These Jeopardy templates will help you create custom Jeopardy games for your students to prepare for a test, review prior information, or be introduced to a new unit.
Students of all ages, from elementary school to high school, enjoy playing Jeopardy as a fun break from traditional learning. They won’t even realize how much they’re learning!
The templates listed below can be opened in PowerPoint or a free presentation software program. Each file can be customized to some degree. Some will have a completely blank board, while others have questions and answers already filled out for you. They can be used for any school subject and are great for homeschooling as well.
There are many other PowerPoint game templates to help your students learn; we especially recommend the Family Feud templates for a fun test review game.
