Leap Frog Game

Leap Frog Game 
  • Have students arrange their game cards on their desks 
  • After the first part of a statement is read using the Power Point presentation, students complete the statement by holding up the most complete correct answer 
  • Students who answer incorrectly must remain in their seats 
  • Students who answer correctly will proceed to the next available seat, “leap frogging” over the students who were incorrect 
  • Play continues until a student returns to his/her original seat 
Rules: 
  • All functions are continuous and twice differentiable. 
  • Once a student holds up a card, they have committed and cannot change cards 

Relationships Game—Part One (Basic Relationships) 
  • Uses the verbal cards (with “changes signs”) 
  • Bonus questions have two correct answers and allow the students to leap frog two desks. A student must hold up both correct cards to be eligible to leap. 

Relationships Game—Part Two (Graphical and Numerical) 
  • Uses the numerical cards 
  • The functions represented by numerical tables are monotonic between data points 
  • Game card values represent x values 
  • Students hold up two cards to represent an interval 

Relationships Game—Part Three (Linear Motion) 
  • Uses the verbal cards (with “equals zero”)
