  2. Level 2: Recall

    Contextual Fill-in-the-Blank

    Students choose the word that completes a sentence, with options drawn from your list.

  3. Level 3: Apply & Transfer

    New Situation / Example

    Asks students to apply the word in an unfamiliar scenario, or to pick a synonym or antonym.

How the Quiz Maker Writes Distractors

The hardest part of making a test is writing wrong answers that aren’t obvious. Every quiz is drafted to four rules, so you know what to look for when you review it:

  1. Part-of-speech matchingIf the target is an adjective, every option is an adjective.
  2. Intra-list distractorsWrong choices come from the same week’s word list whenever possible.
  3. Consistent option lengthOptions stay a similar length, so the longest one doesn’t give itself away.
  4. Context-specific senseAdd your reading passage and each word is tested in the sense the passage uses: ‘bank’ as a river or as money.
