How to Set Up Your Classroom for Movement-Based Learning

Setting up a classroom for movement-based learning doesn’t require a complete room makeover. Once your device is ready, focus on four essentials: a visible screen, a clear camera view, enough space for the activity and a simple routine for children taking turns. Test the camera, sound and screen before the lesson, mark a clear starting spot and keep cables and obstacles out of the movement area. With a simple routine in place, teachers can focus less on setup and more on helping children learn.

How to Set Up Your Classroom for Movement-Based Learning

Once your device compatibility is confirmed, classroom preparation comes down to four things: a visible screen, a clear camera view, enough room for the activity and a simple route for children taking turns.

Eduzo can be used in a regular classroom where these conditions can be met. The whole room does not need to become a play area.

Choose the play spot

Select a space facing the display. Check the movements required by the activity before deciding how much room to leave around the child.

Sideways steps need clear space on either side. Activities involving raised arms or jumps need appropriate clearance too. Remove bags and loose objects, and secure cables outside the route children will use.

Check the camera view

Position the camera on a stable surface facing the play spot. Use the game's camera guidance to confirm that the parts of the body required for the activity are visible.

Test with children of different heights where practical. A position that works for an adult demonstration may need adjustment for younger learners.

Avoid a bright window directly behind the player. The child should be clearly visible, with furniture and other people kept out of the tracking area as needed.

Make the starting position obvious

After testing the view, mark a starting spot with floor tape. Show children how to reach it and return to their seats without crossing cables or crowding the camera.

Keep the next player ready nearby only where there is enough space and it does not interfere with the current turn.

Check sound and screen visibility

Play the instructions at the volume you plan to use. Check that children can hear them and that the seated class can see the question.

Open the selected activity before the lesson begins. A brief test is usually more useful than discovering a blocked camera or muted speaker during the first turn.

Teach the routine once

Demonstrate where to stand, how to respond and when to move back. Explain whether classmates may discuss answers or should think silently during individual assessment.

Once children know the routine, the teacher can focus on the activity and the support children need.

Keep learning. Keep moving.

Teaching Number Sense Through Movement: A Classroom Activity Guide

Number sense is about more than recognising numbers. Children need opportunities to connect numbers with quantities, compare groups and explore different ways to make a total. Simple movement activities—such as showing a number with fingers, splitting counters into groups or finding a hidden quantity—can make these ideas more interactive. With Eduzo, teachers can extend these activities through games and visual tasks, then use recorded responses to guide the next stage of practice.

How to Create and Assign Questions by Bloom's Level With Eduzo

Custom questions can help teachers align Eduzo activities more closely with their lessons and learning goals. Bloom’s Taxonomy provides a useful framework for deciding whether a question asks children to recall, apply or reason, while the response format should match the thinking you want to assess. By creating, previewing and assigning focused questions, teachers can build reusable activities and use the resulting reports to plan meaningful follow-up practice.

A Teacher's Checklist for the First Week With Eduzo

The first week with Eduzo is about building a comfortable, repeatable routine. Start with familiar content, test the activity and teach children how to take turns and respond. Once the class is comfortable, try automatic roll call, manual selection or team play, then review the learning report to identify what needs attention next. By the end of the week, teachers can choose a simple routine that fits naturally into their timetable and build from there.
