Merv Griffin Created It

My students need the Classroom Jeopardy game.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. G.'s classroom raised $633

This project is fully funded

Answer: Merv Griffin created it. Its been rated #2 among the 50 Greatest Game Shows of All Time. Its latest incarnation has aired continuously on television since September 10, 1984. And our school would love to have the electronic version of it. Question: What is Jeopardy? I am a dedicated science teacher in a school of 500 students and many challenges. Besides teaching 8th grade science, I co-chair student council. I am one of a dedicated group of teachers at our middle school working hard to make education come alive. For many reasons, the elective classes have disappeared from the curriculum at our school. Gone is art, drama, music, and more. Working through student council, we staff members sponsor school wide programs and events to provide alternate opportunities for students and teachers to showcase their unique knowledge, talents and skills. Electronic Jeopardy would give our organization and our classroom teachers a marvelous tool for having exciting academic contest between classes and between teams of students. Your help will send our students home at the end of the school day with something exciting to tell their parents or caregivers. Answer: When something would be widely used and highly prized. Question: What is Appreciated?
