True-or-False Quiz
Japanese name: 〇×クイズ
Materials
- One pair of true/false cards (〇 and ×) per person
- 5–10 questions with verified answers
How to play
- Prepare questions with clear answers and explanations. Players sit holding true (〇) and false (×) cards.
- Read a question and allow about 10 seconds to think. Agree beforehand whether discussion is allowed.
- Everyone raises one card on the signal. “A triangle has three corners” is true (〇). Do not change a displayed answer.
- Give the answer and a short reason. You may award 1 point per correct answer, but everyone continues after mistakes.
- After all questions, review scores and new discoveries. Volunteers may prepare the next round after checking their questions with an adult.
Ways to adapt
Preschool children: 2–3 picture-supported questions. Younger primary school children: familiar facts. Older primary school children: questions that encourage reasoning.
