Why You’ll Love Boom Cards Fast Play
Boom Cards Fast Play: It’s so easy and effective!
Boom Learning’s Fast Play feature is a game-changer for teachers. This tool allows you to assign specific decks to individual students or the whole class instantly. No printing, cutting, or laminating is required – simply generate a Fast Pin code and share it with your students. They can enter the code on any device and start learning right away.
With Boom Cards Fast Play, you can quickly:
- Assign decks without needing student accounts.
- Engage students with interactive and visually appealing cards.
- Provide immediate feedback to students, enhancing their learning experience.
Additionally, Boom comes with comprehensive teacher tools to track student progress.
You can purchase decks from my store or other teacher-authors, with new content being added regularly. Some decks, like this Fact and Opinion set, are even free!
If you don’t find what you need, creating your own decks is easy and fun.

Engage Your Students with Boom Cards
Interactive and Fun Learning: The cards are bright, appealing, and provide immediate feedback on answers. Students earn badges and awards for completing decks, which is sure to motivate even the most reluctant learners. Each student has their own account and can log in from home or school, allowing you to assign decks as homework or activities to do with parents.
Built with Input from Teachers
Boom Learning was developed with input from educators to ensure it meets the needs of both teachers and students. This collaboration began with my idea to put task cards on iPads and continued through feedback from a Beta group of teacher-authors. The result is a dynamic app that’s perfect for classroom use.
