Activity Sequence INTRODUCTION/HOOK
1. Explain that in this lesson, students will work in groups to develop Jeopardy-style review questions based on the content and skills they have learned in the financial literacy unit. Student teams will also participate in a classroom Jeopardy game. (2 Minutes)
ACTIVITY Day #1 – Creating the Questions
1. Explain the following:
a. Groups of 3-5 students will work together to create Jeopardy-style questions on the content, terms, and concepts learned in the financial literacy unit. b. Student groups will later participate in the Jeopardy game to demonstrate their understanding of financial literacy concepts. (3 Minutes)
2. Once student groups have been formed, provide time for the students to write Jeopardy-style questions as follows:
a. Each group should write five questions and answers for each of the following financial literacy content categories: Earning Income, Saving, Using Credit, Protecting and Insuring, and Financial Investing.
OPTIONAL: With time being a major factor, teachers may choose to have students develop questions for only the first two categories - Earning Income and Savings. If this option is used, a number of sample questions for the remaining categories are provided. See Sample Jeopardy Questions- Using Credit, Protecting and Insuring, and Financial Investing (Included in the lesson).
b. Each Jeopardy question should be written in varying degrees of difficulty with questions worth 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 points (10 point questions being the easiest and 50 point questions the hardest).
c. All questions should be in Jeopardy format. For example: Not putting “all your eggs in one basket” describes this investment strategy. (What is diversification?)
3 d. All questions should be identified by the Category and Amount (e.g., ., Financial Investing, 50 points)
OPTIONAL: Teachers may choose to have students write their questions on the Student Activity sheet entitled , Jeopardy Questions (Included in the lesson).
3. Collect all questions from each student group.
Day #2 – Playing the Game
SUGGESTED GAME OPTIONS:
1. To play Jeopardy, teachers may select the game option that works best for their class and schedule.
a. Teacher-Developed Game – In this option, the teacher selects the questions for the Jeopardy game by using the questions written by the students the previous day. If this option is used, two rounds may be played – Jeopardy and Double Jeopardy. Also, if time permits, consider playing several rounds so more student groups may participate.
b. Student-Developed Game: This option requires the students to develop and manage the Jeopardy game. Select one or more of the student groups to organize the Jeopardy game by selecting questions from those they wrote the day before. If this option is selected, more class time will be needed to give student groups time to select the questions and set up the game.
2. After deciding what option to use to play Jeopardy, explain the following general game rules:
a. Each group must select a spokesperson. Only that person may state the answer. This person will raise their hand if their group knows the answer. b. The question will be read in its entirety. The teacher will call on the student spokesperson who raised their hand first to respond. c. The group will have 10 seconds to confer with their group before they must answer the question. The answer must be in question format; e.g., What is a Certificate of Deposit? d. No one can shout out the answer or the group will have points deducted from their score. e. If the group answers correctly, they receive the points allotted for that question and they control the board by picking the next category and amount. If incorrect, the groups will take turns controlling the board. f. If they answer incorrectly, the points for the question are deducted from their overall score. The second spokesperson to raise their hand will then be allowed to answer the question. g. Once all of the categories and amounts are complete, the game is over.
CLOSURE Allow each group to select one question from their collection that they feel is the hardest. Play “Stump the Class” with these final questions (5-10 minutes)
4 OPTIONAL EXTENSION SUGGESTION/HOME LEARNING
For block-scheduled classes, homework, or as a lesson extension activity, have students write a five- paragraph essay responding to the following prompt:

A scoring rubric is provided for the teacher’s consideration (Included in the lesson).
