How to use it
In your classroom
- Choose your class's year group on the start screen, then press Mix it up for a bit of everything, or Pick a topic to practise one thing.
- Read each question together, type the answer on the number pad and press Check. Press Tools for base 10 blocks, number lines and other pictures that help.
- Read the hint when an answer is not quite right, look at the highlighted part of the picture and try again. After the last try, a worked example goes through it step by step.
- Press Teacher view on the summary at the end to see every question, the mistakes children made and what to practise next.
- Choose Mini whiteboards to put a grid of questions on the board for the whole class. Children answer on their own whiteboards, then press Reveal on each card.
- Press and hold Teacher to choose your nation and set the timer, feedback, tries and topics. Press Make a code there so the whole class gets the same questions.
Put it on the board in full screen (press F). On Mini whiteboards, press 1 to 9 to reveal a card, A to reveal them all and N for new questions.
Times tables gives quick practice on the tables you choose, with or without a timer, and Year 4 classes in England can try MTC practice.
The summary gives each child a code for next time, which brings back the topics they need to practise.
