This serves as your home slide. When you click on a number, the slide will transition to the designated question.
Once the student or team has given an answer, the teacher can click again to reveal the correct answer.
Jeopardy - Final SOL Review
This particular Jeopardy game is designed to review students for the USVA History SOL exam. However, the game is extremely easy to customize! The game includes music, but I generally keep the sound off - it can tend to get annoying.

Important Dates in USVA History
This PowerPoint covers the important dates that students need to know for the USVA History SOL. I like to use PowerPoints in non-traditional ways; for example - this one printed in 'handout' form can be turned in to a great set of flash cards. It can also be printed and posted in the classroom.
Due to the size of the file, it is only available as a PDF.
