I upload resources that I've made for my own use from teaching Year 3, 5 & 6 for many years. Most are free, but I charge what I think is a fair price for resources that took me ages to make!

KS2 UK cities treasure hunt activity

Useful activity for an engaging KS2 lesson on location knowledge focusing on UK cities. Both the clues and the map/key can be easily edited to change the locations etc. Also useful for introducing KS2 children to compass points. I have delivered the activity by spreading the clues around the classroom to make the activity more interactive.
