By David · Updated 2026-08-13
MyClassScreen now ships 40+ widgets on the free classroom board. Teachers comparing TeacherScreen asked for wheel spinners, flashcards, Wordle, exit tickets, and brain-break games without student accounts or an LMS. Those tools are live locally on the board — open app.myclassscreen.org/board and add them from the toolbar.

What we did not copy
TeacherScreen’s AI tutor, wellbeing monitoring, assignment LMS, and 135-widget catalog are a different product. We stayed on the projected-board job: one screen the class watches, no student logins, save layouts free. If you need AI grading or live student-device quizzes, TeacherScreen may still be the better fit.
