My fun Christmas music quiz has a variety of rounds and artists aimed at students aged 11-18 with tunes that should be commonly recognisable to students around the world. There’s a good mix of classic Christmas songs, like Wham’s Last Christmas, and more modern artists like Ariana Grande’s Santa Tell Me.
This resource includes a PowerPoint with 76 slides and high quality clips of the songs embedded, a total of 88 marks available. I have also created a student answer sheet and a teacher answer sheet too.
More difficult rounds also include an optional clue - just press the blue clue button!
The rounds include:
- Partridge in a Pear Tree - Can you name each of the twelve animals alongside the instrumental track? (Clue included for this round!)
- Complete the lyric - Fill in the missing lyric for some famous Christmas songs. There will be a music clip which stops before the missing lyric and a gap fill on screen to help students know how many words they’re missing.
- Pop artist Santas - From the most streamed pop stars of 2022-23, can you identify the photo of the pop star hidden under the Santa hat? Also includes an optional clue of each celebrity singing a Christmas song. Artists include BTS, Olivia Rodrigo, The Weeknd, and so on!
- Famous Christmas songs - Listen to the Christmas hit songs that are most often played on the radio. Can you identity the name of the track?
- 8-bit Christmas songs - Famous Christmas songs have been turned into 8-bit tracks (like polyphonic ringtones). Can students identify the song?
- Christmas around the world - Famous Christmas songs sung in other languages (French, German, Chinese, etc). Can students identify the song and the language? This round also includes an optional clue to help students identify the language being used.
- Christmas songs of the 21st century - Can students identify the artist and song title of these more modern pop hits by arts such as Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift and Sia?
