Hey guys! If you could help me with something, I would be super grateful! So, I know that this is like the book part of dogo, but how do you take quizzes on the news part?
kruzingwithk9s kruzingwithk9s

GUYS!!! U CAN MAKE NEWS QUIZZES!!! go to the news u want to make a quiz on, tap on the gear and tap new quiz

Don't you need the Editor to approve though?
chlooe chlooe

Oh, I don't think that you can take quizzes on new articles. You can only take quizzes on the books that DOGO has set for you.

I don't think there are quizzes for the news articles, but it would be cool if there were!
auntieb auntieb

There are! - I haven't done any but as a quizmaker I believe there is the option if you ask the Editor first.

I was sure I saw someone on my stream that said something like someone took a quiz on an article...

Hi! You were following me before, but I was looking at the following thing and saw remove and I went "What's this do?" And accidentally removed you! Sorry!

Ah, so you did....I refollowed you! Thanks for the update!

I'm not sure if any of y'all have read the Divergent series, but I would definitely recommend it for grades 8th and and up. However, if you decide to watch the movies, skip the last one! I honestly don't even think the director read the book! Or the back of the book. Or watched any of the previous movies! I don't think there was a single common scene. A VERY prominent character was supposed to die, and didn't!!!
bookstory14 bookstory14

Sorry, haven't read it--yet! It's on my to-read list, and coming closer. I'm the minimum grade, I guess, so I'll read it soon! I'll keep your advice in mind!
anajas1 anajas1

I hate it when that happens!
olliebob olliebob

I know, right? Like why even make the movie?
crowley crowley

WAIT WHAT? they didn't... didn't make them die? That's just... abominable.
olliebob olliebob

I was actually kind of relieved because I was SO sad when they died in the book!
kruzingwithk9s kruzingwithk9s

i prefer when they dont die! but then again i never read the books, and its for 8th grade and up. so not reading them anytime soon
