5. Run presentation - question comes up - once students answer hit
Enter - correct answer shows.
Ideas: Run with projector for whole group and let students vote on
correct answer - student can keep tally on count. Split class into
groups and they can work together to discuss the correct answer -
write it on a small whiteboard or piece of paper - student keeps track
of correct scores for each group. Run presentation on student
computers with individual students or pairs. Run presentation in
small group classrooms - students sit around desk and tally scores.
