Now we're going to play the "Questionizer" game. The game starts with a question related to Lesson 20. The first student to respond to the initial
question will answer it and will then post a new question about the content of
Lesson 20. The next student will answer the most recent question and will then
post another question. The process repeats until every student answers and
writes one question, creating a long chain of questions and answers in one
single post!
