3 tips to maximize student engagement while playing with this new option

To make the learning experience more social and ensure good dynamics throughout your live kahoot, keep these recommendations in mind when questions and answers are displayed on students’ devices:

Pause between questions

Don’t rush through your kahoot. Pause after some of the questions to share additional info, ask what students think, and potentially start a discussion. Adding a poll question can help with that!

Show images on a shared screen

Encourage students to look up from their devices by having another look at images from questions on a shared screen (if you have one). Just click Show image after all answers have been submitted.

Check the scoreboard and celebrate the podium

A friendly competition makes a live kahoot more dynamic and fun. Spend a few seconds looking at the scoreboard and acknowledge the players who make it to the podium at the end of the kahoot.

What issues can arise while playing this game called Scattergories? 

It is important to remember Scattergories is a game created for enjoyment and fun, not arguing about what words are acceptable and which ones are not. In some cases, this issue can be resolved by appointing an independent referee. Just remember, friends can accept unacceptable words more easily instead of letting things get out of hand.

It is important to be graceful if one of your words is not accepted or when another player receives a point even though you thought their word was incorrect. Make sure you're still friends, before and after you play!

Anna goes to her friend Mara’s house, on a wintry evening only to find her dead. When the police learn about the incident, they question Anna about how she found out. Anna says that she knocked on the door and rang the bell repeatedly. Since the light was on in one of the rooms, Anna knew Mara must be home and decided to look through the window.
The windows were frozen, so she breathed on the iced glass, and that’s when she noticed Mara’s body on the floor. The police suspect Anna is the murderer. Why?

Anna could not have possibly gotten a clear view of the room from outside, as both sides of the glass would be frozen, so she could not have seen inside.
