On a 36-inch (approximately) square of
white felt or other material, draw the game boxes--five across
and five down. You may wish to leave an open space at the top
where you can write the name of the game.
Print the accompanying pages, ideally
on heavier card stock paper (or you could laminate the cards).
Then, cut along the dashed lines to form individual cards. If
you copy pages back-to-back, matching each category with its
accompanying questions/answers, you’ll have each question and
answer front-to-back when you cut them out. The order doesn’t
matter, unless like the real Jeopardy you wish to match “harder”
answers with higher dollar values.
If attaching velcro is not an option
due to the text on the back of the cards, perhaps you can use
thumb/fun tack. Or if you have enough time, you could create
pouches for each slot (by taping pieces of paper to the board
which are larger than the question cards, leaving each open on
top to insert the cards). A third option, though it wears out
the cards quickly, is to use pins.
Seven categories of questions are
provided. Choose five to use for the game, or develop a wider
game board if you wish to use all seven categories/columns for
one game. |
