If they try this tactic to delay completing an assignment, I do not respond in kind nor in any way to empower or encourage their behavior. I just point out that "No answer is the same as a wrong answer. You have 10 minutes to complete the quiz." Teens need to know who is in charge. They want to be, and many think they are. There's a reason 10th graders are called "sophomores" -- two words that mean "wise fools."

That's how you earn a 0 for participation in my class, and if you don't do the work, you fail that too... if they are athletes, they will care about failing their class.
It's a big game.

I'm sorry for that. I think it's great that you realize though that sending them out would be a reward.
