There are pre-made activities in the resource browser. These are good warmups.
Same goes for templates.
Cloze activity. To make a cloze activity fast, right click on a word (after cutting and pasting) and click extract text. Which will pull the word out. Then you can use the paint bucket tool to colour the word the same as the background. Make the words bigger or smaller to stop the smart kids from matching the size of the box to the word.
Colour reveal - can be used for many things. Two backgrounds, text matches one, so when it's moved you can see what it is. Eg. Fox in blue, es in red on red background reveals foxes on yellow background.
There are four layers in a flipchart. Annotations on top, objects in the middle, empty bottom and background, which is always fixed at the very bottom. The object browser can help show what is on the page and where it is (the level).
You can take pictures of a video as it is playing so you can order pictures afterwards (sequence the story).
To embed Youtube video, go to insert-link-embed HTML (and put code from YouTube in).
