UPDATED - For Christmas 2024 / End of term or any time! The Ultimate Science Quiz - new, mega quiz for end of year or any time . Fun and silly (but also challenging) for secondary science. A huge range of questions with something to cater for every student’s tastes - 10 rounds covering a wide variety of fun and amusing subjects and topics, all linked to science. It’s not easy - but there are rounds for everyone, so all students will feel involved. There are 100 questions in all - the images shown are a preview of just a few from each round. Everything is editable with answers revealed at the end of each round: Round 1: Science in film, TV and visual media From YouTubers to TikTok to film-flops and TV Trivia - all with a link to science. Round 2: The history of science From to Archimedes to Chris Witty and many others in between. Round 3: Scientist in a suitcase They’ve had enough and packed up on their hols - Can you identify the disguised scientist? Round 4: Science in the news How much do you know about the leaps and bounds made by the scientific community this year? Round 5: Is that Albert Einstein or a Prickly Porcupine?' Can you spot the famous scientist in strange and wonderful locations, or are you being trolled by an attention-grabbing porcupine? Round 6: Higher or Lower Which scientists are the most Googled this year? Round 7: Science in Music Can you name the track and artist and occasionally, the year of these science-related hits? Round 8: Frankenstein’s lab - AI Animal-Merge In this round, students should guess which two animals the AI has merged together in a hideous affront to nature!

The quiz is easy to use, interactive and editable. It’s designed for secondary students. You could tweak it for upper KS2 if you wished - but it is challenging.
