Keyword Jumble
January 28th, 2008 · 3 Comments
This interactive whiteboard classroom activity produces a scrambled maths keyword for the students to solve. Alternatively enter a word for the computer to scramble and present. Useful as a starter to the lesson or to fill some time for the early arrivals while waiting for the rest of the students to arrive. Have a word projected on to the ineractive whiteboard ready for students to unscramble.
As this resource also allows custom keywords to be entered it can be used for subjects other than maths.

Hi Spencer, tried to enter some key words but some of them have gone all wonky. Is there any way I can delete them also is there a limit to how many letters I can type? I tried parallelogram but it went all weird. I am doing 2d shapes next week and we have ofsted so I really do want to get this right… any ideas please

Patricia’s comment was resolved by email, but so that others know…
There is an 8 letter limit.
Custom words can only be entered and generated one at a time and cannot be persistently saved. This is possibility when the new Flash Player is released later in the year.
A custom version of the resource which uses only 2D shape keywords has been published for Patricia. If anybody else would like a custom list (especially for other subjects) please do get in touch.
