All teachers on Quizlet can create Live games with their students for FREE.
What you need to create a game:
- A Quizlet study set (with at least 12 unique terms)
- At least six students
- A computer, tablet, or phone for each student
- 10-20 minutes of class time
How does it work?
- Students work together in randomized teams of 3 or 4
- Teams race to match all the terms and definitions
- Incorrect answers reset the team's progress to zero
- The first team to match all 12 terms correctly in a row wins.
- At the end of a game, teams see what what they matched correctly and incorrectly
How to set up a game in your class:
- Set up your computer to project your screen to the class
- Give each student a computer or tablet
- On your computer, go to the set you’d like your students to study
- Select the purple "Live" button in the study mode section. If you don't see the button, you may need to update your account settings so we know you're a teacher.
- On the next screen, select "Create game
ANY GRADE, ANY SUBJECT, ANY DEVICE

Flipquiz provides educators with a quick way to create your own gameshow-style boards for test reviews in the classroom. Traditionally, these are created tediously, using poster board, chalkboards, PowerPoint™ or dry-erase markers on overhead slides. The review questions themselves are usually written on a separate sheet of paper.
With Flipquiz, questions are displayed on-screen and boards are saved for later use. Combined with a beautiful board, students are more likely to be interested and stay engaged with the test review process.
