Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
This is a game for 5th and 6th graders. There are 15 questions and there are 3 lifelines for each team. (About lifelines: 50:50 means that the teacher eliminates two wrong answers; the phone symbol means that someone else in the team is asked to answer the question; the symbol with the crowd means that all the students in the class vote for the answer that they believe is correct).
You can play it in two ways.
I. (using the same quiz)
Split your classroom into 3 groups and invite the first player from each group to answer the same question by writing the answer (A, B, C, or D) on a piece of paper. If one of them wants to use a lifeline, let the other players mark their answers on the paper first, and then proceed with the lifeline.
II. (using three different quizzes)
Split your classroom into 3 groups and then have them take turns answering multiple-choice questions until they get a question wrong and lose the game.
Players can choose to use a lifeline (50:50, call a friend, ask the audience) at any stage during their team’s turn. As they move from question to question, they earn points.
Since the questions I use slowly get harder, I allow the team members before the game starts to stand up, rank themselves according to their own criteria and strategies, and then go to their seats. After that, the host starts the game show.
The first student is asked the first question (usually a very easy one) and if he gets it right, the host invites the second student in the group to answer a question, and so on. During the quiz, players aren�t allowed any help from their peers (unless they’re using a lifeline).
Give it a try, have fun, and feel free to replace the questions with content you want to revise or consolidate.
