The Writing Center College Hour Workshop Series Presents "Grammar Jeopardy!"


Wednesday, October 28, 2009
12:00 – 12:50 p.m.
Brighton Campus
Monroe A (3-205A)
Presenter:  Elizabeth Johnston, English/Philosophy

Damon City Campus
Room 4057
Presenter:  Eileen Lanzafame, Transitional Studies

This fun and wildly popular interactive workshop is modeled after the game show, “Jeopardy.”  The trivia questions, however, focus on 5 common grammatical errors made by students.  Each category is composed of questions ranging from 100-500 points (in ascending order of difficulty).  Students attending the workshop will be divided into teams of four or five and take turns choosing categories and point values.  But be careful!  If you choose a question and answer it incorrectly, points will be deducted from your overall score and the question will go to the next team.  The team to accumulate the most points wins not only enlightenment and glory, but prizes as well!

Hope to see you there!
