Watch and remember the 20 objects scrolling across the screen on an animated conveyor belt. Afterwards children write down as many objects as they can remember, or alternatively the teacher could ask each child in turn to list one.
There are two slides with two versions of this game. If you’d like to create a third, simply right click on each image and select ‘Change picture’.
A fun way to give points to a class, group or individual. When they complete a classroom task, they choose a door which either has a 'bag of money' with plus points, or has a robber with minus points.
Also attached is a 'no robbers' variant.
A small & quick puzzle I used as a filler. What are the titles of the 7 Christmas songs shown in Emoji?
The 'pack' includes the 7 songs as individual PNG files, and 1 PDF file of them all.
Enjoy!

A comprehension activity to help children read and understand the Bible story of the crucifixion from Mark chapter 15. Read the story on page one, then answer a handful of quick questions into a crossword on page two.
An outline for a whole school assembly for Primary school - Collective Worship. One I did for the first week of advent, but can be easily adapted for any week in December. Using the Bible passage Isaiah 9 (God's Son, The prince of peace, The king).
Create your own keyword guessing game. Kids pick a letter, click it on the screen and any matches will appear in your chosen key phrase. (It is similar to hangman, but there is no hanging-man or consequences for a wrong guess - sadly PowerPoint can't do that!)
Zoom out of the slide to see full instructions on how to create your own game.
Please note: Depending on your version of PPT the font may change slightly - but you can easily draw a selection box around everything and change the font if needed.
A fun Christmas Quiz consisting of 6 rounds with 40 questions in total. The six rounds are: Christmas movies (8 questions), Christmas anagrams (6), Celebrity pictures with Santa disguises (8), Christmas music (5), Christmas chocolate (6), and a Memory picture round (7). It's a slight alternative to the 'pub-quiz' or multiple choice style.
The 'pack' consists of: A well designed PowerPoint presentation (in 2 halves due to file size), a blank question sheet, and a filled in answer sheet.
The classic game of pairs - One click on the number tile reveals the picture, a second click hides the picture.
The first file is a Disney friends version - the aim is to pair together the friendships (e.g: Piglet & Pooh / Woody & Buzz / Batman & Robin). The second is a lego version - match the same minifigures. Both files have three reshuffled 'games' ready to go.
Please note: If you want to make more: Move the picture and the number tile together - then just retype the number. If you move just the picture then the animation triggers won't function properly.
Children can pick one of four cars to 'back'. The cars then race across the screen and come first, second or third. This can be used as a quick and fun way to pick which group or child 'goes first', or perhaps as a quick starter to refocus children.
The 'pack' includes four PowerPoint presentations:
Two of them are full screen timers - either 30 seconds OR 5 minutes. The other two are corner timers - again either 30 seconds OR 5 minutes.
The 5 minute timers: The circles containing 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 minutes don't count seconds, instead they will slowly rotate for 1 minute. When the time is down to 30 seconds it will spin each second.
The 30 second timers exit spin, one per second.
The timer has a transparent surround, meaning that the orange background can safely be changed to any colour or any lesson.

An activity to help with ordering from 0-10 or 0-20. Simply cut out all the pieces and encourage children to rearrange the sections to make a rocket.
There are two zip files:
The first contains an A4 and an A3 copy of the rocket to cut out (as on the cover image).
The second contains an A4 and A3 copy of the rocket made - to print out and display.
