THE U.S. HISTORY SUPERBOWL GAME

The history of the U.S. is divided into 20 different sections with separate question-and-answer pages which cover such topics as early American Indian nations, the Reconstruction Era, and the Cold War. Four teams are asked questions in turn. After each question, the team discusses it, and the moderator may choose any team member to respond. Many of the questions go beyond factual knowledge and provide students with opportunities to use both cognitive and affective skills such as analyzing and valuing. Players: entire class. Time: 1 or more class periods per section.
