 | Similar to Preceding Quiz |
| Requires Teams and Only Limited Space |
This schoolroom type of quiz can be used in a small room with fixed seats or in a home at a Patrol Meeting. If your Scouts are not well prepared in the Tenderfoot Requirements use it before conducting the preceding Tenderfoot Question and Answer Game.
Preparation
Form teams of four each, and seat them in circles or compact groups. Let each group select one member to act as scorer and to assign numbers 1 to 4 to his group members.
The Quiz
Put some fun into the quiz by starting with a tricky question or two. Call a number from 1 to 4 after reading a question. Every player whose number was called quietly tells his team the answer. If correct, his team scores 2 points; if incorrect and a member of the group corrects it before you tell the answer, the team scores 1 point. Read and explain (if necessary) answers on the cards, and let groups use their judgment about scoring.
Tips
Ordinarily time will not permit using all the questions, so select the most important ones and move rapidly from question to question to maintain interest.
