How can I use games in the classroom?

In this article, we'll cover how to use games in your classroom.

There are two games that help your students review important concepts and add variety to your lessons.

Note that Games differ from lessons in that you do not enroll students in games. To play the games you share your screen. The teacher controls the game while the students tell the teacher which answer to choose. 

Locate games in the drop-down menu below 'Teacher', at the top left of the Lesson Library
