THIS IS NOT T-BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU WILL NOT GET A TROPHY FOR TRYING

REALLY REALLY HARD!!!!!!!!
YOU HAVE TO EARN IT!!!!!!!
STUDY!!!!!!!
Rules for Group
Review
You must work with your group.
Only one person may answer for your
group.
You may not talk during other groups
turns or your group will lose points.
If you repeat an incorrect answer, your
group will lose points.
You may not use anything during Group
Review except your brains.
If voice levels cannot be controlled, we will
stop playing and instead have a pop quiz.
Bonus Round!!!!
At the end of each scoring round, there will be an
opportunity for Garbage Ball.
For this, one member from each team will be
given the chance to try to shoot the Garbage Ball
into the small garbage can.
If the team member makes the shot, the team
earns that rounds points as extra points.
In the case of excessive cheering, teams can be
penalized.
In the case of excessive insulting, teams can be
penalized.

Sally heard that if you freeze lifesavers, they will
melt faster. For her science project she has
decided to measure how fast lifesavers will
melt in water if they are frozen, kept in the
refrigerator, and left on the counter. She will
leave one lifesaver on the counter, one in the
refrigerator, and one in the freezer over night.
The next morning, she puts each of them in a
separate bowl of water. Every two hours, she
checks the progress and records the
information.
