Letter Quiz

March 26th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Blockbuster style learning resourceA familiar style of quiz for use on the Interactive Whiteboard. Click a letter to choose it. Ask the question along the lines of “Which T is a…” Select which team got it right, choose a new letter.

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

A bank of questions for Maths is also included. As it is a themed bank some letters are problematic. If anyone can think of better ones for J please comment below.

A user has kindly submitted a greatly expanded set of maths questions for this resource. The variety in this set should allow for much better differentiation as you can pick a question appropriate to the student.

Isometric Shape Draw

March 18th, 2008 · 6 Comments

Isometric maths teaching resourceUse this teaching resource to demonstrate the representation of 3D shapes using isometric paper.

The top half of the screen displays a variety of shapes that can be rotated.

The bottom half of the screen contains an interactive isometric grid. Clicking on one dot and then another connects them with a red line. Clicking on the line removes it. The rotating shapes include use of perspective demonstrating that the isometric drawing is only a representation of the 3D shape.

Update: There was a bug in this where constant rotations knocked the shapes out of isometric perspective. This is now fixed.

Letter Dice

March 3rd, 2008 · 1 Comment

Teaching resourceThe first non-maths activity for this site.  Use as a starter or plenary activity in a literacy lesson. Click roll and the dice will generate a new set of letters.  The rules for how words can be made from the resulting letters will be left for the teachers to decide.

This resource is quite demanding on the computer.  Slower computers may glitch or temporarily freeze when the dice are rolled.  To minimise this make sure that no other applications are running at the same time as this resource.  If you have any suggestions or problems please leave a comment.

Space Dice

February 27th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Interactive Whiteboard DiceTrue 3D dice to use on your interactive whiteboard.  Select to display one, two or three dice on screen.  Click ‘Roll’ for them to roll.

Useful in probability lessons and at any other time when a random choice needs to be made.

 As the dice used on this resource are in real time 3D, slower computers may glitch or stutter occasionally.  Try rolling only one dice if this happens.

 As usual please leave feedback on any problems you might encounter or comments on how you have used this resource in your lessons.

Shape Reveal

February 19th, 2008 · 7 Comments

Screenshot 

Inspired by the fact that students seem to love “wiping” the interactive whiteboard.  A set of shapes are obscured by a scratchcard.  Either direct the student to a suitable square or let them choose.  They can scratch off the covering and reveal part of the shape underneath.  A discussion about shape properties can then be had.

The instructions include a key to the shape numbers and which part of the grid covers which part of the shape. 

Flash Player 9 required.
