Why teachers and parents start with their own material

Teachers and parents who want a quiz maker for kids usually begin with a worksheet, a unit slide deck or a page of class notes. Those pages already hold the vocabulary and facts a child needs to practice, so questions built from them match what is being taught.

  • Generate a new quiz from each lesson's worksheet or slides
  • Choose multiple choice, true/false or short answer questions
  • Read a clear explanation after every answer
  • Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus, or QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Example elementary quiz questions (math, science, grammar)
What is 7 × 8?56. Seven groups of eight make 56, and practicing the 7 and 8 facts together builds faster recall.
Which animal is a mammal: shark, dolphin or trout?Dolphin. It breathes air with lungs and feeds its young milk, while sharks and trout are fish.
True or false: plants use sunlight to make their own food.True. Photosynthesis turns light, water and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen.
What place value does the 4 have in 3.458?Tenths. It is the first digit after the decimal point, so it stands for 4/10.
What is a noun?A word that names a person, place, thing or idea. Spotting nouns helps kids find the subject of a sentence.

Questions from your own material

Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or a photo of a page, and get questions written from that content.

Multiple choice, true/false and short answer

Mix question types so a quiz checks recall, recognition and written answers in one set.

Explanations for every answer

Each question comes with a short explanation, so a child or parent can see why an answer is right.

How it works

Upload the material

Add a worksheet, unit slides or notes for the lesson you want to review.

Pick the question types

Choose multiple choice, true/false or short answer, or combine them in one quiz.

Practice and review

Work through the quiz in the browser, then check the explanations for any missed questions.

DeckOwl reads that material and writes multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions, each with an explanation. Because the quiz comes from your own files, you can make a new set for every lesson instead of searching for a generic printable.

Free accounts get 3 generations per month and browser study. Plus adds unlimited generations and PDF, DOCX and Anki export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export for learning management systems.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a quiz for kids have?

Ten to fifteen questions usually cover one lesson without tiring a young learner. Shorter quizzes of five to eight questions work well for younger children or quick daily review.

What subjects work best for kids' quizzes?

Topics with clear facts, such as multiplication, spelling, science vocabulary and reading comprehension, produce the most accurate questions. Upload the lesson material so the questions match what was taught.

Is DeckOwl a multiplayer game with a leaderboard?

No. DeckOwl creates study quizzes that run in the browser, so it does not host live multiplayer games. The quizzes are designed for practice and review.

Do I need to pay to export quizzes?

Yes. Free accounts study in the browser without exports, while Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML. Students get 40% off with a school email.
