quizzes
Brief classroom assessments
Quizzes is the plural of quiz, a short test of knowledge: Pop quizzes kept students on their toes.
It also serves as the third-person singular verb—to quiz is to question or test someone: She quizzes her kids on vocabulary every night.
The word suggests something brief and informal rather than a comprehensive exam.
