Sharing the resources I created for myself and have used as part of my teaching practise. I have been a nursery school teacher (4 months - 5 years), a science teacher (KS3-KS5) with biology specialism, a forest school leader, vocational award assessor for Childcare and I am now a specialist SEND teacher. As a result I am able to share a wide range of resources.
