As a teacher we must be able to create fun and creative learning. One of the things that can be done is by using technology. We can utilize the sophistication of technology as a medium in delivering material in learning. One of them is making online practice questions using quizizz https://quizizz.com/login. How to use it is quite easy, you only need to create an account and you can already create practice questions. I think making practice questions fun with quizizz can help increase the motivation and enthusiasm of elementary school students. So we as teachers don't get tired of always creating interesting things. Thank you!

LearnEnglish Kids has lots of free online games, songs, stories and activities for children to have fun and learn English too.

As a teacher of 5-6 year old ESL learners in a bilingual school, I find this website really useful for activities, songs, games etc for teaching English in a fun way. It is very interractive and child friendsly. Children can explore activities alone or it can be used as part of a teaching session. They can also leave their own comments about activities they liked. I think someone has already mentioned it below but I love it so much I had to post again so everyone can see. Highly recommended for any teachers of young learners, whether these kids are second language learners or not.

good site

I like using kahoot and flipgrid . They are great tools for making learning fun

During the covid pandemic, when the classroom has been changed to virtual classrooms I have been using this site for creating quizzes and games in the class. This can be used to create content-based as well as fun games in the classroom.

Socrative lets teachers engage and assess their students with educational activities on tablets, laptops and smartphones. Through the use of real time questioning, instant result aggregation and visualization, teachers can gauge the whole class' current level of understanding. Socrative saves teachers time so the class can further collaborate, discuss, extend and grow as a community of learners.

Socrative is a fun way to engage students with either polls or quizzes. I use it for vocabulary instruction primarily but if they have a device it makes it easier for them to all participate.

A few years old now, but still a great resource. Lots of videos from primary (and secondary) pupils carrying out innovative, interesting and fun science experiments. A great source of ideas and inspiration for your next science lesson.

I post this because it is evidence of the type of learning which only ICTs make possible. While it is fascinating in itself, and Professor David Christian believes we should teach far more complicated science to young children, I have posted it as something to aim for. Won't it be fun when teachers and schools can create their own student/cohort specific learning sites like these.

Online Class Quiz/Game. Straightforward, simple, and fun.

My y1 kids love it, we make quizzes as a class and challenge the other y1 classes.

Our kids love it as well!!

An oldie, but a goodie! Scratch is a free tool designed to support the development of coding skills. Available in 40+ languages and aimed at students aged 8 and up. Students can program their own interactive stories, games, and animations - and share their creations with others in the online community.

Actually there is also a new curriculum for Scratch with worksheets: http://scratched.gse.harvard.edu/guide/download.html It has also been translated into several languages. This is a very helpful tool if you want to start introducing programming to a class. I have been using it now twice, and I am happy with the outcome. In particular the worksheets are so helpful and give you more time to support the individual child.

I have use code.org as an introduction before using scratch. It allows the children participate it in games involving angry birds, plants vs zombies, flappy birds and the disney frozen characters.
