Kids Make the Quiz

Kids Make the Quiz is a great way to prepare your students for taking multiple choice tests. Oh, no! More tests? Well, yes. However, this activity is much more involved than kill and drill.

First, students need to design a question. Second, they need to develop both correct and reasonably wrong answers choices. Third, some questions may involve creating illustrations. Using visuals is a powerful reinforcing tool for both the quiz maker and the quiz taker.

Students can create their quiz slides using various slide-based programs and apps, including PowerPoint, Google Docs, Pixie, 30 Hands, etc. The teacher can compile the slides using various quiz making tools, including TurningPoint, Beyond Question, Kahoot, Socrative, etc.

See how much fun your students will have making and taking their own quizzes!

Examples:


Math Terms Quiz - Grade 3
Literary Terms Quiz - Grade 3

The above examples were made in Turning Point. A Kahoot example coming soon...
