Recently, we spoke with a teacher who said that one of their favourite features of Clicker is that you can quickly turn a Clicker Board into a Word Bank!
Students can contribute their ideas to a whole-class discussion on a topic, and the teacher can collate the ideas using Clicker Board on the whiteboard. The Board can then be turned into a Word Bank and shared with students to use to support their independent writing.
This allows students to transition seamlessly from planning a piece of writing to producing their writing using a wide range of vocabulary.
With this vocabulary available in a Word Bank, learners can easily add words to a piece of writing and use Clicker’s built-in speech support to hear any words read aloud. They will also have access to all of Clicker’s support tools throughout their writing.
Clicker is a flexible tool, so you can create mind-maps related to anything that suits the needs of your learners. For example, you may want to collate sentence starters, character descriptions, or key vocabulary linked to a topic you are studying in class.

There are hundreds of ready-made Clicker Boards available on LearningGrids, or you can create your own!
