Doo-Dahs

For ActivStudio software. Doo-dahs are a wonderful way to bring information into a classroom discussion in a controlled manner. A Doo-Dah can contain text, annotations or images, even those added or created on the fly. A picture is worth a thousand words, so download the file and have a play. You will soon learn the power of doodahs!

House Points Table

If you have group competitions in your class, this is a neat way to keep a running score (up to a maximum of 30 points per team).

A wonderful collection of clocks. The time comes from your computer's system clock, so if that is correct, these clocks are as well.

Five 10-second timers, each of which culminates in a bomb. And you can even have more timers if you wish by first choosing 'Disable Actions' in the upper right corner and copying and pasting one of the bombs.

This ActivBoard flipchart keeps the scores for up to six competing teams.
