pop quiz!

[Scarlett]

I have to run a pop quiz at College for the end of term. I want to have funny rounds not just boring question and answers. The students are all 16-18 so will have failr limited knowledge, so the questions can't be too hard!

Any ideas of what I could do to make it fun??

you could do a beat the intro round.They really do my head in though cos i sit there all night humming stupid songs and can never remember the names,funny though.

You could do a lyrics round ...ask which song the line comes from? You can find the words to just about any songs on the net

You could do 'random' round. I use to do one at my local every week and it had a round that was completely irrelevent. One week it was about Belgium, Bananas, NatianalaHolidays . As this round is usually for fun the top 3 teams or everyone with more than 5/10 for example for this round had to take part in a challenge to win a prize. This task could include making a paper aeroplane to see who could throw it the furthest or musical chairs or beer mat flipping. Hope this may give you an idea?

You could do picture rounds with famous music types.

A few years ago, me and my mate set a music quiz for a bunch of lasses we know. It included loads of funny rounds, one of which were lyrics that all sounded the same, such as;

Q1. Na na, na-na-na na na na na na na na... (which is obviously the opening line to King's Alone without you).

Q2. Na-na-naa-na, na-na-naa-na... (Steam's or Bananarama's Na-na hey hey goodbye of course).

Q3. Na-na-na-na-naaaa, na-na-na-na-naaaa (Ronan Keating, Life is a Roller Coaster).

Q4. Laa, la-la-la-la-laaaah, lah-la-la-la-laaah, la-la-la-la-laaah (crocodile Rock, Elton John).

You get the idea. Once we started thinking we came up with loads, all naaas, then all laaas, daaas, dooos, dooby doos, the list went on.

The lasses phoned us up and said they couldn't write the answers in for laughing (wasn't their exact words but you get the drift! Imagine their faces if you read a few of these out!

You could also do a picture round with faces morphed or mixed. http://www.morpheussoftware.net/ This allows you to download a free morphing tool.
