Perkinston, MS Grades 3-5

I am the 5th grade Science teacher in a rural, high-need MS school that has experienced major budget cuts.

Many of my students are not provided with a chance to learn sportsmanship skills outside of school. I believe providing the students with review using a game setting would not only help to teach sportsmanship, but also help to hold the students attention far better than a study guide alone or oral review. What better way to get their attention than to get them involved in a little competition.

A classroom jeopardy game will provide students with a great way to look forward to reviewing that test material. I expect to see an increase in test scores, due to an increase in attention to review.

I'll take funding for $500, Alex. OK, test scores increased and students reported enjoying reviews. Alex, What is a wonderful donor helped fund the jeopardy for classrooms game for this class!!! That is correct kind donor! Thank you
