Classroom management

Classroom tools for everyday routines

A short classroom routine should not require rebuilding a form every week. Choose a tool for one job: setting speaking order, organising a schedule or preparing labels. Try it with sample details before entering a real class list.

Choose a tool by task

Pick a speaker or a turn

Use the classroom roulette for participation order. Numbers or group symbols work when names are unnecessary. Explain whether a student can be picked again before starting.

Random student picker →

Arrange class groups

Open the class assignment tool when you need to divide a list. Review the groups yourself and avoid entering sensitive student characteristics. Optional AI features can have separate requirements.

Build a weekly timetable

Prepare the subjects and time periods first, then arrange the table. Keep labels short enough to read on your classroom display. Check the available save or print options in the tool.

Timetable maker →

Prepare name tags

Choose a format that suits the activity, such as a desk label or wearable tag. Check spelling and the first sample before preparing the whole class. Do not publish a class list accidentally.

Name tag maker →

Prepare certificates

Review the recipient, award wording, date and issuer. Use a test name for the first sample. A certificate should describe the student’s effort or achievement clearly.

Certificate maker →

Plan a monthly calendar

Use short event labels for project deadlines, presentations or reading days. Keep a separate staff-only record for details students do not need to see.

Prepare without copying student details everywhere

  1. Decide which information the activity actually needs. Prefer numbers when names add no value.
  2. Try the tool with a small sample and inspect the result.
  3. Check language, access and storage notices before adding a full list.
  4. Before sharing your screen, close other documents and hide notifications.
  5. Save completed work only in an appropriate school location and review it before external sharing.

Before you use the tools

Can I use numbers instead of names?

For a picker or group-order activity, use numbers or symbols if the input format accepts them. A name tag or certificate may need a name; do not collect extra details.

Does every feature work without an account?

Access varies by tool and feature. In particular, optional AI processing may have requirements beyond a basic classroom operation. Check the notice shown by the tool.
