TRIVIAL GAME

Teaching: An effective key to self-learningThis project was funded by European Union.

PRESENTATION OF INTERNATIONAL TEAM COOPERATION

Tasks for the Czech team:

• To write 40 questions about the Czech Republic

• To write 40 questions from Biology

• To write these questions into templates prepared by Belgium team

• To write the correct answer in bold in the template

• To write 3 wrong options for each question in the template

TEAM WORK• We invited pupils from classes 7. A, 7. B, 8. A and 8. B to help us

to write questions about our country• We divided them in small mixed groups and each group wrote

almost 40 questions and answers during two lessons• We compared their questions and used those which were

asked by each or most groups• By this method we hope that we collected facts which Czech

pupils think people should now from our history, geography and culture

• Our team added the wrong options and the missing questions• Biology questions were limited by the terminology. We decided

to find the fastest, biggest, heaviest, smallest and so on animals, birds, fish, and plants

• Our biology questions we tried out in class 6. A, pupils also practiced the superlative forms of English adjectives which is part of their curriculum

Recycling – using our questions in P. E. lesson for Belgium pupils

• We worked really hard on our questions and writing them in the templates was also time consuming

• We are skeptical about playing TRIVIAL GAME very often and we wanted to find another way how to use the questions

• First way was to implement our questions into English curriculum in our school• Then we decided to use them in our P. E. lesson because we planned to have a

relay and also ask pupils questions and give them points and make them run• So the result is that we give the pupils a task. When they get to the end, there is

a team member for each group holding our question cards. • Pupils who answer correctly, gain the card. • When the relay is over, pupils don´t have all cards. So there is game called

TRIVIAL HUNT. Cards are guarded by our blind folded team members and two our team members are hunters who throwing soft balls at the pupils. Pupils who are caught or hit, must squat and wait for rescue

• Finally, when the time is over, pupils turn over the cards and solve the puzzles with Czech state symbols and sights. We wanted to have puzzle in our P. E. lesson anyway, so we used our cards but we change the template, also the correct answers are not written in bold as we let the pupils to read them
