Wheel spinner for teachers
A name picker wheel answers the hardest question of the school day: who answers next? Project the wheel, spin it and let chance pick fairly and transparently for the whole class. Free and without sign-up.
Why use a wheel in the classroom
- Fair participation: every student has the same odds; nobody can claim favoritism.
- Less anxiety: chance decides, not the teacher, so the pick stops being personal.
- Attention and play: the spinning animation turns any class routine into a game.
- Zero prep: swap the names in seconds and reuse the same wheel all year.
How to use it in class
- Create your wheel with the studentsβ names (or duplicate the sample name picker wheel).
- Project the screen and hit SPIN when itβs time to participate.
- Share the link so students can spin it from the interactive whiteboard.
