Kahoot!

I've used Kahoot! before but not in my classroom. It would be such a fun and interactive way to review, poll your students, practice facts, lead a discussion, or give any informal assessment. It would be good for regular classrooms and enrichments. I will use it in computer!

Each student will need an iPad or computer to participate. You will need to create a free account. Very quick. It doesn't ask you 1,000 questions. Go to https://getkahoot.com 


This is what your teacher account will look like when you create it. Under "Create new Kahoot!" you have the options of quiz, discussion, or survey. 


The students don't need a login. All they need is a a phone, iPad, or computer. When you create your quiz or whatever you create, it will give you a pin. The students will go to https://kahoot.it  type in your pin, type in their name, and it will show a list of all of the students that are "in." No email address or profiles necessary.


You can kick students out by clicking on their names if they put something inappropriate in place of their name...that's a plus.

Try it out and let me know what you think!
