Pictogram quiz for the classroom

A free quiz game to play with the whole class: the teacher builds it with pictograms, images or video, pupils answer on a tablet and the board shows how the game is going.

The Quiz editor with the quiz “Animals”: the list of questions on the left and, on the right, the open question with its pictogram answers

Who it's for

For any teacher who wants to review vocabulary, a topic or a unit in a way pupils experience as a game. With pictograms in the questions and the answers, pupils who cannot read well yet, or who are still learning the classroom language, can play too. There is nothing to mark: the app counts the points.

How to use it

  1. Write the questions, with an image or a pictogram if you like, and tick which answers are correct.
  2. Give the quiz a title so it is saved to your account, and put it in the class.
  3. Open the waiting room on the board: pupils join from their tablets and answer, and the results show on the screen and in My classes.

Variations

  • Four ways to answer: any correct one counts, pick all the correct ones, pick the wrong ones, or write the answer.
  • Each question can carry images, pictograms, a GIF or a YouTube video (the video shows on the board), plus a time limit and points if you want.
  • You can play in teams: pupils are split into teams and each team gets the average of its members' points.
  • Without signing in you can build the quiz, try it with “See it as a student” and browse the “Example quizzes”; to play it with the class you need to sign in.
