A Paleontology/Skull Unit Review Activity

A Paleontology/Skull Unit Review Activity

Directions: • Two student sit with backs to this presentation • The two students in the second row give the students clues to the vocabulary word onscreen as a clock keeps time • The students tries to guess the word before the buzzer • Only the first row guesses while the second row gives the clues

Directions: • The clues must include terms that we used in class • No portion of the password can be used in the clue • If one team does not get the answer it is passed to the first row of the other team • The other team must guess immediately without any other clues • If both first rows know the answer then they will shoot the basket to determine which team will answer

Directions: • If we end in a tie, each team can pick a word for the other team • The word can be from any unit that we studied this year • Both get a chance to answer • Continue as necessary
