Thanks for taking the time to describe how you use it – I’m sure that will help others. I programmed this one a while ago and I can’t remember how the pie chart is generated so I’ll need to look into labelling the angles on the pie chart and whether it is possible.

Fantastic!!!

Brilliant piece of software- I’ve used it 4 times now as a ‘getting to know you’ tool for classes (right the way from years 7 to 10).

I ask for everyone to say their name then their favourite tv show in rapid sucession (you get to show you’re human when someone slips up and says them in the wrong order- I still call one of my year 8s “Hollyoaks”!). Then you can get your formative assessment on with questions building up from “What does frequency mean?” to “How many degrees will this be on the pie chart?” and “Why?”.

Thanks for all the great lessons,
Tom

P.S. Any chance you could put some angle labels in degrees on/with the pie chart pull out- or would that look cluttered?

I think this resource and all materials on this website are of a very very high quality.

I think you are correct to make them as usable as possible at the IWB. Some ‘interactive’ resources are restricted, but despite some limitations, I think you are making good design decisions.

Thanks for providing these free, I will definitely be using them and sharing will colleagues.

I am so thankful for your resources. I spent ages trying to create something like this and it came no where near what you’ve done. Can’t wait to get back to work and use these with my kids in Year 3.

A fantastic resource as are all of the other resources on this site. Thank you.

What a shame ‘anonymous’ can’t find the good grace to acknowledge that what you produce does have many uses and is also free!!
