FAQ
Good to know
How many students can play?
One to four players per round. Small groups at a device work well, and it makes a strong whole-class projector activity with students directing the drags.
Do students need devices?
No. Projector-only works fine; devices with a join code or play link are there when you want everyone sorting at once.
Can AI create the groups for my topic?
Yes. Name the topic and grade and it builds the buckets and items in under a minute — living and non-living, noun or verb, primary and secondary sources.
Is it free?
Yes. Sorting is included on Boardee's free tier with every other game type.
Do students need accounts?
Never. Students join with a code and a name — no emails, no passwords. Teachers don't need an account to try it either.
