🏫 Classroom Games

Classroom Games on the Projector

Last updated

You need one browser on the classroom screen and one person allowed to tap. Pupils do not each open a live seat, there is no class chat inside the games, and nothing is stored in an account.

Five minutes is Flag or Higher or Lower. A writing lesson can use one Chain Story. Social deduction games that ask children to vote someone out are a poor warm-up.

Guess The Flag

The class, one device · 5–7 minutes

Easy, 30 seconds, you tap. Pupils call the country. Ten questions, then stop. Hard is homework energy, not a warm-up.

Higher Lower

The class, one device · 3–6 minutes

A single streak on the projector. Ask the room before you tap Higher or Lower. One miss ends it, which is a clean stop.

Chain Story Chaos

Up to 12 lines · 10–15 minutes

One sentence from each table, typed by you or by a pupil at the keyboard. Comedy or Random. Read it back as the writing sample.

Would You Rather?

The class · 5 minutes

Two or three cards as a speaking prompt. You read them first. Skip any card you do not want said aloud.

Leave these for another setting

Mafia

A public elimination vote is the wrong tool for a form group.

Impostor

Voting for a classmate as the impostor lands badly in a classroom even though the words are mild.

Guess the Google

The jokes are about adult embarrassment. Leave it out of school.

Pictionary

Only if you have time for turns and a stylus or mouse that works on the board. It is not a five-minute warm-up.

Projected warm-up

Easy Flag, ten questions, you on the clicker. If you have two spare minutes, one Higher or Lower streak and stop at the first miss. Chain Story only when the lesson is about sentences.
