Google Slides Quizzes

Hi everybody! It's been a long time! I am now back teaching English to high school students, and it's been lovely to get back into teaching English full time after so many years (although I do love teaching Finnish as well). 

In Helsinki, we've been in distance learning again since the end of November 2020. By now teachers and students are much more prepared than earlier last spring. Teachers all around the world are trying to figure out ways of online teaching that would enable everybody's participation and of course, keep the students motivated and present in the lessons. 

I have found animated Google Slides quizzes to be a really handy, simple and easy tool to both revise and teach new material in a live online lesson (we use Google Meet). The slides are super easy to make, just add your text, pics and most importantly, the animated element to reveal the correct answer! I showed the students the questions online, and they replied in chat, which enabled them all to participate at the same time. 

I just now uploaded two slide quizzes with some background music on YouTube for students to revise. See the full videos here:



I also created a Kahoot! to practise Groups of Animals, check it out here.




That's all for now! Have a lovely day!
Best, Minna
