Rules for ⅔ Showdown:
Each team will be competing to earn points in a series of 1 on 1 battles. Using the level 2 and level 3 questions provided by students, the instructor will ask groups to answer these questions and to support their answers with textual evidence. The first team to hit me with a teddy bear wins the right to answer first.
Correct answers receive a point. Incorrect answers receive no points and allow for opposing team to steal. Using the rubric below and indicating different elements via cue card, the class audience will determine if an answer is correct.
Green Card = Correct
Correct answers are those that contain interpretations of depth with relevant and detailed textual support.
Orange Card = Incorrect - Lacking detailed textual support

Yellow Card = Incorrect - Lacking Depth

Red Card = Incorrect - Lacking Relevancy
This card is reserved for responses that make use of textual support that does not have a clear connection to claims. These responses “miss the point.”
