Gettin’ It Ready:

1. Print the spinner out – I like to use 100 weight card as it is a little more rigid than plain photocopier paper.
2. Cut out both spinners. 
3. Laminate and enjoy.

How to Work It:

– Lay a paper clip flat on the spinner and place the point of a pencil on the center point of the circle as shown.
– Hold the pencil firmly and flick the paper clip with your finger so it spins.
– When the paper clip stops spinning the score is the number the endpoints towards.

When to Use It:

– Replace traditional dice in games to cut down the classroom noise a little 🙂
– Create variations of traditional games by introducing alternative numbered spinners eg instead of using a 6 sided die try a spinner with the numbers to 5. 

How to Make It Spin Better: 

Use a compass (the circle drawing one) to put a small hole in the center of the spinner to provide a place to anchor the pencil point.
