Magic Magnifiers and Square Roots

Apologies to regular readers who may already be aware of these resources… they’ve already been available for some time but I wanted to point them out properly in a blog post.

The first of the two flipcharts contains various ‘magic’ x-ray magnifying glasses, which can be used to reveal hidden text or diagrams on the flipchart page. This is often an incredibly effective way of increasing pupil involvement in a lesson… it also beats writing out an answer hands down :)

The second flipchart provides a solution to an ongoing problem with ActivStudio, concerning its inability to produce a square root symbol.

Both flipcharts contain full instructions on how to add these features to your own pages. To download, right click on either of the links below and and select Save Target As…
