6 thoughts on “Tric a Quiz – West Coast Version”
So Corinne what is the original text you are working from? It sounds like it’s the reading. I only thought of it coming from the Quick Quiz. Let me know on that so we can be clear. Generating a competition from a reading might be better than from a quiz bc you have so much more time to haggle for points with the class. I love this:
…it was a genuine competition, not an educational activity masquerading as a game….
Anyway, click on the Video Release Forms in the category list here on this page to the right, print ’em out, get them signed, and send us a video. This would be very badass for us to see in action. Very badass indeed.
When I tried this out this week, I based it off the reading. It took about 45 minutes.
So it becomes a Tric a Reading Class. Which doesn’t work. But we get so much more time arguing with the class this way off of a reading instead of getting just those few minutes at the end of the class when we go with Tric a Quiz. How about calling it the Bourne Identity, since you identified it? It’s Tric a Quiz with Reading. I’ll make the category.
So…….how do you go about setting this up if the kids have gotten used to the former way of taking the quick quiz. I’m thinking out loud here, but….they’re sitting there with pencils in hand and paper on desk, waiting to hear the first y/n question…..and now how do I get them to understand that I’m changing it up on them and I’m expecting a superstar to debate my statement? I can’t imagine you say to them “this is called Tric a quiz”.
No but you can bait them into it. One superstar can be baited. Or you could just go with what Corinne does and bait them off a story. Start crossing swords with them during a reading and see who gets the points as Corinne describes. This is one of those “there are no rules” things. I would say that at any time in a class, not just the quiz, you could bait them to see who might win a particular pointn – you or them. If it’s not natural like that, don’t do it. It’s all to be fun. Light banter gets it.
Thanks Ben. I see what you’re saying. The ‘ol bait and switch, haha!
