Let’s Be Honest… Reviewing Rules Isn’t a Crowd Favorite
It’s the first week of school. You’re pumped. The classroom looks great. The pencils are sharpened.
And then… it’s time to go over rules, procedures, and expectations.
Cue the groans.
It’s not your fault—this stuff is important. But let’s face it: standing at the front of the room explaining where to line up and how to raise a hand can only be so exciting.
So instead of repeating yourself for the fifth time before lunch, let your students review the expectations game-show style with Classroom Rules Jeopardy.
What’s Included (Besides the Sanity Saver)
Inside the download, you’ll find:
- ✅ A Jeopardy-style game board in both Google Slides and PowerPoint
- ✅ 5 editable categories:
- Morning Routines
- Behavior Expectations
- Transitions
- Group Work
- Class Tech
- ✅ Sample questions to help you get started
- ✅ Clickable navigation that makes it super easy to run
- ✅ Editable text boxes so you can add your own rules, routines, and examples
Heads up: You’ll need to type in your own answers before playing. (It’s easy—I promise.)
Why Teachers Love This Game
➡️ It’s Customizable
Don’t like a category? Swap it out. Want to add specific hallway procedures or lunch rules? Go for it. Every piece of this game is editable so you can tailor it to your classroom.
➡️ It Works for All Grade Levels
Whether you teach in an elementary homeroom or rotate between 7th grade periods, this game fits. It works in self-contained, departmentalized, and even secondary classrooms. (Yes, even 8th graders still secretly love a game.)
➡️ It Makes Expectations Stick
Students are doing something instead of just nodding politely while you talk. This game makes them think through the rules—and actually remember them.
A Better Way to Start the Year
You don’t need to rely on lectures or printed rule posters to teach your routines. With Classroom Rules Jeopardy, you’ll still teach expectations—but this time, they might actually listen. (And they might even ask to play again.)
