Visual Story Prompts Randomiser

Visual Story Prompts Randomiser

(75)
This little PowerPoint randomiser whizzes through 20 writing prompts. Press the Up arrow key to stop it and space to space to start it again. You could also choose the prompts for you. For SEN students the visuals are useful to help engage students. Thanks to Writing Prompts Blog for most of the ideas. I have localised and added to the original 15.

Printable GCSE Glossary

Printable GCSE Glossary

(4)
This is a printable ICT GCSE Glossary to help students with the Edexcel GCSE in ICT. Annoyingly there is not one in the back of the students book, so I’ve tried to create this one for students folders. I’ve also included an Excel version, which can be used for resource development and on-screen viewing. Please let me know if there are any words missing.

Glossary for Edexcel GCSE ICT

(12)
This is a simple glossary for the Edexcel GCSE ICT. It can be used as a lookup tool for students, to ensure that students have the appropriate vocabulary and to create other resources. Please let me know if there are important words missing or words you would like including. This version is not intended for printing, but for on-screen use.
Theatre Posters

Theatre Posters

(3)
I made this for a performing arts enrichment for the students who did not want to be in the play. Students try to design a poster aimed directly at the audience by: 1. Having a standout image 2. Using the minimum amount of text 3. Being very clear about the audience & their motivation for seeing a play. I hope this PowerPoint saves you a bit of time trawling around for theatre posters and gives students some direction as to what is expected when making this kind of poster.
Advertising the Game

Advertising the Game

(3)
This resource was used in ICT to encourage students to make their own advert, but could easily be adapted for reluctant writers or made into an assembly to show how advertising works. i.e. Selling products people do not want to buy. This resource requires a newer version of PowerPoint or the player.

Business Departments

Business Departments

(3)
This was made, because my A-level ICT students had no idea what business departments were and what they did. It is a simple sheet to make sure that students know the VERY basics.

Platformer using minimal code (Scratch)

(7)
This little platform game uses the least code, I could possibly get away with. Nice for newbies to code a 'Mario' style game. Also my students tell me its actually quite a challenging little game. Easy coding doesn't necessarily mean an easy game...

Leonardo Da Vinci Assembly

Leonardo Da Vinci Assembly

(0)
This assembly resource is great for encouraging students to respect those with special needs. Leonardo Da Vinci was one of the greatest creators of the renaissance and yet he was Dyslexic. In addition to the core PowerPoint and Word File (Which students could hold up if there is no projector) There is also a Bingo game and Word Search.
