Turning a school lesson plan into a live [virtual](https://www.squadlocker.com/squad-blog/5-top-virtual-teaching-tips) game show can be an effective learning tool. It’s also a great strategy for boosting teacher and parent engagement. In a recent episode of the Multipurpose Room podcast, “[Gamifying Your 2021 Curriculum](https://themultipurposeroom.school/e/gamifying-your-2021-curriculum/),” host Debora Jones, co-founder and advisor of [K-12 Clothing](https://www.k12clothing.com/), partner of [SquadLocker](https://www.squadlocker.com/), talks with [Michael Daniels](https://www.youtube.com/c/MichaelDaniels), virtual game show creator and host. He offers tips on how to help engage students, teachers, and parents using customized online game shows. Michael has been creating virtual games shows to bring people together since 2015.   ## **Here are some ideas to gamify your school community** Virtual game show host Michael has created all kinds of games, from Hollywood Circles and Friendly Feud, to Pictionary-like and Scattergories-like games. The sky’s the limit when creating a virtual game show that features questions specific for your school community. Here’s where games can help: - 1. Boost team building and school spirit across a school community - 2. Brainstorm a particular topic or research project for a classroom - 3. Learn a specific subject across an entire grade - 4. Lift morale among teachers - 5. Engage parents to feel more part of the community   ## **Create a game for your school community** Live virtual games create fun banter back and forth, spark fun and involvement, and can bring students, teachers, and parents together – something we all need during a pandemic! Make sure you have a goal before you begin. What do you want to accomplish with your game? What do you want students to learn? And then have fun – it’s a game!
