The CLASS Challenge
Make your class the star of English!
A fun challenge to motivate your students and strengthen class cohesion. They take on fun and varied challenges on The Big Challenge PLAY application to shine at national level. Every point counts and contributes to the final victory.
> from 13 – 31 January 2025
Over the last few years, many of you have asked us to create a tool that would enable you to get more students to engage in your classes, especially when some might not feel confident in English. It’s in response to this need that we’ve created The CLASS Challenge.
This event takes place on The Big Challenge PLAY application from 13 to 31 January 2025.
It’s open to all registered schools.
We measure involvement, not level
All students take part and can win, whatever their English level.
Ideal for getting as many students as possible involved in the adventure. The aim of this event is to engage them.
There’s no grade at the end. Only the level of involvement counts.
A fun and stimulating challenge
This event will allow you to involve ALL the students in the class, whatever their level: no mark at the end, just the opportunity to play and help their class win.
There are no individual results, only the overall level of involvement of the class. The whole class wins. Students play to win together. The aim of this event is to create real stimulation within the group.
Each point earned on the application is added to the points accumulated by the class. Everyone contributes to the group’s victory. All the students have their place, the least confident as well as the best. Here, we don’t measure level, but commitment. Because we know, as you do, that commitment is the key to success.
No extra work for you. Once you’ve registered, your students will be stimulating each other. And they’ll amaze you!
The next CLASS Challenges is taking placefrom the 13 – 31st January 2025.
