2/20- Black History Quiz-
Teacher Choice: There are 25 questions for the link below. The teacher can pick how to play the game- either teams or individually. Record your answers on a sheet of paper, by a show of hands/choices on index cards (1,2,3,4), 4-Corners, etc.
https://worldhistoryproject.org/quizzes/black_history
If time remains: This is 10 more questions.
https://www.aarp.org/politics-society/history/info-10-2011/black-history-trivia-quiz.html#quest1
2/19- Black History Jeopardy-
Have students break into teams (up to 12). Use the link below to access the game. REMEMBER to ANSWER in the form of a question (i.e. Who is Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.?). Unlike Jeopardy, have teams go round-robin to answer the questions (each team answers only one question and turns rotate in number order). Points are only given to the teams for right answers, not taken away for wrong answers. The teacher issues points as the teams earn them. The scoreboard is found under the game board. Press F11 to make the game full-screen and F11 again to return to regular settings.
