Classcraft
“Classcraft’s mission is to make school more relevant and meaningful by creating playful and collaborative learning experiences that teach the whole child. We believe that the classroom can be reimagined using technology, games, and storytelling to create a learning environment that is culturally relevant to today's youth. Their future is likely to be very different from what we know today. It's our belief that fostering non-curricular cognitive skills like collaboration, empathy, leadership, communication, and self-expression will be a critical piece in helping prepare them for the changes they will face as adults.” ~Classcraft

Classroom Screen
Classroom Screen
Classroom Screen “is simply a web tool that is a one-stop-shop with useful widgets you can use while teaching or while students are working. Currently, there are twelve widgets you can use on ClassroomScreen. You can display multiple widgets at once.
Language – Choose to display text in a large range of languages
Background – Customise your background with one of the images or GIFs provided. Or, you can upload or record your own background.
Random Name/Dice – Enter the names of students and choose one at random. Or, roll one or more dice.
Sound Level – Monitor classroom noise levels using the microphone on your device.
QR Code – Enter a link and a QR code is automatically generated. Great when students have devices like iPads — they can come up to the board, scan the code and go straight to a site.
Drawing – There are two sizes available where you can free draw. The larger sized canvas can replace the background if you wish.
Text – A simple tool to write instructions, reminders, learning goals and so on.
Work Symbols – Display one of four options: work together, ask a neighbor, whisper, and silence.
Traffic Light – Display a red, amber, or green light to provide a visual reminder of when to move around, begin a task, pack up etc.
Timer – Count up or count down, record “laps”, and more. You can customise the tone that rings when the time is up.
Clock – Shows the time as a 12 or 24 hour clock. Also shows a calendar.” ~Kathleen Morris
