Reading is a ‘silent’ process for many children. When first learning they do not possess the ability to imagine what the written word is telling us. They have many, many other skills they have to master before they can get there. This powerpoint is aimed at beginner readers and to try and put some fun into reading. They read it and then they have to match it to the correct picture. With a picture to help young children visualise what they are reading, they have a purpose to reading it too and not just going through the motions. This powerpoint is designed to be used independently, but can obviously be used as a teaching aid too. I made a lot of resources for traditional tales that can be printed off and laminated. Then the idea was for the children in my class to access these independently, either by using pegs to match the answers or other ways to work out the answer like using bottle tops with letters wrote on them. These resources are available in my shop. This resource is exactly the same as the one you can print off using pegs to indicate the correct word to match the picture, but it is for use on the interactive whiteboard. Again, children can access this independently as it does say when you have the wrong answer or it can be used to model the printed version. All they need to do is click on the correct bottle top to indicate which letter comes next in the CVC word. Each picture has three words and the child has to choose the correct one. The powerpoint indicates if they have the answer correct or not.

This independent game has been made to use alongside the Numberblocks episode ‘The Legend of Big Tum’, where the Numberblocks meet a mysterious big hairy monster with a big hairy tummy who loves puzzles. They work together to work out who is in Big Tum’s tum! It teaches children how to find missing numbers with the Numberblocks . This is a powerpoint based game that I created to put on the interactive whiteboard for them to play independently. It is for numbers 1-5 and the children can click which number they think is in Big Tum’s tum. It will then take them to a screen to tell them if they are correct or not. If they are incorrect they then go back to try again but if they are correct they go onto the next missing number. The game will cycle back to the beginning once all the numbers are done. At the start I have included the first part of the Numberblocks episode too to give the children an idea of what they must do.

The best way for young children to understand numbers is for them to ‘play with maths’. This means using lots of concrete resources until they have a true understanding of our number system. Without this vital step, children will not be able to visualise maths and therefore will struggle later on when dealing with abstract maths. The next step is for children to use what they have learnt with picturial representations. This still enables them to visualise the maths without being able to ‘play with it’. This powerpoint will fit within the pictorial element of the process. Saying that, it is also a lot of fun for children to play the games and experience Numicon in a different way. Children are expected to click on the number (out of three options) that matches the Numicon shown. It them shows them if they are right or wrong. The powerpoint is fitted with a cBeebies Numberblocks theme as my daughter and current class love them but as it is powerpoint you can change this to fit any theme your children love.

Numicon is a great resource to help children understand the meaning of numbers. The idea with this resource is for children to match the silhouette of ‘buildings’ to the Numicon on the side of the screen. The game then tells them if they got it right as that Numicon forms in the correct position or if they got it wrong using a Batman GIF. This resource was designed for children to access independently while I sit with a guided group during their independent learning time. They can access it via a whiteboard. This Powerpoint/game helps children recognise and learn numbers 1-5.

This resource has been made for the children to access independently during child initiated time. They can watch the Numberblocks number 1 song on the first slide and then they have a selection of slides which show the number 1 or other numbers. The children need to answer the questions - Is this 1? The children need to click on the yes or no to answer the question and then they are shown if they are right or wrong. If they are wrong, the slide will go back to the question so they can try it again. There are lots of variations of how to represent 1: Dice Fingers Ten Frames Numicon And this material is supported with Numberblocks throughout the slides.

This powerpoint is designed to be used independently, but can obviously be used as a teaching aid too. The idea behind this resource is that children have a word they should read. It has sound buttons underneath to help them and they are mostly CVC words. When they have read the word, they should click on the picture that matches the word. The powerpoint will tell them if they get it right or wrong so they can do this independently or with yourself as guided reading. I made a lot of resources for traditional tales that can be printed off and laminated. Then the idea was for the children in my class to access these independently, either by using pegs to match the answers or other ways to work out the answer like using bottle tops with letters wrote on them.
