  1. Famous and Inspirational Men’s Quiz - download resource

Intro

We all have someone we are inspired by in life.  This quiz looks at all the inspirational men who we may have watched on TV, read about, or learned about their place in history.  From film stars to activists to political leaders and sportsmen.  There are so many to celebrate, especially on International Men’s Day on the 19th November every year.

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!

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 have a go at this on their own
  2. Perhaps encourage the group to reflect upon any men in their lives who have inspired them
  3. Start the quiz
  4. Either read the question to the group or each person in turn
  5. Ask them to guess what the answer might be
  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
  8. Spend time at the end of the quiz continuing any conversations the quiz may have sparked
