Throughout our online lessons we have been using a fantastic website called Blooket. This is linked closely to Quizlet that we use regularly to learn and practise our online vocabulary. Blooket is an online game where you can choose a subject to take a quiz on. You can either play solo or against friends. There are different games such as Café, Gold Chest, Factory, Battle Royale, Racing, Crazy Kingdom, Tower of Doom and Classic. If you want to play, you search Blooket to play and follow the teacher’s instructions! Our students have particularly enjoyed playing the Gold Chest games and stealing gold from their teachers!
Here, our students tell us what they have particularly enjoyed playing on Blooket.
“We have been using Blooket in our online language lessons and I have really enjoyed it because we get to play fun games and at the same time, remember our vocabulary. The whole class socialises and we play against each other. It’s always funny when people steal off the teacher and Frau Gill makes it even more fun. I would like to keep using Blooket.” Hanya A, Year 8
“We have been using Blooket in our online language lessons and I have really enjoyed it because the games are really fun, while helping us remember German words and phrases. The activities are helpful as you have to remember the phrases to win, which everyone wants to do.” Grace R, Year 10
“We have been using Blooket in our online lessons and I have very much enjoyed doing it because you are able to interact with everyone in the lesson and it also helps to improve your German.” Freya A, Year 10
“We have been using Blooket in our online language lessons and I have really enjoyed using this website because it’s an easy way to learn key German vocabulary and it makes the subject more active, fun and a great way to feel like you’re back working with your class mates. You don’t realise how much you’re actually learning because it has been made in such a good way that it just feels like you are playing a game. It has really helped me and I love using Blooket in my lessons!” Lois R, Year 10
“We have been using Blooket in our online language lessons and I have really enjoyed it because it helps you learn and remember your vocabulary. It is a game where if you get a multiple-choice question, e.g. ‘What does Horrorfilme mean?’ If you get it right, you pick a chest and you could get gold or you could steal someone else’s gold or even lose your own. I personally like using it for the competition and seeing if I can win, which motivates me to learn my vocabulary for different topics.” Felicity A, Year 10
“We have been using Blooket in our online language lessons and I have really enjoyed it and it is also a fun way to remember any words that we have learnt in a lesson.” Khitam A, Year 8
“We have been using Blooket in our online lessons recently in German and I find it very exciting and amusing because there are lots of entertaining games to learn a language.” Lojaina A, Year 8
