My World Screens

These are a set of screens to be used with the software My World or My World 2 on an Acorn/RISC OS system or on a PC. They were invented and created by students as part of their teacher training course.

They may be downloaded by clicking the right hand mouse button on the picture of each screen.

For specific instructions for each type of computer see below.

If you try them out with children and have suggestions for improvements then please email us.

A General Coin Screen

This screen has a copy layer of all coins up to £1. Tasks may be entered using the My World text icon and then saved for different groups of children. It might also be used in !Draw as the basis of new screens with graphics imported/drawn by the teacher.
