The Genially Hidden Picture Game template is an engaging, interactive tool designed to captivate students' curiosity by challenging them to uncover a concealed image through a series of questions. A portion of the hidden picture reveals itself as students answer questions correctly, providing immediate feedback and motivation to continue. This gamified approach not only reinforces subject matter comprehension but also adds an element of fun to the learning process. Fully customizable, the content can be tailored by educators to align with various subjects and grade levels, making it a versatile addition to any classroom setting. The template supports the integration of multimedia elements such as audio, video, and animations, enhancing the overall interactive experience. Additionally, it offers flexible sharing options, including online presentation, embedding, and downloading in formats like PDF and MP4.

tag(s): game based learning (286), gamification (95), multimedia (56)

In the Classroom

After reading a story or article, have students answer comprehension questions using the game. Each correct response uncovers part of an image related to the text's theme or setting. Have students create their own versions of the game as a final project. They write questions based on their research or learning, choose an image to hide, and then share their games with classmates for peer learning. Create a game using unit questions (e.g., life cycles, weather, or historical events). As students answer correctly, the picture underneath reveals something connected to the topic (like a habitat, invention, or landmark).

Students can complete the story by dragging in accurate terms, helping reinforce comprehension and sequencing. Have students write their own short texts with blanks and correct word options. They can then challenge classmates to complete them.

Successfully gathering all gems empowers them to defeat a dragon, providing a compelling narrative that motivates participation. Fully customizable, the template enables educators to tailor content to various subjects and grade levels, integrating multimedia elements such as audio, video, and animations.

Customize the escape room puzzles with questions from your current unit (math problems, vocabulary definitions, science facts, etc.). Students must correctly solve each one to earn a gem and move closer to defeating the dragon. As students progress through the dungeon, have them keep a digital journal using Book Creator, reviewed here or a paper journal reflecting on their team's strategies, what worked, and how they solved each puzzle.

Genially's escape room templates are designed to be adaptable for a wide range of grade levels. The platform offers a variety of themes and levels of complexity, allowing educators to tailor the content to their students' ages and learning objectives. For example, simpler games like Candyland or Children's Game templates are well-suited for younger students, while more intricate scenarios, such as the Artificial Intelligence Escape Room or Time Machine Escape, are ideal for older students seeking a challenge. Educators can customize these templates to align with their curriculum, making them versatile tools for engaging students across different educational stages.

In the Classroom

Customize a Genially escape room (like Education Escape Room or Mystery Breakout) with questions and puzzles that review key concepts from your current unit--perfect as a fun pre-test or review session. Divide students into small groups and assign them different puzzles or tasks within the escape game. This activity encourages teamwork, communication, and shared problem-solving as they work toward a common goal. Challenge students to create their digital escape rooms using Genially's templates. They must design puzzles, write clues, and embed subject content, transforming them from game players into game designers. Use a breakout template to reinforce vocabulary. Each "lock" can be opened only by correctly defining or using academic terms in context, making it ideal for ELA, science, or history.

Create flipbooks from your documents or artificial intelligence, or start from scratch with FlipHTML5. Free plans offer five daily uploads, six pre-designed layouts, and mobile-friendly options. Choose from several language options to include in the book's contents. Choose from several AI generators for creating storybooks, magazines, flashcards, and more. Utilizing the AI generator to create a book requires several minutes, so it's important to plan for this option ahead of time.

tag(s): artificial intelligence (256), digital storytelling (158)

In the Classroom

Upload PDF versions of students' writing to create a digital classbook. Use one of the many tools available from TinyWow reviewed here to convert images and documents into PDF files to use with FlipHTML5. Make a flipbook of a presentation as an engaging alternative to a web page or PowerPoint. Share classroom information such as rules and expectations in an easy-to-read format. Use this resource as a great way to bring digital storytelling upfront in your classroom. Make photosynthesis a story instead of bits of equations and information. Portray a historical period or create books of different political or societal opinions. Create a flipbook with the viewpoints and personalities of characters in a story. Practice a different language by creating a themed flipbook. Lower grades can combine writing into a class flipbook to be shared online or read aloud. Any written assignment can easily be re-visioned as a flipbook! Make your literary magazine a flipbook or build new poetry collections during poetry month. Share all your flipbooks on individual laptops, the interactive whiteboard, or the projector. Create simple flipbooks of Dolch words for beginning readers.

