Gayle Badger is a Biology and Science teacher from Johnstone High School in Renfrewshire.
She has been using Microsoft Forms to support and assess learners understanding of the course content. Forms has allows her to create a variety of questions and provide instant feedback for them.

Here are two examples for different stages:
