Playing the Game
On the following Mondays, a set of 3 clues from each team will be posted in the Primary Group and the Challenge Group.

Monday Feb 17
Monday, March 3 – ALL Answer sheets must be received
Saturday, March 8 – All answers and scores will be posted on the website.
- While Playing the Game, students study the clues and develop yes/no questions to try and decipher only the landmark clues in their playing level.
- ONE yes/no question may be emailed to each team during each of the three weeks. Questions must be constructed to be answered with Yes or No.
- A total of 3 yes/no questions can be asked of each site, but only one emailed question per week.
- These questions are to be sent DIRECTLY TO THE TEAM’S EMAIL ADDRESS which is found in either the Primary or Challenger Players link.
- Identify your team when asking a question, and Identify your team when responding to a question.
Example from: (2A) The Warriors – This shows your number in your group (2A) and the name of the team (Warriors).
Keeping a tracking folder/log is essential to managing the volume of information that is exchanged in this project.

The project coordinator will post final Answers on the Facebook Group and the Landmark web site. Each team will add their guesses to the answer sheet and send it back to the project coordinator no later than midnight March 3 ET.
Remember: Team Answer Sheets are sent only to the coordinator (Terry Smith), not to the other teams.
