After their training session, a school reached out for further support on how to guide their pupils through Clicker’s Writing Grids to encourage independent writing.
We spoke with Sophie, a Year 1 teacher who was using Clicker to support her pupils with non-fiction writing.
During a recent demonstration, I was showing a school how you can add words to Clicker’s Word Pool (dictionary) so that they are included in the Spell Check. And, because Clicker reads aloud what pupils have written, I also showed how Word Pool can change the way Clicker pronounces a word. Schools are frequently interested in this tool because it enables them to add the correct spelling and pronunciation of pupils’ names.
I recently ran a webinar on using Clicker as part of your whole class teaching. Clicker is an invaluable support tool, but we recognise that not all schools have the licenses or devices for every pupil to access Clicker in every lesson.
In a recent conversation with a secondary school, we discussed how DocsPlus could be used to support learners in PE. We focused on how to assist students when reading or writing PE-related content, both in lessons and in exams.
The challenges faced by students learning English as an additional language are multi-layered. They are not only learning English, but also learning curriculum subjects through English.
We’re thrilled to announce that Clicker has won the '2024 Primary Resource or Equipment – ICT' award at the Education Resources Awards!
Having taught previously, I know how important it is to have fun, easy methods for assessing pupils’ understanding throughout the term and hopefully avoid any end-of-year surprises!
