FINAL QUESTION ______________

• How to play…– Don’t play like Jeo_ _ _ _ y.– Class should be divided into several small groups.– Groups should use science journal (red slide

notes), homework, and other available materials to assist you.

– Groups can communicate quietly with each other but no sharing answers between groups.

• Practice quietly communicating right now?

• Practice Communication Question:

• Your group gets to order one pizza and you can have two toppings. What does your group want?

Questions 1-20 = 5pts EachFinal Category (Bonus) = 1pt Each

Final Questions = 5 pt wagerIf you wager 5 on the last question and get it wrong you lose

5 pts. Wager 5 and get it right you get 5 pts.

Find the Owl = Secretly write “Owl” in the correct box

worth 1pt.
