Dingbats
Say what you see. A word or phrase hidden in the way the letters are arranged. One at a time on the board with a reveal, or a printed sheet of twelve with the answers on the back.
Answers (print on the back)
How to use it
- On the board: press Next, let the class shout, press Reveal. Space bar reveals, then moves on. Shuffle for a new order.
- Printable sheet: twelve puzzles on a page, answers on the next page. Shuffle for a different twelve. Set the printer to "print backgrounds" if the black box looks empty.
- The maths set works for Pi Day and the last lesson before Christmas. Pupils designing their own is a good ten-minute extension: they get a blank box and swap with a partner.
Keys: space reveal then next, ← → move, F full screen. Every puzzle here was drawn by us; if you have a classic we are missing, send it to hello@togethered.uk.
