About PiXL Unlock App
This is an app for both Primary and Secondary school students (the app will recognise which version to show based on your login details) on the back of the success of the PiXL Times Tables App.
Both versions of the app build a better understanding of key vocabulary through games developed around the following five areas:
1) Read it
2) Define it
3) Use it
4) Link it
5) Deconstruct it
The games are:
Grupoo (Primary version only)
Bubble Pop
Take Note
Sticklady Ladder
Bob
Let's Go Fishing
Word Jumble (Primary version only)
Links
Card Sort (Primary version only)
All of the questions answered by students are registered in our database and the app makes the results easily accessible to key staff through tables or quadrant graphs. What's more is the results also go into our national competition and staff will be able to see how their schools are positioned to others.
