A great little spinner to liven up the ESL classroom. Works with Powerpoint and Google Slides. Simply click ‘spin’ to start the wheel off, press ‘stop’ to choose a number and ‘reset’ when you want to choose a new one. Can be customised although slides are carefully linked to ensure the spinner works so labels need to be changed individually rather than copied and pasted. Possible Uses: Assign each student a number and use it to decide the order they answer questions in. Link each number to a different topic, grammar point each to decide which one to practise next. Practise the numbers with VYLs or use it to practise Maths in English. Use it to decide how many target words students must use in a sentence/paragraph or how many sentences they must create for a certain learning point. The possibilities are endless!
