Light Jeopardy Game – Interactive Review Game

This Light Jeopardy Game includes a fun, Jeopardy-style game to review light waves, the visible spectrum, reflection and refraction, and how light interacts with different materials. Versions of the science review game are included for both PowerPoint and Google Slides.

What will students review with this Light Jeopardy Game?

25 questions are included to review and practice the following skills:

• Label and describe the parts of a light (transverse) wave including the crest, wavelength, and trough.
• Describe the relationship between wavelength and the color of light.
• Describe white light.
• Compare the reflection and refraction of light.
• Identify objects as transparent, translucent, or opaque. Explain how much light is able to pass through each type of object.
• Describe examples of radiant energy transfer in nature and the man-made world.

Each question is linked to a slide with the answer so that students can quickly and easily check their answers.

What formats of the game are provided?

This resource includes versions of the Light Jeopardy Game for BOTH PowerPoint and Google Slides. The questions used with each version are the same.

How is this light interactive game played?

The PowerPoint version should be played in presentation mode. Category values disappear when they are clicked on. The category values can be reset anytime by exiting the presentation and reopening it. You are able to type scores onto a scoreboard while playing in presentation mode. The presentation has been coded to help you easily navigate from the category board to questions and answers without scrolling.

The Google Slides version should be played in full screen, edit mode. Instructions and a video tutorial are provided that show how this is done. You are able to type scores onto a scoreboard but the category values do not disappear when they are clicked on. This is a limitation of Google Slides. But, markers are provided alongside the category board that you can drag and drop over the category values after they have been used. The presentation has been coded to help you easily navigate from the category board to questions and answers without scrolling.
