How can I make the $100 (for example) disappear after we have chosen that question? Is that possible? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYou can use the Flippity add-on in Google Sheets and it does this for you. You would utilize this instead of Google Slides.
DeleteBump: I have the same question as Carter's Dad. I have a Baseball game that is similar to Jeopardy and I'd like to figure out how to make the word or title turn colors or go away when I click it. Thanks for your help...this is a great site!
ReplyDeleteHow can I make a story template for my students?
