Rules of the game Divide class into two teams, each team will have one half of the court. Click on a basketball to receive a question. If the question is answered correctly 100 points is awarded to the team. That team member can now try and make a basket by shooting the ball at the basket. If the shot is made you will hear a SWEET! from Napoleon Dynamite, and you will get to roll the multiplier dice. Take the number from the dice and multiply it by the 100 points from the correct answer. 100 points x a dice roll of 5= 500 points If the question is missed or the shot is missed return back to the court and use an X to mark out the last selected question. Teams alternate turns
