2021 continues into March with the lockdown lifting a little more and face to face lessons continue between testing sessions over this first fortnight return from the lockdown!

What a week once again -with Easter hols fast approaching this one covers until 19th April when most schools return! England World Cup qualifier, March weather record, new Peaches single, world’s happiest country revealed, 700th cartoon episode, 800 year volcano eruption, British boxer victory, super-container ship gets stuck, Chemtrails Over The Country Club at number one and a strange surprise in Georgia ! What will the rest 2021 hold in store for us all? There’s only one way to find out - in the NEEEEEEWWWWSSS QUUUUUUUIIIIIZZZ! :)

New quiz uploaded each week of the term, ALL YEAR LONG! More than ten years and still going strong :) Many thanks to everyone who downloads this, it is very much appreciated and I’m glad it is useful for your form groups!

13 topical questions of the past week’s news, across the UK and the world.

Designed to be used as a 10-20 minute activity in formtime - you could make it a little longer by talking about and discussing some of the questions.

ANY MIS-SPELLINGS/MISSING CAPITALS ETC. IN THE PREVIEW ARE INTENTIONAL AND LINK TO THE LITERACY QUESTIONS IN THE REST OF THE QUIZ!

Powerpoint so can be used on a standard whiteboard.

Includes 2 literacy and 1 numeracy questions based on the other questions.

Works well as a form group activity in registration time - I give sweets to the winning team (we’re not supposed to give sweets out, so it’s a nice ‘naughty’ reward and makes (some of) them watch and check their apps about the news in the week. :) So glad to be back and able to do this as a form finally!
