Hello! I'm currently a mixed year group KS2 teacher in a small school in Northamptonshire. I'm in my fifth year of teaching and I am the subject lead for Art, DT and Music. The resources I upload are mainly things that I either couldn't find anywhere else online, so made myself, or creations I've made after being inspired by others! I hope some of these are helpful for you :)

These labels can be stuck on boxes for the children to use as a self-assessment tool. It also makes it easy for you, as the teacher, to identify who needs some extra help! The bitmoji just makes it more fun - it’s editable so you can add your own bitmoji, or use a different image, or just take the image away!
