1. Are You Smarter than a Pre-Calc Student?

   An Extra Point Quiz
2. Are You Smarter than a Pre-Calc Student? “Are You Smarter than a Pre-CalcStudent” is a game in which the first 10 questions the class is playing the game together to earn extra credit points that are accumulated as a group. If the game advances to the bonus question, the students will then be playing individually to risk +/- 5 more extra credit points.
3. Are You Smarter than a Pre-Calc Student? In the classroom designate 10 students to act as the “players” in for the game. The remaining classroom students will act as “classmates” and the “audience” in the game. The student “players” will each pick a number between 1 and 10. The number will correspond to the questions for which that student will act as the player.
4. Are You Smarter than a Pre-Calc Student? Play starts with question and player number 1. During play, each player can choose a pre-calc "classmate", who may be called upon for assistance. For each question there will be a new “player” and a new “classmate” is picked from those who have not yet played in that game. Once the question is read, the player will have 60 seconds to answer the question.

6. Are You Smarter than a Pre-Calc Student? Players have four forms of answer-assistance options (one each per game (up to, but not including, the bonus question)): Peek – The Player is Shown his/her classmates answer and may choose to go along with it or not, however, they must answer the question upon “peeking”.
