What is Classroom Wheels?
Classroom Wheels is a free website of classroom tools for teachers, built around spinner wheels and one shared class list. A teacher types or pastes a class list once, and every tool uses it: the name wheel, spinner wheel, random name picker, random group and team generators, seating chart generator, classroom timer, noise meter, bingo card generator, classroom scoreboard, yes or no wheel, coin flip and 20 ready-made wheels for topics such as brain breaks, sight words and times tables. An EZ grader scores tests, and a reading fluency calculator times readings. Absent students are left out automatically. Picks, spins and groups use the browser's cryptographic random number generator, so every student has the same chance. Class lists are stored only in the teacher's browser and are never uploaded, and there are no accounts, cookies or ads on the projector. Present mode shows any tool full screen on a projector or interactive whiteboard. Classroom Wheels works on Chromebooks, Windows, Mac, iPad and phones, and a teacher can save up to 100 classes.
How it works
Save your class once
Paste names from a spreadsheet or type them in. Mark who is absent today and every tool leaves them out.
Open any tool
The name picker, group maker, seating chart, bingo cards and scoreboard all start with your class already loaded.
Put it on the board
Press Present (or F) and the projector shows only the tool, in large type, with no menus, pop-ups or ads.
Why teachers use Classroom Wheels
One class list for every tool
Most free classroom websites make you retype your class for every activity. Here you save it once, and the random name picker, team generator and seating chart maker all share it.
Fair for every student
Picks, groups and wheel spins use your browser's cryptographic random number generator. The name picker can make sure everyone has a turn before anyone is picked twice.
Private by design
Class lists are stored in your own browser, not on our servers. There are no accounts, no cookies and nothing to install, which keeps school IT and privacy reviews simple.
Built for the projector
Big, calm visuals that can be read from the back row, a light or dark projector screen, and keyboard shortcuts so you can run a lesson without touching the mouse.
