How to use Explorify

Welcome to Explorify! We’re over the moon that you want to learn more about Explorify, but we know you’re short on time, so here are some tips and answers to get you started.

Our activities start at just fifteen minutes so are perfect to slot into your day. Teachers tell us they often use them at the start or end of a session to settle and focus a class, for an early morning pick-me-up or the post-lunch slump! Some teachers use our activities as golden time rewards, as an introduction to start a new topic or for assessment at the end of a topic.

We’ve designed our activities to require little or no prep – perfect for busy teachers! Activities such as Odd One Out, What’s Going On? And Zoom In, Zoom Out have been created so that all you need is a screen and an internet connection. Our hands-on activities ­– Mystery Bags, Problem Solvers, Mission Survive – will require you to have a look around the classroom for items you might be able to use, we suggest you trawl the junk cupboard or recycling box for some makeshift building materials!

If you do have access to a printer, why not download our classroom posters and stickers to get you started?
