Speed Blitz

A free live quiz game for the classroom

A fast quiz where the whole class answers the same question at the same time. Right answers score more the quicker they come.

The class board during a game of Speed Blitz.

How a round plays

  1. Everyone sees the same question at the same time, with a timer.
  2. A right answer scores up to 1,000 points. The faster it comes, the more it scores.
  3. A wrong answer scores nothing and ends the streak. Some rounds are power rounds, such as double points.
  4. The answer and the leaderboard show after each question. The highest score at the end wins.

On the board: The question in large type, the answers filling up as pupils reply, then the right answer and the quickest pupil.
