Hi there!
First and foremost, are you using the Spolin book? That has ideas galore! And just when you think you've done them all, then you can combine them in different ways, and you suddenly have TONS more options.
Second, let's set up a time to chat. Working with teachers by helping them with improv in their classroom is quite literally what I travel the country doing. We could arrange a time to Skype/Facetime, and discuss what you've already done, and create possibilities for the future.
Third, you wrote you are using improv at the beginning of rehearsals for fun and community. Great! Are you also using it for character development for their roles, how to conquer stage business (especially those in the ensemble), and even things like eye contact and physical presence?
All this to say, you're never out of "good ideas". :)
Let's chat soon!
Onward!

I'm running improv theater games for the beginning of rehearsals with my troupe to improve improv skills ad well as build a sense of community and fun. I've been doing it for the past few weeks and have nearly run out of good ideas. Does anyone have any? Thanks!
