Description
The class is put into their usual groups (typically 8 groups of 4), with one whiteboard, marker, and eraser.
The ALT runs the PowerPoint, doing the demo round with the JTE. The ALT reads out the question or task, and the JTE writes their answer on the main blackboard. The ALT declares when time is up, and whiteboards need to be shown. JTE mimics raising their whiteboard, and ALT reads out the answer. 1 point to the JTE.
Scores are kept on the board, and each question has a time limit, adjusted to the level of the class. The ALT reads out the question as it appears on the projector, and teams work together to write up an acceptable answer. At the end of each question, the ALT and JTE check the answers, and the JTE keeps score on the main blackboard. The whiteboard is then passed to the next student within their group, and the quiz continues.
Some questions need adjusting in terms of both the question or the time given to answer. Questions that need adjusting are those relating to student numbers, 2023 numbers were used. Different schools can be picked to keep it relevant to the students, or countries for the Big Mac set can be changed. Slide 23 can have the stop hand gesture removed, this was placed to give a bonus point for the student who correctly identifies the country Aoraki Mt Cook is in (New Zealand, mentioned in previous classes). For free answers, sometimes bonus points were given for interesting answers.
