A new set of letters is generated every game but it never includes the letters X and Z.

A game designed to be played on the interactive whiteboard, probably with a small group with the intentions of encouraging development of mental maths skills. It is best used for a maths competition at the end of the lesson. Entering the answer with an interactive whiteboard is easier within the given time as there is no need for the mouse to travel. There are two versions; one which gives multiplication questions and one with addition questions. The difference between the given answer and the correct answer is how many ballons are burst. Inspired by old fashioned theatre.

An experimental interactive whiteboard resource. Its purpose is to allow some of the benefits of an expensive visualiser to be used in the average classroom. Use a webcam to project objects on to the interactive whiteboard. Take snaps and annotate them, swap between the snaps and keep the annotations. Snap students’ work and point out what’s good about it. Sadly this resource is limited by the detail of the average webcam. Anything less than 1.3 megapixels will not scale up to interactive whiteboard size. A 1.3 mp will not be a perfect picture either. Nevertheless as a demonstration aid this still has uses. Please leave feedback on how you have used it.
