There are fun games and activities you can do besides putting a funny background on in Zoom to have a laugh or two to.
What activities can you do on zoom. These games may include Bingo Charades and Werewolf. This video takes you through some specific ideas about using Zoom to teach online. Brooklyns beloved Books Are Magic store is hosting a ton of events via Zoom with authors like Alexander Chee Megan Abbot and Lauren Graham among others.
There is nothing like this ye olde Bingo. If you really want your students to focus on everyone in the classroom play a game of I Spy backgrounds. The purpose of these games is to make the meeting more fun and engaging.
When autocomplete results are available use up and down arrows to review and enter to select. But it turns out you can do a lot more than chat on camera. Have all the kids and adults send in a baby picture.
You can even record everyones audio in separate files for easy editing later. And get out some pens markers or really anything you can find around your house to be creative with. Have all the children sign-on to whichever program you are using at the same time.
Select a panel of judges and then Zoom with others and let everyone give you a taste of their talent. During the Zoom they will share their screen and show the pictures one by one as everyone uses the Zoom Chat feature to guess whos picture it is on the screen. Charades is a basic game that translates easily to Zoom.
If you FaceTime as I have done while playing it can feel very close to being in the same room. Playing a game is obviously a super fun activity. I often use Zoom.
