Activity: Science Individual Quiz Bee

Description: As STEM students, we’ve always been stocking up on countless information about various scientific
and mathematical concepts without being able to make use of them outside these classroom-administered activities.
Years are still ahead of us before we can utilize these studies through our various professions, so why not make use
of that knowledge, at the same time develop it by taking part in these Science and Math Quiz Bees?

Mechanics:
- The quiz features three rounds: easy, average, & difficult.
- The easy round consists of multiple choice questions, weighing 1 point each.
- The average round consists of identification-type questions, weighing 3 points each.
- The difficult round consists of identification-type questions, weighing 5 points each.
- Each question will be read twice, afterwards a signal sound will be played to indicate the start of the timer for
answering.
- The time duration for answering on each round are the ff: easy-10, average-15s, difficult-30s.
- Must bring your own ⅛ illustration board and chalk.
- Bringing of the periodic table of elements and scientific or any type of calculator is NOT allowed.
- The three participants with the highest number of points acquired will be awarded 1st, 2nd, & 3rd places
accordingly.

Topics Scope:
(Science Lessons from Grades 11-12)
