Abraham Lincoln (Alexander Gardner Portrait)
Instructions
Each “Game” contains ten “Categories.” For example, Game 1 contains the categories Nicknames, Quotes, … , and Executive Orders and Actions. Each category contains five “Items.” For example, Item 1 in the Nicknames category is Father of His Country.
The objective of the game is to state the last name of the president that corresponds to each item in the specified category. For example, for Item 1 in the Nicknames category, the correct answer is Washington. Each correct answer scores one point. Since there are ten categories in a game, a perfect score for a game is 50.
Comment 1
The last name of the president will suffice, unless there are two presidents with the same last name. In such a case, enough initials must be given to decide between the two. For example, Bush is not an acceptable answer. You must state either G. Bush or G.W. Bush.
Comment 2
If more than one president corresponds to a given item, any one of them is acceptable.
