Review Game Wheel
Review lessons work best when students don't know what's coming next. Instead of topics, this wheel spins the kind of question: true or false, fill in the blank, explain it in ten words, draw it, give an example or teach it to the class. A few wild cards like double points and steal a point keep teams on their toes. Pair it with your own question bank in any subject, and keep score on the classroom scoreboard. Since the categories don't depend on content, the same wheel works for a spelling test on Monday and a science unit review on Friday.
How to use it
- The wheel is ready with 16 entries. Press Spin, click the wheel or press Space, and the result appears in the middle.
- Open Edit entries to change the list for your class, or press Use my class instead to spin your students' names.
- Press Present (or F) to show just the wheel on the board. Turn on Take winners off the wheel in Settings if you don't want repeats.
Ways to use it in class
- Team quiz: a team spins, you ask a question in that style, and correct answers go on the classroom scoreboard.
- Exit ticket: spin once and every student answers one question about today's lesson in that style.
- Student-made: groups write a question for each category, then swap and play another group's set.

Questions teachers ask
Can I change what's on the wheel?
Yes. Open Edit entries to add, remove or reword anything, one entry per line. Your changes last until you leave the page, and Restore brings back the original list.
Can I spin my students' names instead?
Yes. Press Use my class instead to swap the entries for your saved class, with absent students left off. Press the back button in the same place to return to this wheel's entries.
Is every entry equally likely?
Yes. The result is chosen with your browser's cryptographic random number generator before the wheel moves, and every slice has the same chance. Turn on Take winners off the wheel in Settings to avoid repeats.
Will ads show on my projector?
No. Press Present (or F) and the screen shows only the wheel and the Spin button, in large type for the back of the room.
