How to use it

  1. Name your categories and write a question and answer behind each point value. The sample board shows how it looks; change anything.
  2. Choose 2 to 6 categories, 2 to 6 rows and the point values. Leave a tile blank and the game skips it.
  3. Press “Play on the board” and put it on the projector (full screen with F). Click a tile to show the question, then Space for the answer.
  4. Give points to a team with its button or the number keys, then press Done. Print the answer sheet to keep in your hand.

Ideas for class

  • End-of-unit review: one category for each chapter or standard, with easy questions at the top and harder ones lower down.
  • Vocabulary board: put the definition in the question and make the answer the word, or turn it around for a challenge.
  • Test-prep teams: split the class into three or four teams and rotate who answers, so everyone speaks once.
  • Math facts and word problems: a category of mental math, one of word problems and one of vocabulary mixes the practice.
  • Share the board with a co-teacher: Share copies a link that holds the questions after the # sign, so it can be opened on another computer.

Questions

Is this like a TV quiz show board?

Yes in spirit: categories across the top, point values down the side, a question behind each tile. It is our own design and is not made by or connected with any TV show.

How many questions can I put on a board?

Up to 6 categories with up to 6 questions each, 36 tiles. A 5 × 5 board of 25 tiles fits a class period.

Where are my questions and team names kept?

In your browser only. Nothing is sent to us. Team names are remembered on this computer for next time; scores are not. A share link carries the board and never the team names.

Can students use it on their own devices?

It is built for one screen that the whole class watches: you click the tiles. There is nothing for students to log into.

How do I keep score if a team is wrong?

Each team has a minus button that takes away the tile’s points, and a plus button that adds them. The leader’s box turns green.
