Which classroom game should I run?
CommunATI ships six classroom games. They split into two kinds, and the difference decides what you need in the room.
Games where students play on their own device
Everyone needs a phone, tablet or laptop. The display shows a join code; students go to /play, type the code, pick a nickname, and answer from their seat.
- Classroom Quiz — multiple-choice rounds from a question pack.
- Buzz-In — first to buzz gets to answer.
Games you run from the front of the room
No student devices needed. You set up teams, the display is the board, and teams answer out loud while you drive it from your laptop.
- Ramblin Roundup — survey answers, strikes and steals.
- Word Wheel Quest — spin, buy letters, solve the puzzle.
- Category Clash — a category grid with point values.
- Prize Wheel — a spin-to-win draw, not really a quiz.
What every game has in common
- You start it from Admin, signed in as an organizer.
- You pick or pair a display to be the board — see Connect a display.
- You keep the host controls on your own screen. Students never see them.
- Scores are per team or per nickname — never a child's real name.
