Read Write Inc- letter formation, set one, using pre-cursive letter formation, 4 on an A4 page. These have been created and used in a school using Read Write Inc but also using pre-cursive letter formation as it is so hard to find them. It has the instructions for “up we go” and “off we go” (including lead-ins and lead-outs to letters) added to the usual Read Write Inc instructions to complete the Pre-cursive letter formation. These have been a really great aid with teaching and to send to parents if needed. As they were so useful at school, it is hoped they may be helpful for others.

This “gift” cursive letter formation handwriting sheet may be useful at Christmas or other times of the year as it is not always easy to find this style of letter formation. The extension on the bottom could be covered verbally if that was suitable or written if preferred. The colouring could be a challenge for some children, so more or less detail could be required when completing that. It has been useful at Christmas, and may link with our song and video as we remind people about Christmas being a special time of year and caring for others.

Have fun singing along with our incredibly unusual Christmas tree. 4- and 5-year-olds made the tree using hand prints for a wonderful display on their classroom wall. We wish you could have been there to see their astonished faces when their tree came alive and sang this song. It was this song that those charming children sang so enthusiastically at their concert. There are reminders about caring for others and sharing. This time we have given it all a make-over and added the lyrics. https://youtu.be/tuSx5Cv_gWY?si=9S3eXf7zwaDa0YdR

This worksheet aims to stimulate discussions about “What Makes a Good Friend?” There is a lesson plan to help to use the resource but it can be used in many ways including in PSHE or PSHME lessons, or as an assembly about good friends or to aid learning English “good friend,” vocabulary. TBot is back and this time he is helping us grasp how to be a good friend. He knows that it is not always easy. It’s great fun to singalong and there’s plenty to discuss. TBot hopes we can see what it takes to be a good friend and that we will talk about relationships and feelings. He would love it if we can all understand and use good friend vocabulary, (words and phrases.) Discussions can include pupils own experiences of social and moral dilemmas in everyday life.

Read Write Inc Ditty Sheet 10 Odd One Out worksheet print font version After using the marvellous RWInc Ditty sheets, we found it useful to let some children use these “Odd One Out,” reading sheets. In my classes I have always found children enjoy this type of sheet and they hardly realise how much reading they are employing in order to complete them. It is important to let the pupil try to blend (Fred talk)/read every word as they go and if some need some extra guidance for that, you will soon know that they need the help. Some red words may also be included. I have made lots of these for the other Ditty Sheets and if they prove useful I can put more on TES. They may prove productive for some pupils if your school does not use RWInc. You do not need to use the extension if not suitable of course or more able pupils could write their sentences.

If you need evidence of a child’s number bond learning, then this sheet may help you with that. It asks them to use 2 numbers to make 20, then 25 and then 30, in different ways using a simple layout. You could use it as a practice sheet as well. I have used a font style with precursive lettering as this was requested for the class that has used it. Called Number Bonds Quiz 3 as I also created sheets for higher numbers.

Networks. Have fun singing along as TBot explores computing and networks, (available in up to 4K). No matter how you pronounce data or whether you spell Internet with a capital I, you can start lessons with our network song and video. Don’t dive into teaching and learning about the www and the Internet until your pupils know about networks. Networks, no matter which type, are all about connecting. Once this groundwork is mastered, you can build on that knowledge to find out about all the different ways we connect. Is it true that some don’t know about the undersea cabling that apparently carries over 95% of all international Internet traffic these day? The incredible journey of our data around the globe is fascinating. But where to start? Networks, of course! The Internet, that global network of networks, can be confused with the World Wide Web. The Internet is the part that does the connecting and the data travels on it, like a road network where the delivery vans travel on the road to bring items to your home. Of course, unlike a road, you cannot always see the Internet and its network connections. The video is packed with real world imagery, visual depictions generated by DALL-E AI and animated humorous moments. Can you spot the cat and the dog? How do they use a network? Remember you can pause or replay our entertaining video if anyone needs more time to take it all in. Our worksheet serves as a starter on networks and could involve work in pairs or groups and should involve group discussion. Computer networks vary hugely and there is not one answer to how they are set up and the order things connect, but realising that there are many components and what they are, is a start. National Curriculum Computing Program of Study KS2: Pupils should be taught to understand computer networks including the Internet; how they can provide multiple services, such as the world wide web; and the opportunities they offer for communication and collaboration. KS1: recognise common uses of information technology beyond school. PUPIL OBJECTIVES/LEARNING OUTCOME: Pupils will be able to understand a network is something that connects. Pupils will be able to understand the Internet is a global network of networks. Pupils will use vocabulary connected with computer networks and devices.

Make a funny flap book or reading game using early Read Write Inc words and pre cursive font. This was made as a fun activity to use at school and during remote learning periods. The first page is an explanation aimed at helping parents to understand how to make the book or game, but it can easily be completed at school as well. The game sheets are made using a pre cursive font as that was the style of handwriting used at school. It was felt beneficial for the pupils to try reading this style too. It could be used as an example to encourage older pupils to make their own flap books. As it took quite a while to create this, it is hoped it may be of some use to aid others in their learning. Have fun!

What is decomposition? Wondering how to explain decomposition? Looking for an exciting way to introduce a computational thinking session including decomposition? If you are tackling problem solving in any subject you could start with a rousing song! It’s a sure way to help us all to remember that word: decomposition. Decomposition may not be too hard a concept for many people, who understand that you need to break a big problem down into smaller parts/steps/chunks that are easier to understand and to organize. It’s a standard problem solving technique used in everyday situations as well as in education across different subjects Attempting to organize those chunks can be a great stride in logical and computational thinking, and the steps needed to complete the problem take you fully into abstraction and algorithms, of course. Packed with real world imagery, visual depictions generated by AI and animated humorous moments. Remember you can pause the video if anyone needs more time to discuss any text that is on the screen. Part of being a computer programmer is breaking down a big problem into the smaller problems that make it up. By asking questions about the problem and then looking at the answers to those, you can break down a big problem into smaller problems and then you can use a computer to solve them. When computer scientists are writing a program they may break the code into small chunks. They would look for patterns in their code and can reuse useful chunks of code for other programs. PUPIL OBJECTIVE/ LEARNING OUTCOME: I can solve problems by decomposing them into smaller parts. To understand that when problem solving, it can be useful to break up a problem into smaller steps/chunks. There are a variety of sheets including ones with an open choice for the problem to attempt to decompose. You may find that pupils are better using large plain paper to formulate ideas, especially if they work in groups. It is very hard to produce one sheet as a structure for different decomposition problems as they are so varied.
