Help me write a christmas/end of year quiz

[matt b]

I do this every year for students, but lack a bit of inspiration at the moment, so can you help?

Questions about this year's music that young people might like (an area where i'm REALLY lacking, current affairs, funny ones etc) welcome.

 

[STN]

ask about the canoeist!

 

[hucks]

On a music that kids like tip...

Complete this phrase: My name's Shaniqua and (blank)

The answer is "What?", which will lead to no end of laughs, I'm sure. Apparently all kids know this.

Edit: I suppose it depends a little on how old the kids are.

I don't understand the question! 16-19 years of age.

I've done some on 'guess the album art'. If I have time I may use that quietus mime quiz.

It's always well worth doing an intros round - you get to play some music instead of asking questions.

Also hand out a bit of A4 with photos of celebrities on it. Then just ask "who are these people and why were they in the news this year" (1 point for each).

Or "who have they been shagging / romantically linked with". But that may not be appropriate in this instance.

As for music just see what is on "NOW xxxx" - I think there have been 2 this year. I can burn/send one of them if you like

You're allowed "dance wiv me" and "wearing my rolex, I think.

 

[STN]

Ask who came second in this year's big brother.

 

[matt b]

john- don't worry about sending stuff, its not that important!

thanks

It's a quote from N-Dubz. When I saw the guy on Never Mind the Buzzcocks, i thought it was one of the lesser-known members of East 17, after having spent 10 years frying their brain with smack.

I caught the very end of that show the other day. The guy appears to be an incarnation of the Platonic ideal of rudeboy. As opposed to the bloke from Towers Of London who was on it a while back, who appears simply to be the Platonic ideal of a fuckhead.

i've also done a round where students have to guess the news story from a HYS comment.

(thanks speak your branes!)

That's a good one. How about a round where they have to try and distinguish real HYS comments from ones generated with the Twat-O-Tron?
