A. Ah, wiley test quiz. It's an odd creature indeed and it is very rarely encountered in wild. In fact, you are a very lucky student to have a teacher that even knows what a test quiz is much less is wiling to administer one.

A test quiz is a preparatory quiz that is given in advance of a major test. Its purpose is to familiarize you with type of questions that are going to be asked on major test without revealing actual questions that will be asked.

For example, if you've ever taken PSAT test, then you've taken a test quiz. The PSAT test is designed to prepare you to take actual SAT tests that many colleges require high school students to take before applying for admission.

A. A fun quiz is an excellent way to keep kids occupied especially during vacation months when learning takes a hiatus.

The key to designing a fun quiz is to keep subjects relevant to things that interest your children while managing to stretch limits of their knowledge.

A fun quiz does not have to be so easy that it's seen as a joke, nor does it have to be boring. Here's an example:

Let's say that one of your children enjoys playing with American Girl dolls and her favorite is Kirsten. Now, we all know that Kirsten moved to United States from Sweden when she was a little girl, right?

Instead of asking a fun quiz question like "Where did Kirsten live before moving to United States?", which any devoted Kirsten fan knows answer to already, you could ask: "What colors are on Flag of Sweden, where Kirsten used to live?". This serves purpose of bringing subjects into fun quiz that your children are interested in, yet it stretches limits of their knowledge and forces them to learn while having fun!
