Hinge question
A hinge question is one multiple-choice question before practice, where each wrong answer matches a common misconception, so the teacher sees at a glance who is ready.

How to run it
- Everyone answers at once, with fingers or on a whiteboard.
- Look at the spread of answers.
- Move on, or reteach the misconception the wrong answers show.
Why it works
