Intro

Quizzes are fantastic for encouraging people to use their cognitive skills in a fun way.  This activity can get competitive at times, but reassure people that it doesn’t matter if they get the answers wrong. It’s all about getting the grey matter working!

All the answers in this quiz begin with each letter of the alphabet in order. 

Play the quiz just for fun – or keep score and award the winner with a small prize.  The quiz is available as a question sheet, in case anyone would like to do the quiz on their own first. Then you can share the answers with them afterwards.

The Activity

  1. Gather the group together or sit with the person if one to one, or give the person the questions sheet if they would like to do this on their own
  2. Either read the questions aloud to the group or to each person in turn
  3. Ask them to guess what the answer might be
  4. If someone is struggling to answer, the group can step in and help, or you can give them some clues
  5. Sometimes someone might know the answer but struggle to find the words to say it. If this happens, congratulate them for knowing anyway and give them the answer
  6. Congratulate every answer, even if it’s wrong, as every attempt is a good brain workout
  7. If you’re playing competitively, keep scores and award the winner a small prize