AudioPen helps to turn your spoken thoughts into organized ideas. The concept behind AudioPen is simple: turn on the microphone and start talking without organizing your thoughts or worrying about coherence. After completing a recording, AudioPen processes it and produces a text note with information organized into paragraphs, along with a transcript of your recording. Visit the settings option before starting a recording and adjust the input and output language settings if desired. When finished, copy the text to your clipboard to add to an email or document, or download the audio file to your device. Free accounts offer up to three minutes of recording time per project, with no limit on the number of recordings you can create. Registration isn't required; however, creating an account allows users to save and access a history of recordings.

tag(s): artificial intelligence (256), DAT device agnostic tool (125), multilingual (74), noregistration (81), text to speech (22)

In the Classroom

Use AudioPen in several different classroom situations. Share this tool with students to use as an assistant with writing projects. Have students create recordings of what they want to include in their project without having to write or take notes, then use the text to organize their project. AudioPen is also a helpful tool for multilingual students. Adjust the settings to record their thoughts in their native language, then produce an organized set of ideas in English without transcribing from one language to another. Use AudioPen to assist with professional tasks such as organizing teaching units, writing grant proposals, or planning ideas to include with newsletters.

Meshy AI offers a free, easy-to-use platform that empowers educators and students to create 3D models swiftly and efficiently. Members can generate detailed 3D models in less than three minutes by simply inputting text descriptions or uploading images. The free plan provides 200 credits monthly, allowing for the creation of models without needing a credit card. These models can be exported in various formats, including Wavefront Object (OBJ), Filmbox (FBX), and Stereolithography (STL), making them suitable for integration into educational projects, 3D printing, or virtual reality applications. Meshy AI's intuitive interface and rapid processing make it an excellent tool for enhancing creativity and learning in the classroom.

tag(s): artificial intelligence (256), design (77)

In the Classroom

Have students choose a vocabulary word and use Meshy to create a 3D model that represents it. For example, for the word "volcano," they can generate a 3D model of a volcano from a text prompt. Then, they can present their model and explain how it connects to the word's meaning. After reading a story, have students describe a character in detail and use Meshy to turn that description into a 3D model. In social studies or ELA, students can research an artifact from a historical period (ex., a medieval crown or ancient vase) and then generate a 3D model from a text or image prompt. Students can brainstorm and design an invention, describing it in detail via text. They then can use Meshy to model their invention and present it in a "Shark Tank"-style pitch, explaining how it works and its usefulness.

In the Classroom

Save this lesson generator for many different classroom uses. Create lessons to build social-emotional learning skills that address the needs of your students or incorporate SEL thinking processes into lessons that require students to understand different perspectives, such as the civil rights movement or the environmental impacts of pollution. Take time to develop the prompt for the final box to include specific information for the type of lesson to create, teaching frameworks to include, technology to incorporate, and consideration of thinking routines. For example, use a prompt such as "the civil rights movement of the 1960s, include five station rotation activities; one should be technology-based" to generate a SEL lesson. Consider adding Thinking Routines, reviewed here that encourages students to use perspective to consider others' thoughts, experiences, and feelings.

In the Classroom

Assign a book on Glose and have students highlight key passages, add comments, and respond to each other's thoughts. This encourages interactive discussions while developing comprehension skills. Students can create a personal glossary by highlighting unfamiliar words in Glose and using the built-in dictionary. They can share their words with peers and create the glossary using Book Creator, reviewed here. Assign different themes, such as friendship, perseverance, or kindness, and have students annotate sections of the text that align with these themes. This helps with critical thinking and thematic analysis. Students can also take on the role of a character in a book they're reading and use Glose's annotation tool to write journal entries from the character's point of view.

In the Classroom

Use the Poem Generator to introduce students to different forms of poems through exploration and use of the generator's features. Challenge students to identify the features that indicate various types of poems. Create a class Padlet, reviewed here, with columns for each type of poem, and ask students to share their creations in the appropriate column. After students have had time to experiment with the Poem Generator, challenge them to create poems without using this tool. Extend learning by adding a reading of their final project to Adobe Podcast, reviewed here. Ask students to create podcasts that include their reading of the poem and a short discussion about the features that identify the poem as belonging to a specific genre.
