Student

ANSWER BUTTON

TWO WAYS TO USE EGGSPERT

“Quiz Show”

In this mode, the teacher poses a question and the first student to press his or

her “answer button” gets to answer.

1. Give each student (or group of students) an ANSWER BUTTON.

2. Set a time limit (no limit, 5, 10, 20, or 30 seconds) for student to answer the

question. (TIMER)

3. Choose “time out” sound: tone or voice. (TONE/VOICE)

4. Now ask a question.

(“Who was the first president of the United States?”)

5. As soon as a student presses his or her button, the corresponding colored

“egg” beeps and lights up. Then EGGSPERT will begin ticking down the time

clock. That student then has the specified amount of time in which to answer

the question. If the student answers before time runs out, the teacher resets

EGGSPERT by pressing the white CONTROL BUTTON.If time runs out

before the student answers, the teacher resets EGGSPERT by pressing the

CONTROL BUTTON.

EGGSPERT’s two unique modes (“Quiz Show” and “Wheel of Fortune”) will help you integrate this motivational learning aid into your

daily classroom activities. Please refer to pages 4 and 5 for explanations and illustrations of EGGSPERT’s special features.

USE EGGSPERT

“Wheel of Fortune”

In this mode, EGGSPERT picks who will answer a question!

(Note: Student answer buttons are not needed for this mode.)

1. Assign each student (or group of students) an EGGSPERT color.

2. Set the TIMER.

3. Choose sound: TONE or VOICE.

4. The teacher presses the white CONTROL BUTTON to set the egg lights in

motion. Eggs light and beep in sequence, gradually slowing until only one egg

remains lit.

5. The student assigned to that egg must answer the question before time is

up. If the student answers before time runs out, the teacher resets

CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES WITH EGGSPERT

Practice math facts, spelling words, social studies content—just about anything related to classroom curriculum—with EGGSPERT.

Question-and-Answer Games

This is a great way to reinforce content! Pose a question to the students

playing. The first student to press his or her ANSWER BUTTON sets the

corresponding egg beeping and blinking. During the preset answer time,

the student must answer the question. After answering the question, or

when the timer runs out, the teacher resets play with a quick press of the

white CONTROL BUTTON. Here are some content ideas:

READINESS: colors, numbers, shapes

MATH: math facts, math problems, story problems, math vocabulary,

patterns, probability

LANGUAGE ARTS: spelling, vocabulary, grammar

SOCIAL STUDIES: geography terms, map and globe skills, vocabulary,

famous people, historic dates and places

SCIENCE: vocabulary,science terms, picture recognition, content

questions, plants, animals, human body

MATH READINESS—COUNTING AND CHARTING

Press the white CONTROL BUTTON to set the eggs in motion. If the last

remaining egg is blue, ask all students wearing blue pants to stand up.

Then create agraph on the chalkboard depicting the findings. HINT:You

can pre-select specific colors by moving the Player Select slide on the

desired color to the position on the right.

MATH—PROBABILITY

EGGSPERT can be used to generate data on probability. For example,

pose a probability question to your students: “In 20 consecutive spins,

how many times will each egg be the last egg lit?” Press the white CONTROL

BUTTON to set the eggs in motion. Have students chart their results.

This makes a great center activity.HINT:Turn the volume to its lowest

position so as not to disturb other students in the class.

TIES WITH EGGSPERT

anything related to classroom curriculum—with EGGSPERT.

Set the lights in motion by pressing the white CONTROL BUTTON. If the

orange egg remains lit, all students must write down as many words

beginning with letter sas they can before the timer runs out. Do the same

for short and long vowel sounds and ending consonants.

blue = Byellow = Dgreen = Torange = Spink = Mpurple = L

LANGUAGE ARTS—PHONICS FUN

Assign a consonant to each colored egg (see example below).

GEOGRAPHY—MAP READING

Use EGGSPERT to play geography games. Assign continents to each of the

egg colors (see below). Press the white CONTROL BUTTON to set the

eggs in motion. If the yellow egg is the last lit, ask a student to find a

specific place in South America (country,mountain range, river,city,etc.).

HINT:You may wish to set the timer for easier questions, but not use the

timer for more difficult ones.

blue = North America yellow = South America

green = Asia orange = Europe

pink = Africa purple = Australia

SCIENCE—HUMAN BODY

Put the names of the major bones of the body on flash cards and place

them in a box. Seat students in six rows, assigning a different EGGSPERT

color to each row. Press the white CONTROL BUTTON to set the eggs in

motion. The first person in the row of the chosen color picks a flash

card from the box and must identify its location on a drawing of the

skeleton. Rows get points for correct answers.

MORE CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES

COLORING TO EGGSPERT

Have your students create artwork using EGGSPERT as a prompt. Using

the six colors on EGGSPERT, have students draw to the music. When the

light lands on the yellow egg, all students must draw with their yellow

crayons. When the light lands on green, students use their green crayons

to color. Use the timer (or the music) to determine the length of time

students draw with one color.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION—“EGGSPERT” MOVEMENTS

Assign a different body movement to each color and watch EGGSPERT lead

your students in a rousing exercise regimen.

Press the white CONTROL BUTTON to select the first body movement. If

the pink egg lights up, students begin running in place. Press the white

CONTROL BUTTON again after 20 seconds. Students continue running

in place until the new egg color lights up—and they change movements.

Continue for several minutes to get full advantage of this unique

exercise activity.

Blue: hopping on one leg

Yellow: jumping jacks

Green: side kicks

Pink: running in place

Purple: jumping and twisting

Orange: toe touching

JUST FOR FUN!

EGGSPERT CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT

EGGSPERT is a great classroom management tool. Assign EGGSPERT’s

colors to the groups in your class: Blue, Orange, Purple, Yellow, Pink, and

Green. Then when it’s time to make a decision, let EGGSPERT choose.

“Which row goes to lunch first?” Let EGGSPERT choose.

“Who will read the next paragraph?” Let EGGSPERT choose.

Need to create baseball teams or project groups? Select two to six colors,

depending on the number of teams or groups you need to create. Each

student comes forward and presses the white CONTROL BUTTON. If the last

egg lit is green, for example, then that student is assigned to the green group.

“What team are you on?” Let EGGSPERT choose.

“What project group are you part of?” Let EGGSPERT choose.

CARNIVAL GAMES

When it comes time for the school carnival or a fund-raising event,

EGGSPERT can be a valuable resource. Here are some examples:

Trivia QUIZ SHOW Booth: For this activity you can have from two to six

contestants at a time. Give each participant a colored ANSWER BUTTON. Ask a

question. The first person to press the button and answer correctly wins the

round. Keep score on a chalkboard. The participant with the highest score after

5or 10 questions wins a prize. (HINT:Using questions from commercial trivia

games saves set-up time.)

Spin and Toss: For this activity you’ll need to create a backdrop (from wood or

heavy cardboard) into which you’ve cut six holes of various sizes. Color the outside

of each circle one of the EGGSPERT colors. The participant presses the white

CONTROL BUTTON,setting the eggs in motion. If the yellow egg lights up

and begins blinking, the participant must throw a tennis ball through the yellow

hole before the timer runs out.

Spin and Throw: This activity is similar to Spin and Toss. Just substitute

balloons and darts or colored cups floating in a swimming pool pond for the

backdrop and ball.

“Teacher,May I?”: Assign each participant an EGGSPERT color and have them

line up, shoulder to shoulder. Set the eggs in motion. If the green egg remains

lit, all “green” participants must follow the teacher’sdirections (“Take one

giant step forward”). Play continues until the first person crosses the line.
