THE QUIZ

Ok, so I asked the students to create a quiz for the other periods. First period makes a quiz for third period, and vice versa. This is my sneaky way of getting them to study without making it feel like studying. They have to get their facts straight in order to create a proper quiz, right?

I got some pretty hilarious quiz questions: Here they are (see if you can get them right):

Who died during the plague?
A) 25 million humans
B) 2 million humans
