Science practice questions

In Dragon Academy, Science is taught by Ignis. Every question a kid answers correctly trains Ignis to grow and evolve. Here are real questions from the game — tap an answer to check it.

On this page kids practice real science: astronomy (planets, constellations, and why we have seasons), biology (insects, food chains, the heart, and how plants make food), earth science (volcanoes, clouds, rocks, and earthquakes), plus physics and energy — magnets, light, sound, simple machines, electric circuits, and renewable power. Every question comes with a short explanation and a fun fact worth repeating at dinner.

The four difficulty tiers climb steadily. Easy questions — which planet is closest to the Sun? — suit 7- and 8-year-olds with no prior knowledge. Medium introduces atoms, Newton's first law, and the first step of the scientific method for ages 9–10; hard covers mitosis, natural selection, and the convection currents that move tectonic plates; expert reaches seafloor spreading, stellar parallax, nitrogen-fixing bacteria, and terminal velocity — a genuine stretch for 12- and 13-year-olds and for many adults, too.

In Dragon Academy, every correct answer trains Ignis, the game's science dragon, who grows and evolves as your child's knowledge does. The five sample questions on this page are free to try — tap an answer to check it and read the explanation behind it.
