Frame Decorating Activity (20 minutes): Distribute plain paper frames and guide students in decorating them with colored paper, crayons, or markers. Encourage them to choose themes like Santa’s workshop, snowy scenes, reindeer, or Christmas trees, promoting imagination and creativity.
Share and Explain (10 minutes): Have students present their decorated frames to the class and explain their design choices. Foster a supportive atmosphere by encouraging positive feedback from peers.
Closing Activity (5 minutes): Conclude by discussing where students might display their frames at home, suggesting they use them for family photos or personal artwork. Remind them how frames can transform ordinary pictures into cherished memories.

18 Different Maths and Grammar SATS Tests (Hundreds of differentiated practice questions!)
I want to make KS2 SATs revision fun. I want it to be something students and teachers really enjoy. I have taken each of the SATs revision tests and combined the original test papers and the original marking schemes into PowerPoints where you ask a question and immediately see the the answer on the next slide. This teaching packs covers KS2 Maths and KS2 SATs SPAG tests (Spag is English grammar, punctuation and spelling Papers)
The idea is that you can now ask a question and all your students show you the answer on their mini-whiteboards and then you discuss the answers together and see what would have got one or two points. As the students can work in pairs or small groups on the questions, they are less stressed and enjoy the whole revision process. In addition, it gives them a chance to learn about other student’s strategies.
This pack could be used in the classroom for whole class teaching, for small groups or at home as a great teaching resource.

Why is Mental Math Important?
Mental math skills are crucial for young learners, especially in Year 2. Here are some key reasons why mental math is important:
Foundation for Future Learning: Strong mental math skills provide a solid foundation for more complex mathematical concepts in later grades. It helps students develop a deeper understanding of numbers and operations.
Improved Problem-Solving Skills: Mental math encourages students to think critically and develop problem-solving strategies. It teaches them to approach problems from different angles and find efficient solutions.
Increased Confidence: As students become proficient in mental math, they gain confidence in their abilities. This confidence can positively impact their overall attitude towards math and learning in general.
Real-World Application: Mental math is not just an academic skill; it’s a practical one. Students will use these skills in everyday situations, such as budgeting, shopping, and cooking.
Enhanced Cognitive Skills: Engaging in mental math activities improves cognitive functions such as memory, attention, and concentration. These skills are beneficial across all subjects and areas of life.
By incorporating mental math into the Year 2 Block 3 Termly Maths Assessments and utilizing the YouTube and PowerPoint Combo approach, we are setting our students up for success. Together, let’s empower our young learners with the skills they need to thrive in mathematics and beyond!

Here’s why educators should consider incorporating a Noise Level Monitor PowerPoint Presentation into their teaching practices and how it can be utilized effectively.

Interactive Learning Opportunity: Educators can involve students in discussions about noise levels and their impact on learning. This interactive approach fosters critical thinking and encourages students to reflect on their own contributions to the classroom environment.
Customizable Features: The PowerPoint presentation can be easily customized to fit the unique needs of any classroom. Teachers can modify the noise level indicators, add classroom-specific rules, or incorporate visuals that resonate with their students, enhancing relevance and engagement.
In summary, a Noise Level Monitor PowerPoint Presentation is an invaluable resource for educators, promoting effective classroom management, self-regulation, and collaboration.

Here’s why educators should consider incorporating a Positive Behavior Display into their classroom management strategies and how it can be utilized effectively.
Collaborative Goal Setting: The Positive Behavior Display allows teachers and students to work together to identify 12 key positive behaviors they want to encourage in the classroom. This collaborative approach fosters a sense of ownership and investment in maintaining a positive classroom culture.
Engaging Rewards System: By collectively deciding on 12 rewards for achieving these positive behaviors, the display makes behavior management fun and engaging. Students are motivated to strive for these rewards, which enhances their commitment to exhibiting positive behaviors.
Visual Motivation: The bright and colorful design of the Positive Behavior Display captures students’ attention and serves as a constant reminder of the behaviors they are working towards. The inclusion of track and racing cars adds an element of excitement, making the process of tracking progress visually appealing.
Encouraging Peer Support: As students work towards achieving positive behaviors, they can support and encourage each other. This promotes a sense of community and collaboration within the classroom, enhancing social skills and teamwork.
Flexible Implementation: The Positive Behavior Display can be easily customized to fit the unique dynamics of any classroom. Teachers can adapt the behaviors and rewards based on their students’ preferences, ensuring that the display remains relevant and motivating.
Boosting Classroom Morale: Celebrating achievements and rewarding positive behavior fosters a positive classroom atmosphere. When students see their efforts recognized, it boosts their self-esteem and encourages them to continue striving for excellence.
