Make Learning Interactive!
Engage your students like never before with a random picker wheel. It's a fantastic tool for making classroom activities more dynamic and fun.
1. Student Selector
End the "who goes first?" debate. Use the wheel for calling on students, creating groups, or choosing a line leader. It's fair and transparent!
2. Vocabulary Game
Fill the wheel with vocabulary words. Spin it, and the chosen student has to define the word, use it in a sentence, or act it out.
3. Story Prompts
Spark creativity! Load a wheel with characters, settings, and plot points (e.g., "A brave knight," "in a spooky castle," "finds a secret map"). Spin for each category and have students write a story.
4. Review Questions
Make exam reviews exciting. Put topics or question numbers on the wheel. Spin to select a question for the class to answer together.
5. Reward Wheel
Motivate students with a prize wheel. Fill it with simple rewards like "5 extra minutes of free time," "Sit with a friend," or "Choose the music."
