Mini Apps are what we call our collection of small, fun interactive activities. They were developed by The Northern Grid in collaboration with schools. The activities are easy to use and appropriate for individual, group and whole class teaching via an interactive white board.
The original remit for the activities was to create small interactive applications in order to meet specific requests from teachers in the region. By creating the activities with Adobe Flash it is a relatively simple process to tailor and refine the applications following constructive feedback from teachers. You will need the latest version of Adobe Flash Player.
A big thank you to Epinay School for their ideas and help in making these resources.
