Why I Love Quizizz

I love to play educational games with my students in class.  Kids often forget they are learning something in the middle of these high energy sessions.  New online resources make classroom games even easier to create.  In this post I would like to introduce Quizizz, and online multiplayer game that allows your students to have fun and learn at the same time. 

Like other online quiz programs, you can build and design your own quizzes quickly and easily.   Pictures are easily integrated into question types and the presentation to the student is very clean.  One advantage over platforms is that questions are given at random to all students at the same time.  They do not need to see the live game to answer questions.

You can also search other public Quizizz creations.   Working on Verbs?  An ancient culture?  You can pick and choose questions from other teachers in one click.  This is the easiest I have seen this feature in any online quizzing program.

​During the game, a leader board is posted for the students.  Points are given for correct answers and how fast you answer.  Students are constantly jockeying for position as they work through questions.   This is all set to an engaging music file.  Students who answer correctly are given an encouraging meme while incorrect answers are subjected to an angry cat face (you have options here).   

As a teacher I enjoy this program.  All students stay engaged, not feeling left behind.  In addition, you can assign these as homework, which makes for a great test review.  My favorite part is that this program is free, so what are you waiting for, try it out!
