Rules

  • Each team has 15 seconds to write an answer using the resources provided (e.g., dry-erase board, Google doc, scratch paper, etc.).
  • Students can collaborate within their assigned teams but cannot get outside help.
    • Teams automatically lose points for a round if they get help from outside their team (e.g., from another team or using notes).
  • Each team either gains or loses points on each turn.
