Level Up Your English Class with Flippity

Are you looking for a free, easy way to make your English Language Arts (ELA) lessons more exciting? Meet Flippity.net.

Flippity is a free website that turns simple Google Sheets into interactive games and tools. You don't need to be a tech expert to use it—if you can type in a spreadsheet, you can create a game!

Top 3 Flippity Tools for English Teachers

• Flashcards: Perfect for vocabulary or literary terms. These aren't just plain text; they can "speak" the words aloud, which is great for pronunciation and helping English Language Learners (ELLs).

  
  

• Game Show: Create a Jeopardy!-style board to review a novel before a big test. Categories could include "Characters," "Plot Twists," or "Vocabulary."

• Random Name Picker: Put your students' names on a digital spinning wheel. Use it to fairly choose who reads the next passage or who starts the class debate.

Why Teachers Love It

• It's 100% Free: No "Premium" versions or hidden costs.

• No Student Logins: Just send your students a link, and they can start playing immediately.

• Fully Customizable: You can update your word lists or questions in seconds just by changing a cell in your Google Sheet.
