Fun questions teachers can use for quizzes: A collection of conversation-sparking, bonding topics (1–10)
What do you wish you had done when you were a child?NEW!
Many people would say that as children, they were busy just getting through each day—going to school, attending lessons, and playing with friends.
If you’re spending your childhood right now, that might be true for you as well.
Even so, as we grow older, it’s not uncommon to think, “I wish I had done this back then,” or “If I had done that, my future might have been different.” Try asking the teachers—the adults close to you—what they wish they had done when they were children.
You might discover something new, gain a fresh insight, or find something that makes you think, “I want to try that too!”
What’s your favorite school lunch menu item?NEW!
When we’re kids, we eat school lunches every day, and everyone has menus they like and ones they don’t.
As adults, we rarely get the chance to eat school lunch, but teachers are the only ones who can still have it even after growing up.
Let’s ask teachers what their favorite menu item is right now.
Unlike children’s tastes, you might hear some unexpected answers.
Also ask what they liked when they were kids to see how their tastes have changed—or whether they’ve stayed the same.
Because it’s a familiar topic—food—it’s a question that’s sure to spark a lively conversation!
What was your nickname when you were a student?NEW!
When it comes to nicknames, they’re affectionate names you use to call close friends.
Especially during school days, it’s common to give each other nicknames.
How about asking “What was your nickname in school?” as a fun theme for a teacher quiz? You’ll likely hear all kinds of answers: puns on surnames or given names, nicknames based on celebrities they resembled, or ones inspired by their mannerisms or personality at the time.
Learning a teacher’s school-era nickname helps you imagine what they were like back then—and it’s sure to liven things up!
What would you spend 100 million yen on if you won the lottery?NEW!
We don’t really talk about money with teachers very often, do we? Including this question in a teacher quiz makes it interesting because you can discover unexpected viewpoints.
For elementary school students, it’s a hard topic to even imagine, so seeing how a familiar adult—their teacher—would answer can make for a fun quiz that draws laughter and surprise depending on the response.
Digging into why they chose that answer could make it even more engaging.
How someone would use money gained purely by luck, without effort, seems to reveal their true nature and could be very insightful.
What would you do if the Earth were to end tomorrow?NEW!
The kind of quiz that makes you groan over your answer—“If the world were going to end tomorrow, what would you do?”—is a fun question that brings out all sorts of responses! We take everyday life for granted, but what if it suddenly wasn’t? If you knew the Earth would be destroyed tomorrow, how would you spend your time? Visit someone important to you, travel to a place you’ve always wanted to go, dive into your hobbies, tie up loose ends… Ask ten people and you might get ten different answers.
It’s sure to spark a lively discussion, and you might even draw out some surprising thoughts from your teacher in this ultimate choice.
What would you like to eat for your last supper?NEW!
When it comes to classic, crowd-pleasing “ultimate questions,” there’s the ever-popular: “What would you want for your Last Supper?” If the world were ending tomorrow, what would you choose for your final meal? Some people would pick their favorite dish, others might choose a nostalgic flavor from their past, or a luxury ingredient they’ve never tried.
Some might say they wouldn’t eat anything special at all and would prefer their usual meal.
There are probably also those who wouldn’t name a food, but rather the person they’d eat with—saying that anything would be fine as long as it’s with that person.
It’s a fun quiz that reveals a teacher’s likes and values.
If you could bring only one thing to a deserted island, what would it be?NEW!
In a world overflowing with conveniences, what if everything we take for granted suddenly disappeared? Just imagining it sends chills down the spine.
If you were alone on an uninhabited island and could bring only one thing, what would you choose? Many people would likely say a memento, a photo, a smartphone or game, or food and water.
Some might even choose not a thing, but their beloved dog or a special person.
Let’s use this as a fun quiz to learn about the teacher’s treasures and values—and ask for the reasons to spark a lively discussion!
