Virtual Manipulatives : Spinner

This spinner turns out to be very useful when talking about probability. The class can conduct an experiment and compare to their own results. The fact that you can change the colors to numbers and a combination of both or even anything that you would like to have in a spinner. What I also like about this manipulative is that it can record your results as you use the spinner. Even though you can only use it for maybe a day when teaching a lesson on probability, the use of technology will be very helpful.
