flunk out after gaining $25,000, you keep the money that you already gained. You have a student who you can peek, copy, and save once per game. Note that you can not use your cheats for the million dollar question.
