ABSTRACT:
A learning game for a particular factual subject includes a spin wheel having a face bearing question-asking designators apporpriate to the subject. The game also includes a plurality of identical boards, one for each player. Each board bears correct answer designators corresponding to all of the question-asking designators of the spin wheel. Each display also bears at least one designator which is not the answer to any question-asking designator. The players first spin the spin wheel to randomly select a question, board markers are used to cover the corresponding correct answer designators on the board. The spin wheel also includes a non-question-asking designator which gives the player spinning the same the opportunity to freely place a marker on any board designator preferably a designator which is not the answer to any question-asking designator. The game continues until a player has covered all the correct answer designators on his or her board.
