Review the method of play to be used for the game and the various types
of questions students will encounter during play.

Directions for Play:

1. Distribute one Quizmo Game Board to each player.

2. Make sure everyone has enough markers.

3. Determine which type of questions you will be using either the green side or the blue side.
   * Bordering nations along with major bodies of water have been provided in order to orient children to the approximate location of a country within a continent. Boundary lines have not been indicated to maintain students' focus on a particular country's shape and capital city.

4. Allow the players time to review their Game Boards before starting the game.

5. Select a player to act as a "caller".

6. The Caller announces the winning pattern for the game.
   A.  Five in a row (any direction).
   B.  Five Straight down.
   C.  Four Corners.
   D.  The entire card.
   E.  Caller's Choice - Caller can make up the pattern for winning.  (example: ring around the center square, five spots anywhere etc.)

7. The caller makes sure all the Calling Cards are facing the correct way (by color) and shuffles the deck.  The caller reads the question.  Each player should place a marker on the correct answer may not be on the game board.  The game continues until one player forms the winning pattern.  The winning player then calls out "Quizmo!"
