BLUFF REVIEW

HOW TO PLAY BLUFF

The class is divided into 2 teams (the north and the south). The north team will choose a slide number. Each slide has a review question. When the slide is shown on the white board the south team will be given the opportunity to answer.

After the question is read the students on the answering team are to stand up if they know the answer and stay seated if they do not. After the teacher counts to 5 the students standing are the only ones that may answer. The asking team then chooses one student from the answering team to answer the question.

It the chosen student answers correctly their team earns as many points as there are team mates standing. If they answer incorrectly their team loses as many points as there are team mates standing.

1. Teacher calls on a player to choose a number.

2. Teacher shows the slide and reads the question assigned to that number.

3. Every player on the other team who knows the correct answer stands up.

4. The player who chose the number, then chooses a standing player to answer the question.

5. If the answer is correct the answering team gets a point for every person standing.

6. If the answer is incorrect, the answering team loses a point for every person standing.

7. The opportunity to choose a number passes to the other team

SIDE RULES: TO KEEP THINGS SIMPLEoThe same person cannot be called on to answer

two turns in a row. oOnce a question is answered – either correctly or

incorrectly - it is dead. The other team cannot answer it for points.

oThe teacher decides whether the answer given is correct or not.

oThe teacher is the only ref.

o If anyone blurts out an answer or tries to help the person who has been called on, the question is dead and their team loses a point for each person standing. Plus the blurter is suspended from the game for the next 5 questions.

o If anyone blurts a second time, they are suspended for the rest of the game and the other side is awarded the points just earned by the team containing the blurter. This is a double whammy as the blurter’s team must subtract the points from their score, plus the opposing team gets to add the points to their total.

o The same rules apply to someone on the opposing team trying to confuse their opponents by blurting out false answers.

o The ref (the teacher) is the judge in both cases.
