Here are timers that you can embed onto your PowerPoints for varying times.
1 minute, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes
They are in video format so could be embedded or displayed seperately.
Fully adaptable pen, paper dice template.
Students have a sheet each (you could use different levels, or just one for all), and a pen and a dice between 2.
They take turns to roll a 6, the first player to roll a 6 wins control of the pen and starts translating filling in the gaps. The second player is still rolling for a 6. When they’ve gotten a 6 they yell 6 and have control of the pen.
Students all know how to play this so for a COVID safe version they will have their own pen, paper and dice.
QR codes on a powerpoint slide with links to Quizlet, Memrise and Word reference.
Easily editable with the link in the comment section - just copy your own links then snipping tool the code over.
I have also embedded the link to the code image, so that students can use this on a computer. Otherwise, this will be stuck in their books for them to use their phones.
