A fair way to call on students
Calling on the same few raised hands is easy — but it leaves quieter students behind. The Classroom Name Picker spins through your whole class list and lands on one name at random, so every student has an equal chance to answer, read aloud, or lead an activity. It takes the pressure off you and adds a little fun to the room.
How teachers use it
- Cold-call fairly: spin to pick who answers the next question.
- Assign turns: reading, presenting, or solving a problem on the board.
- Make groups: use elimination mode to draw students one by one into teams.
- Pick a helper: line leader, monitor, or attendance helper for the day.
Add your own class list
The wheel comes pre-filled with sample names in both English and Hindi (हिंदी) so you can see how it works. Replace them with your students — type one name per line, or paste your list from a register. Switch on Elimination mode when you want each student picked only once, which is perfect for fair group formation or a turn order that covers everyone before repeating.
