How to make Year 1 quizzes from your own lessons

Quizizz-style Year 1 quizzes are easiest to build from the material you already teach. Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain-text notes or a photo of a page, and DeckOwl writes multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions with an explanation for each answer.

  • Keep Year 1 questions short and match the vocabulary used in class.
  • Mix multiple choice, true/false and short-answer questions in one set.
  • Use the explanations under each answer for teacher review or pupil feedback.
  • Study in the browser on the free plan; PDF and DOCX export come with Plus.
Example Year 1 maths quiz questions
Which number is 10 more than 27?37. Adding 10 changes only the tens digit, so 2 tens become 3 tens.
True or false: a triangle has four sides.False. A triangle has three sides, and a quadrilateral is the shape with four.
What is 8 + 5?13. Counting on from 8 by five gives 9, 10, 11, 12, 13.
Which coin is worth the most: 2p, 5p or 10p?10p, because 10 is the largest value of the three coins.
Write the number that comes after 49.50. Counting on by one from 49 reaches the next multiple of ten.

Built from what you taught

Questions come from your own slides, notes or worksheets, so they use the words and examples your class has already seen.

Three question types

Mix multiple choice, true/false and short-answer questions in one set to check recall and understanding.

Explanations included

Each answer comes with a short explanation you can use for teacher review or pupil feedback.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain-text notes or a photo of a page from your Year 1 lesson.

Choose the question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false, short answer or a mix, then generate the quiz.

Review and use

Check the questions against your lesson before pupils see them, then study in the browser or export on a paid plan.

If you were hoping for a ready-made bank of Year 1 quizzes, this works differently: the questions come from your own lessons, so they match the vocabulary and examples your class has seen. Short, single-idea questions suit children this age, so keep the reading load light and read questions aloud where needed.

Exports to PDF and DOCX are part of the Plus plan, so you can print a paper version for pupils who need one.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a Year 1 quiz have?

A short quiz works best for this age, since children usually concentrate for brief spells. Focus on one idea per question and keep the set small enough to finish comfortably in one sitting.

How do I write Year 1 quiz questions that test understanding rather than memory?

Ask pupils to apply a fact to a new picture or example, such as counting a different set of objects to find the total. Use true/false statements that reflect common misconceptions, then follow up with a short-answer question to hear the reasoning.

Is there a free way to try DeckOwl?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and lets you study in the browser, though exports are a paid feature.

Can I export Year 1 quizzes to Moodle or QTI?

Yes, on the Pro plan, which includes QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export. PDF and DOCX export are included with Plus, which costs $39/year or $7.99/month.
