Sound Jeopardy Game – Interactive Review Game

This Sound Jeopardy Game includes a fun, Jeopardy-style game to review how sounds are formed, how sound travels through the phases of matter, pitch, and the relationship between sound and musical instruments. Versions of the science review game are included for both PowerPoint and Google Slides.

What will students review with this Sound Jeopardy Game?

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

• Explain how sounds are formed.
• Describe that sound travels in compression waves and must have a medium to travel through.
• Compare how sound travels through solids, liquids, and gases.
• Define pitch and explain that objects vibrating rapidly have a higher pitch than objects vibrating more slowly.
• Explain how different musical instruments produce sounds.

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 Sound Jeopardy Game for BOTH PowerPoint and Google Slides. The questions used with each version are the same.

How is this sound 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.
