![]() Dear Teacher, Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication while teaching your students remotely. Most likely you have had to learn to use some type of new communication platform to stay connected with your students. If you're like me, maybe you have become a ZOOMER! Here are some FUN, FREE, VIRTUAL Games to keep students engaged while honing your ZOOMING skills! Happy Teaching! 1. Charades![]() Charades is a games that translates easily to Zoom. You can play as a whole class activity or split the class into teams. The student, or teacher, who's acting out the charade can use the Zoom "spotlight" feature. The class/team has one minute (or whatever time limit you want to use) to figure out the charade.
You can use this free Charades Idea Generator to choose your words and phrases or come up with them on your own. 2. Name, Place, Animal, ThingThis is one of my Zoom favorites and great fun for older kiddos. To play, pick a letter. Each student has to list a famous person's name, a place, an animal, and a thing that begins with that letter. The first person to type them into the Zoom Chat wins! 3. Bingo!
4. Taboo (Fantabulous)
5. tRIVIA
6. ScattergoriesScattergories is a fun game to play while Zooming with your students. To play, use this Free Game Generator and send each person a link to the game. The rules are simple: there is one letter and five categories (things like "school supplies," "book title," and "boy's name"). You have one minute to come up with a word that fits in each category and starts with the chosen letter. 7. Boggle
8. Scavenger Hunt
Happy ZOOMING Teachers!

Awesome, I'm so glad. I used some of the games for my daughter's birthday party recently and they were a hit!
