07 Jan Ready Made Lesson Starters on NumBots
Here are three hassle-free, ready-made lesson starters – free for all NumBots subscribers!
We have three simple, ready-to-go activities for you to use as lesson starters, form time or anywhere you need a calm, focused beginning. They’re quick to dip into, easy to repeat, and flexible enough to use in different ways. Sometimes, that’s all you need to get things moving.
1. NumBots Scrapheap Stories
Start sessions on a calm, positive note with our NumBots Scrapheap Stories, a set of seven growth-mindset stories. Free to watch on YouTube, each one explores a different value and gently weaves in ideas that support learning (and a bit of everyday life too).
Access here:
2. Bot Trumps
Bot Trumps is a simple card game for two or more players, featuring our bright and fun NumBots characters. Each card comes with scores for positivity, courage, determination and resilience, making it easy to play and quick to pick up.
