• To select a question, ask for a category and a point value. For example, Kana for 100.

RULES• Do not say or shout answers ever. If you do so, your team will lose 5 pts each time.

• If a student gets the question right, he/she will select another question.

• If a student gets a question wrong, another student on the team may answer the question by raising his/her hand. He will be called by Mrs. Oda and then may show the answer on the board within 30 seconds. When the first team has had 2 turns, the other team now gets 2 turns.
