I'm a tired teacher just like you; fighting to balance the importance of my own life with the fun and high level of education I want to give my students.
I hope these resources save you time so you can focus on the important things in life.

As children return to school, this bundle is hoped to help introduce the ‘new normal’ while having fun. It also contains a range of outdoor based acivities and resources inorder to bring the classroom outside for safety without compromising on learning.
This bundle contains:
-A welcome back to school assembly
-Welcome back to school quiz
Time Capsules of the past powerpoint
2020 Time Capsule Worksheets
Bug Hotel powerpoint and worksheet
Mud Kitchen STEM challenges for EYFS/KS1/KS2
Blank Mud Kitchen Recipe Sheets
A lot of these activities are adaptable to be complete independently or at home incase of a local lockdown or virtual learning. They also contain varying abilities which are suitable throughout the key stages.
I hope these keep you and your kids safe, while having fun :)
A welcome back assembly script to introduce kids to some of the changes Covid 19 has made on school life. The assembly can be adapted to be given by the staff or a class. In my school it will be recorded by the year 6 children and staff members and shown in every class as we are unable to accomodate assemblies.
Staff members thought this was a fun and light way to highlight changes in the school, but also to emphasize the love and care which is still in our school environment.
It includes 29 speaking parts, 1-2 acting parts and 2 songs with lyrics and links to music.
Enjoy!
Includes step-by-step instructions both written and drawn as to how to create a cartoon lion. There is both a word and Powerpoint version.
I’ve used activities like this regularly to improve my classes listening, confidence in art skills and get used to positional language.
I have used this in RE when teaching Daniel and the Lion’s Den as well as science when studying animals. If you wish to use this as a literacy activity I have an alternative resources which is the same but altered to find word classes or focus of imperative verbs.
I would use this activity throughout the keystages giving the picture step-by-step for younger ages and simply giving audible steps for older classes.
Hope it saves you time :)
A fun assembly introducing the Royal Family beginning with Aethelstan the first King of England. It includes 29 speaking parts, 1 song and costume suggestions.
This is a great way to introduce the Coronation of King Charles and a tribute to Queen Elizabeth, but can be used anytime to teach the timeline of the Royal House of Windsor. We used this script for the teaching staff and used one memeber of staff as the narrator. This script is aimed at key stage 2 onwards but as usual can be adapted for younger kids, particularly if the teacher narrates or narrators read from cards.
Hope this saves you some time :)
Cut and laminate this chart to display at the front of your class. Children will quickly learn what noise level you expect within specific lessons. Great evidence of clear clear expectations within lesson observations.
