Printable session plan · Schools and Learning Environments
A practical, time-bounded plan for school fundraiser teams in a school carnival. Use it to rehearse one clear activity without improvising the room, camera, or participation rules.
The practical question is how to run a repeatable activity booth with visible scores when volunteers need a format they can learn quickly and operate in shifts.
This is a run-of-show companion to the broader School Carnival Digital Games use-case guide. Its purpose is narrower: help the operator or host run one thoughtful session with a defined start, a clear option to pause, and a prepared fallback.
Motion control gives the screen a different role: instead of asking students to watch, it responds to their movement. The teacher can choose a contained format and rotate roles around one device.
01
Mark and test the operating footprint. Use a supervised camera mark clear of desks, doorways, and the next teaching zone. For this exact school carnival, protect lesson transitions, student rotation, supervision, and accessible exits; LaserEyes is first because its profile uses seated or standing space with low movement.
02
Rehearse the exact opening moment. In the school carnival, the school activity lead starts with LaserEyes because volunteers need a format they can learn quickly and operate in shifts. The host demonstrates head-position aiming, runs one bounded turn, and hands the station to the next participant so the program can run a repeatable activity booth with visible scores.
03
Assign and rehearse the operator sequence. For the school carnival, the school activity lead checks the camera mark, explains LaserEyes's head-position aiming, invites one voluntary turn, resets the result, and offers WhackAMole only while the flow remains clear enough to run a repeatable activity booth with visible scores.
04
Brief privacy and contingency choices before opening. Follow school safeguarding and camera policy; do not retain student names or images. Before the first LaserEyes turn in the school carnival, state that choice and keep opt-out participation available for school fundraiser teams. At the school carnival, if volunteers need a format they can learn quickly and operate in shifts, return the room to its lesson layout and use a teacher-led no-camera prompt; otherwise move from LaserEyes to WhackAMole without expanding the marked footprint.
Decision standard: The format can run a repeatable activity booth with visible scores without interfering with the main purpose of a school carnival.
The first choice for a school carnival should leave room for conversation, late arrivals, and a clean handoff. Use these games as a short test against volunteers need a format they can learn quickly and operate in shifts
head-position aiming
Laser Eyes is included for School Carnival Digital Games because it uses head-position aiming in seated or standing space with low movement.
Play fit: quiet, contained participation when floor travel is unsuitable For school carnival digital games, plan for seated or standing space with low movement.
arm reaches and whole-body leaning
Whack A Mole is included for School Carnival Digital Games because it uses arm reaches and whole-body leaning in compact-to-medium standing space with moderate movement.
Play fit: first-time players who benefit from a familiar reach-to-hit rule For school carnival digital games, plan for compact-to-medium standing space with moderate movement.
whole-body movement toward visual targets
Reaction is included for School Carnival Digital Games because it uses whole-body movement toward visual targets in medium clear space with moderate movement.
Play fit: fast-reset score challenges and hosted rotations For school carnival digital games, plan for medium clear space with moderate movement.
Later choices: AwkwardPoseStudio. For School fundraiser teams in the school carnival, offer LaserEyes first to anyone choosing a lower-movement or seated role: its head-position aiming uses seated or standing space with low movement. Also provide spectator, scorekeeper, and no-camera roles.
Use a supervised camera mark clear of desks, doorways, and the next teaching zone. For this exact school carnival, protect lesson transitions, student rotation, supervision, and accessible exits; LaserEyes is first because its profile uses seated or standing space with low movement. Test camera framing and backlight from that exact zone before the first LaserEyes turn.

Before the first LaserEyes turn in the school carnival, state that choice and keep opt-out participation available for school fundraiser teams. Everyone has the right to opt out, choose an observer role, or stop the activity without having to explain or justify that choice.

Use the plan for school fundraiser teams to make a school carnival easier to host, not to make a health claim. If someone has a health or mobility concern, invite qualified professional advice and offer a genuine way to pause or observe.
For school fundraiser teams, the WHO Guidelines are useful background, not a scorecard. Apply the safeguarding, accessibility, and privacy requirements that govern a school carnival. WHO Guidelines on physical activity and sedentary behaviour.
