What’s included? x3 sheets portrait orientation, pdf format. Includes x6 picture cards, x6 labels and x6 ‘Matching cards’ to position the pictures and labels together on. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one as well as students needing additional learning support. It fits the Year 1 Science topic ‘Plants’. What’s it for? This ‘Spring Flowers’ resource has been designed to encourage learners to recognise and name different common Spring flowers. Learners can sort the pictures, match these to the word label and position them together on the ‘matching cards’ (included). This activity is ideal as a side ‘Spring themed’ ‘interest table’ activity for learners to access and investigate independently. How to use it? The adult can print and cut out the cards included and place on a table top for learners to investigate more closely. This would be lovely with some examples of these real flowers to look at. Resource Details… There are common x6 Spring flowers included for learners to identify, match and label. These are bluebells, blossom, crocuses, grape hyacinths, snow drops and daffodils. Special request ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a new resource if you have an idea just let me know - I’d love to hear from you! Feedback of this Spring Flowers’ resource would be wonderful! Thank you!

This is a brand new resource, hot off the press! but as it is being uploaded on December 7th (a week into December!) it is available for FREE at this time! Happy making and Merry Christmas! What’s included? This download includes x1 portrait orientation pdf to make an ‘Advent Candle Countdown Calendar’ to count down the December days from the 1st to the 24th. What’s it for? This countdown has been designed to be used for by an individual/group or class to countdown the days to Christmas together. It has been designed to be made by or with an adult - an adult leading the way with what the steps are and a child/learner helping with these as they are able. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students with additional learning needs. An older, able, pupil may be able to make this ‘with’ or ‘for’ a younger learner in a paired activity, working together. Resource Details Everything needed for the finished Advent Candle Countdown Calendar is included on the pdf. There are six main instructions and additional, detailed, information positioned next to the relevant parts to make what to do clearer. The main task is to cut along the red dotted lines to cut the candle shape out and separate the ‘flaps’ which will fold over the image (for each day) to hide it. Numbers are provided to stick onto these flaps (in order from the base of the candle to the top), or these numbers can be written by hand instead - whatever is preferred/easiest. Learners will need a pencil (to write their name), a pair of scissors, a glue stick and a small ball of Blue Tac (the size of a small marble) - this piece of Blue Tac will then be made into x24 teeny tiny balls which are used to secure the flaps closed until it is the date to be opened. Suggestions This pdf will need to be printed onto white card or it won’t be strong enough to stand up by itself. Double sided sticky tape might be a better alternative to secure the candle shape together (instead of using the glue stick). Glue/double-sided sticky tape is to be applied to the single purple strip, positioned vertically on the right hand side of the pdf. Read the six steps carefully before beginning to help make the process as easy as possible. Important message… ANY issues with any of this resource please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes. Feedback of this resource would be brilliant. Thank you!
