Bring the HQ Trivia Craze to your classroom!

My students, my children, and my friends were all talking about HQ.  If I create an HQ game for my students with questions which are relevant to the learning, I knew that II will have buy-in!

HQ Trivia, the  live trivia game show with cash prizes in which anyone can win if they stay in until the very end! For the first Torah Champs event, I prepared a HQ Game and the energy was amazing! The kids were playing using paper  "score slides" with the questions being presented on the TV screens with me trying to impersonate the comedian Scott Rogowski, the famous HQ host.

Here is the HQ Presentation I had on the screen. 

I downloaded the Google slides presentation into Power Point and I printed 3 slides on a page with the question number and only the answers. that way students need to wait to hear the question.

The students knew the material really well so almost everyone made it to the end!

Learn Trop on Quizlet

My 4th grade students are ready to learn Torah with trop. I prepared this Quizlet course to help them master the טעמי המקרא the most common notes and combinations. With Quizlet Teacher I am able to add a voice recording so that student can see the term a picture of the music note and hear a recording of  the note being sung.
