“I have been using this in 4th and 5th grade and my students are loving it. They stay very engaged and love the competitive aspect. I give 5 bonus points to all the teams who also answer the questions when it is not their teams turn to select and this keeps the whole class engaged. Fantastic and fun resource! Thank you!”
