Help me give my students opportunities to earn individual grades during Kahoot and Quizziz sessions and not having those without phones feel left behind when their classmates are participating in these interactive online quizzes.

My Students
My students are very hard-working and respectful. They’re creative and seem to have fun when learning about science when I am teaching them! There are students in the classroom that are on different levels and it would be of great benefit for myself and the students if I can assess them individually with the help of online quizzes that they find fun, rather than handing out paper quizzes which intimidate them and also add on to the loads of assessments that they have to complete on paper. My students all have willingness to learn and perform well and they deserve to have more resources than what is currently available to them.
My Project
Students who do not have phones or devices to connect to the online quizzes are often times paired up with other students that take control of answering the questions, at times making the other students feel as if they are lacking the opportunity to answer the questions in the way that THEY want. They work well in teams but sometimes individual participation can help a student build more confidence within themselves and “show off”, or flaunt, their knowledge. When students are limited to working in groups 100% of the time due to lack of resources, it makes it a bit difficult to see what these individuals may need help with and what I should focus on having them study or do for the following class. Seeing the individual strengths and weaknesses of students is extremely beneficial. I believe that there is a time for team work & there is a time for individual work. For these quizzes, it would benefit myself and the students if they were all able to participate individually or at-least in smaller groups of 2, maximum.
