Clicker Grids for Learning: New, free resources from Crick Software

Crick Software is launching a new free service to teachers and other users of Clicker 3. Clicker Grids for Learning can soon be found on the Crick Software website at www.clickergrids.com. Clicker Grids for Learning is a growing bank of ready-to-use Clicker grids.
The many thousands of schools using Clicker will find this an invaluable resource. Clicker is an extremely flexible writing and multimedia tool for children of all abilities. Children write by clicking on words, pictures and sounds in grids designed by a teacher. Clicker Grids for Learning is a categorised collection of high quality grids, many with graphics, that are ready to use as they are, but can also be easily modified.

The grids initially focus on literacy, and will grow to cover all areas of the curriculum. A short description and screen shot on the website enables you to browse through the sets of grids before downloading for use in the classroom.

The range of grids will be regularly updated and teachers and other users are invited to send grids to Crick Software for inclusion in the scheme.

Ann Crick, who will be managing Clicker Grids for Learning said: "Many teachers are producing wonderful Clicker resources to use in their classroom – this service will spread good practice, enable the sharing of ideas, and will save teachers’ valuable time. It’s exciting to think that teachers in Birmingham can be sharing grids, not only with teachers in Aberdeen, but also in Melbourne or Chicago. Why re-invent grids that have already been made?"

Clicker Grids for Learning are free to all registered Clicker users, who will also be expanding their Crick Picture Library when they install the new grids. The service will be launched for the new school year on September 7th .
