Play board and card games that can be finished in under 10 minutes.
Love Letter | Amazon | Video review -- plays in minutes. You'd be surprised how much fun and strategy a 16 card game can pack. It's for 4 players.
Score each round as an individual win, instead of the official method which is the first person to win 5 rounds wins (it would take too much time).
Love Letter: Batman | Amazon | Video review -- might be a more palatable retheme for the students. There is one rule difference which you should ignore because it would result in multiple round winners -- correctly guessing another player's card
earns you a victory cubeonly knocks your opponent out of the round.There are many official Love Letter rethemes, but they all introduce rule variations. So be careful about choosing other themes.
Telestrations | Amazon 6-player | 8-player | 12-player | Video review -- It's like the telephone game, but with drawings.
You write a word in a notebook, flip the page, draw a picture of that word, flip the page, and hand your drawing pad to the person on your left. Then, you take your new notepad handed to you by the person on your right, look back at the last drawing, then flip forward and write what you saw, flip the page, and hand the pad to the left. When you eventually get your own pad back, everyone shares their pad one at a time. It's hilarious.
Skip the scoring system. It's beside the point of playing.
Your challenge is finding the right group size to play the game with your limited time, and strictly enforcing the time rule where people stop drawing when the time is up.
You can also play this game on the cheap by stapling sheets of paper together. But Telestrations uses a dry erase note pad, and if you use real paper you'll be going through a ton of paper. The name of the do-it-yourself version is Eat Poop You Cat, for a reason lost to time.
Ask /r/boardgames for suggestions on 10-minute games that meet your target number of players. And ask for which Love Letter rethemes would interest teens the most, while not being too different from the original Love Letter.
For durability of card games, look into getting protective card sleeves. /r/boardgames can point you to sleeves that will fit the specific games you have.
