About these wheels
This hub gathers every classroom spinner wheel on LetsSpin so teachers can find the right one in a couple of seconds instead of hunting through a long list. The wheels split into three jobs: choosing a pupil, choosing what to work on, and choosing how to start the session. Knowing which group you need is usually the fastest way to decide.
If you need to choose a person, the classroom name picker and the general name picker do the same job at different scales — one is built around a class list you paste in, the other is a quick anonymous draw. The standup order wheel is the one to reach for when you want an order for the whole group rather than a single name, which suits presentations and reading rounds.
If you need to choose content, the subject wheel, maths topic wheel, science topic wheel and spelling wheel each narrow a curriculum area down to one thing to work on, so revision sessions stop stalling on 'what shall we do first'. For lesson openers and transitions, the question, icebreaker and creative writing wheels give you a prompt without any prep.
Two other tools pair well with these wheels: the seating chart generator for arranging the room, and the raffle picker for prize draws and rewards. Everything runs in the browser, is free to use, and needs no signup — you can put a spinner wheel for teachers on the projector and start the lesson.
Frequently asked questions
Which classroom spinner wheel should I use for picking pupils?
Use the Classroom Picker when you want to paste your real class list and draw from it, and the Random Name Picker when you just need a fast anonymous draw from names typed in on the spot. If you need an order for everyone rather than one pupil, use the Standup Order wheel instead.
Can I use these wheels on an interactive whiteboard?
Yes. Every wheel scales to the width of the screen, so it works on projectors, interactive whiteboards and tablets. Open the wheel page in full screen and spin it directly — there is nothing to install and no signup needed.
Do I have to re-enter my class list every lesson?
You can edit any wheel's entries and then use the share button, which puts the entries in the page link. Bookmark that link and the wheel opens with your class already loaded next time.
