This is the 14th annual geographygeek Christmas quiz. It’s designed to bridge the gap between an end of term ‘fun lesson’ and learning. It is used all over the world. The quiz contains 12 rounds and a bonus round. Each round gives clues from a news story about a specific country. Students have to guess which country the story is from. Once they get the answer correct, they earn a ‘hat’ worth: 5 points if correct after the first clue 4 points if correct after the second clue 3 points if correct after the third clue 2 point if correct after the fourth clue 1 point if correct after the fifth clue They must then cut out the hats and use them to make a Christmas scene, which they can gain extra points for at the end. All resources, such as instructions, the PowerPoint, the handouts and the ‘hats’ are provided.
