Traditional end-of-year news quiz for the first lesson of the new year
To tell the truth, I almost broke the tradition this year when I decided not to publish my annual quiz. The year has been so depressing I simply couldn't think of the news items that wouldn't be about terror and murder. But, at the insistence of friends and colleagues, here's this year's edition of the lexically enriched news quiz, which I've tried to keep light on politics.
This time, the quiz comes only in one version: upper-intermediate/advanced (B2 +). However, I've also created a Kahoot quiz with slightly simplified questions, which might be suitable for lower levels.

The detailed 8-page teachers notes (scroll down) provide ideas on how to use the quiz with your students and how to explore the language from the quiz. As usual, activities for reviewing the lexis from the quiz will be posted in a few days. Check back in the New Year.
