POWERPOINT QUIZ - Who wants to be a scientist?

SCIENCEBUSTERS QUIZ - quiz for two teams

ON-LINE QUIZ SITES - Website sources for questions

Who wants to be a scientist? is based on a well-known quiz format. It is a PowerPoint presentation, using overheads. You may want to print these out in black and white.

Questions are based around the Physical Processes teaching programme. After you have saved the PowerPoint quiz to your computer you can customise the questions as you wish. Each team will need their three lifeline cards to use once in the game. The game runs for about 20-30 minutes with three teams. You do need the killer question at the end for tie-breaks. Contact local museums and cinemas for complimentary tickets and pens etc., to use as prizes.

The game, for two teams, runs for about twenty minutes.
