Wheel of Names by Random Wheel Spin

Random Wheel Spin is a free, customizable wheel of names spinner and random name picker tool for teachers, work teams, friends, and family. Random Wheel Spin has the unique feature where you can add hidden activities, actions, questions, answers or facts behind each entry (this is particularly useful for interactive learning). You can save all your lists, share your wheels, embed the wheel into your own website, add images and colors or even get it to vocally announce and speak the result each time. You can import large lists of names from Excel, CSV or Google Sheets. No sign-up account needed. For teachers, it is more than a random name generator - it's a classroom management and engagement tool rolled into one. When the wheel lands on a student, instead of just their name getting selected, up pops a hidden question about the lesson or discussion topic. Or the hidden section can hold classroom activities or actions, so students discover their responsibilities in a fun, fair way.

The wheel also acts as a digital fidget spinner which is really good for neuro-diverse learners. My daughter is autistic and I created the shark facts wheel for her as it is her special interest. There are many ready made wheels to use on the site, all free to use and share.
