Our new resource Primary Quiz is now available!

As a Teach Active subscriber, I wanted let you about a new resource that we have developed – and also encourage you to give it a try this summer term!

As you know, at Teach Active we are all about ‘active learning’ – and 18 months ago we spread that a little further after looking at the research between 'Active Bodies' and 'Active Brains'.

We all know how important it is to keep the brain active, and how ‘brain training’ type activities can benefit children’s learning. With this in mind, last year we began working with Educational Consultant and ex Primary Headteacher Conal Holmes, an expert in developing games to connect brain neurons and excite and stimulate the brain.

Together, we worked to develop our new brain training resource ‘Primary Quiz’

Primary Quiz is a website full of online games, quizzes and puzzles for the teacher to use with the class – think ‘wordle’ or ‘sudoku’ – but for children – all the activities are designed to stimulate thinking and discussion, to strengthen connections between short and long term memory and to help children learn new skills and retain key knowledge.

Whether you use Primary Quiz at the start of the day, for warm-ups, plenaries, entire lessons or even just with SEN groups, Primary Quiz is guaranteed to excite, engage and enrich your children’s learning. And with SATS just around the corner, this will be invaluable for your Year 6 teachers. Primary Quiz SATS Arithmetic Quizzes cater for every type of arithmetic question to have ever appeared on the paper. All the grammar, punctuation and spelling objectives are covered too!
