How to setup: On the outline tab go to questions on Slide 10 – 21 and write your questions and edit the answers placing the correct answer where it says correct answers.
How to play the game: Divide your class into 4 groups and designate each team a vehicle. Whoever gets the questions right, click on the vehicle two times to move it two spaces if the team got the question correct without using the “HELP”. If the team used help, then the team only receives one move. By clicking on the vehicle it will move part way across the screen. First team to land wins.
