Three-category arithmetic board HOST ANSWER KEY - keep private A complete 15-clue Jeopardy-style practice board: three categories, five point values, accepted answers and worked explanations. Use it on paper or enter the clues manually in Quiz Champ. Make three columns for the categories below and five rows worth 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 points. The player sheet contains the clues without the key. Teams take turns selecting one unused clue. Allow about 30 seconds to discuss and submit one answer; allow extra reading time as needed. For this friendly practice format, award the listed value for a correct answer and zero otherwise; do not subtract points. This is a host-selected variation, not official TV rules. Accept correct values with equivalent units. You may invite question-form responses, but that is optional for this practice board. Resolve scoring consistently before play. If teams tie after the board, share the win or prepare an additional checked clue. Quiz Champ is a separate game site; downloaded TXT is a preparation sheet, not an automatic import.
