You can also look through your notes to help you teammates if they need it.

Rules and Regulations

Each side of the room will be a team. You will send one representative up to the front at a time.

If your team member gets the question correct, your team gets a point.

We will stay on the same question until someone gets it correct.

Ring your bell and that person gets to answer first. If they are wrong the other person gets a chance. If they are wrong, two more players will get a chance.

You may phone a friend, consult Mr. Beluse, or Ms. Bekker, do a 50/50, or change the question. (The question will be repeated later)
