Hi Shawn! Special Ed Teacher here. As the school year wraps up, I wanted to share my sincere gratitude for these resources--especially during the lockdown! I run a Zoom social skills group with some of my non-neurotypical students, and your creativity and resourcefulness have saved me a lot of time and stress trying to plan and keep them engaged. Have a great summer!
Hello friends! Just wanted to let you know that there is a mistake in this video. I’ve written about it in the description box of this video. Sorry for any confusion this my have caused. Thanks for understanding. Also, if you are looking for more Zoom game ideas, I've created a playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLr3JyJlapOYRR_bhWduft1d3vtYyR2lQz.html
Fun! I hope you found some fun games to play with your students. I have a new video just posted today with 15 new Zoom game ideas you might enjoy: ua-cam.com/video/7TTEXAcexjs/v-deo.html
Thank you very much! Fantastic ideas! It has been a real challenge to play games online, but you „saved” me :) I can't wait to play them with my students! Sending love from Romania :)
I had spent sooooo many hours looking for cool, real and insteresting activities for my classes on Zoom... and then I found your videos!!!! they gave me so many ideas!! THANK YOU!!
@@ShawnMHowell My students are 9-10 years old. We are having zoom classes these days, due to the pandemic, both online and pre-recorded.. So your tips are very useful!
That is so nice of you. I’m sure your sister is very thankful. I can certainly relate to how difficult it is to clean your house with your kids around. How old is your nephew? ❤️
Great stuff! From an objective standpoint your editing and graphics keep getting better and better! Keep on making great videos and I am sure you will keep growing!!
Thanks Todd! My MacBook kept over heating while editing this video. Lol. I just kept adding graphics, broll, sound effects and it was longer than usual. I had soooo much fun though. Husband was like-why are you filming yourself eating chips? 😂
Hi Shawn! Thank you so much for sharing! These games are very interesting. I just happened upon your videos while searching for games to play for my daughter's virtual birthday party. We sure can use most of these games (she's an adult) However, I'd like to call your attention to your example in the game Name a County. Canada - Africa - Antarctica, but Antarctica and Africa are both continents and not countries with Africa having 56 countries inside! This information is important especially for teachers who may want to play the game with their students. Thank you very much for sharing your passion and connecting and bringing joy to families during this difficult period.
You are correct about the difference between a country and a continent. Thank you for pointing it out. Happy birthday to your daughter! You might be interested in this game here for her party: ua-cam.com/video/-cq_42kdR2o/v-deo.html
Thanks so much. 😊 this video I’m using iMovie to edit and keynote to create many of the animations. My newest 2 videos I’m using Final Cut Pro. I’m trying to learn Final Cut Pro.
Great question! You can’t add an image to the whiteboard but you can screen share an image and then annotate on that image. Watch my tutorial here: ua-cam.com/video/o1QMBE0YaL0/v-deo.html
Cool! I appreciate you leaving comments on my videos as you watch them. I love hearing from my viewers. Means so much to me that they bring you joy and new ideas. 🤗 virtual hugs
This video was created back in 2020. Zoom has a new feature called “whiteboard” that you can color in. If you update the Zoom app on your desktop or laptop, the whiteboard feature appears at the bottom of the window when you open up a meeting. I don’t have an updated tutorial of this feature at this time.
Thank you for these! For game #20 I think you mean you'd send the person who can't hear the theme to a breakout room by themselves (instead of muting them...when they'd still hear the theme!)
Yes! Lol I think I was imagining players muting their sound on their end rather than they themselves being muted. Lol. I said that completely wrong. Break out rooms would also work. Great idea. ❤️
That castle is in southern Germany. It’s called Neuschwanstein and it’s the castle that the Disney castle is based on. I know this bc my brother lives nearby in Munich about an hour north of there!
hi, Shawn.. nice meeting you in virtual. Your ideas are amazing and would probably apply /use it. can you send me link on the virtual background? thank you and stay safe.

Good and simple ideas. #20 wouldn’t work, though, as the person who’s is muted can still hear you and would easily guess the the theme.
Teaching Leadership trying to find games to play with the student body for a lunchtime activity. These sound pretty easy to play. Thanks

For COLORING SHEETS, that color feature, is it available on Zoom or it's a feature exclusive on Macbook? I can't find it on Zoom.
This video was created back in 2020. Zoom has a new feature called “whiteboard” that you can color in. If you update the Zoom app on your desktop or laptop, the whiteboard feature appears at the bottom of the window when you open up a meeting.

Awesome as always Shawn. Thank you. The picture story is one of my favorites for the class.
Hey 👋 Lorraine! The picture Story game is fun especially depending on the pictures you choose for the kids. 😊
