Some ideas for using Teams for Live teaching...
1) Use Microsoft Forms within a Live lesson for assessment checks
2) Set students a blank document as an assignment, students can make notes and complete work on the assignment, allowing you to see what work they are doing Live - ensure you select the 'students edit own copy' option
3) Use the first slide, as a Welcome slide task - set an activity or question for students to complete/think about whilst you wait for everyone to join the lesson (from experience this can take 5 or so minutes into the lesson)
4) Set students on a task, give them the option to leave the Live lesson - stay online to help any who have stayed, or any who rejoin for support. Reducing the number in the Live lessons increases the students confident in asking questions
5) Embed Socrative "space race" into the lesson, Live stream the race for students to see as they answer the questions
6) Set an additional Microsoft Forms Quiz, allowing students to write longer answer questions (within the chat on a Live lesson you can share the link to the quiz)
7) Ensure the students have to wait in the lobby, and only you are able to allow them to enter. This ensures you are ready and set up before “students arrive”
8) if you are lucky enough to have Dual Screen share your second screen rather than just the presentation. Then you can drag and drop anything you need live into the lesson
