Clicker and Widgit Symbols - Top tips

Many schools already use Clicker to support writing and Widgit Symbols to aid understanding. Now, these two trusted tools have come together - Clicker Desktop and Clicker Writer now include 10,000 Widgit Symbols at no extra cost. 

This update adds a powerful new layer of scaffolding to Clicker’s writing support. Students can use symbols to access vocabulary, build sentences, and better understand key concepts. What’s more, they can choose when and where to add symbol support, giving them greater control and independence in their writing.
