Four Teams Formed by Cards (red, blue, green, and yellow)
Each person must have a pencil and paper.
Each person is given a card with a player number.
We will start with the RED team first, then followed with blue, green,
yellow.
A problem will be shown. EVERYONE must form a huddle to solve the
problem.
The die is rolled to select the person who is to answer the question.
That selected person only is to answer.
No help or gestures are allowed.
If the selected person answers correctly, that team gets the points.
If missed, the next team has the opportunity to answer.
If answered correctly, the selected person gets to go for the BONUS
points. (1 point shot or 2 point shot or 3 point shot)
The next question goes to the blue team.
Team scores will be kept by your teacher. The time limit 30 minutes.
The team that has the most points after 30 minutes is the winner.
