"I copy the pages onto a flipchart on the electronic whiteboard. That way the class can take their time at it, as we use it as a half-hour settling in activity rather than a starter to the numeracy lesson proper. I use it with a Year 4 clsas, so a lot of the starters are too advanced for them. However, they have got on well with the ones we have used. Would be delighted to see similar written specically for KS2!"

Teacher, do your students have one to one access to computers?
