Playing Our Compound Sentences Interactive Games

Our compound sentences interactive games are fun, exciting, and easy to use in the everyday classroom. This Google Slides / PowerPoint interactive game is designed to be similar to the popular TV show Jeopardy© and is sure to engage your students like never before. To play this game, here are a few important tips before beginning.

  • Have students get out a marker and marker board (or notebook).
  • Open the file in Google Slides or PowerPoint (Presentation Mode)
  • Start the game by clicking on the FIRST question in the first column and have students record their answers. When complete, take a consensus and select an answer while students record the point amount if they got it correct.
  • The game will return to the game board screen, where you will click on the next point amount in the same column, continuing as before.
  • Once a column is complete, move on to the next column, working from top to bottom, until all questions and columns are complete.

IMPORTANT NOTE: To avoid skipping questions, please complete all of the questions in each column from top to bottom before moving to the next column.

Students can also play this game independently if you’d prefer to use it as a self-checking writing activity.
