The start of a new school year is the perfect time to set your classroom up for success. To help you hit the ground running, we’ve introduced new Kahoot! features designed to solve real classroom challenges—from navigating device-free environments to closing foundational math gaps.
Whether you are looking to save time on lesson prep, foster critical thinking, or motivate students to complete their homework, our latest updates give you the flexibility to engage every learner exactly where they are.
Bring the joy of Kahoot! to everyone, in every classroom
With our new Classic Unplugged and Team Tiles device-free experiences, you can run engaging, interactive lessons directly from a shared screen. Students call out answers, hold up cards, or work in teams to discuss solutions, giving you the perfect way to spark participation without needing individual phones, tablets, or laptops.
Close the math gap and improve student outcomes
Provide targeted practice and real-time data to rebuild foundational skills and improve test scores. Math Missions is an adaptive practice tool that provides self-driven learning to ensure no student gets stuck. By automatically adjusting to each learner’s pace, it builds the confidence required to master complex math topics from number sense to algebra.
Choose from 55+ languages to build vocabulary and speaking confidence
Kahoot! Language Learning makes picking up a new language easier by combining visual, bite-sized lessons with the engaging energy of Kahoot!. Now you have one simple tool for everything—whether you need a quick classroom warm-up, a lively multiplayer review, or easy-to-assign homework.
Spark deeper critical thinking in your classroom with open-ended answers!
Move beyond multiple-choice to capture deeper insights and foster class discussions. Teachers who teach students aged 16 and over can now safely access our open-ended question types. It’s a great way to gather real feedback, check understanding, and let every student share their thoughts.
Simplify lesson planning and save time with the Kahoot! Assistant
Supercharge your lesson planning with innovative features designed to simplify your workflow. Our powerful Kahoot! Assistant makes smarter lesson creation accessible to everyone.
