For use in both EYFS and Key Stages 1 and 2, here’s my lesson planning template shown on my Instagram. This lesson plan template is what I used when planning my interview lessons or one off activities. The lesson planning templates is ideal for writing in detail about lessons where you are not familiar with the class allowing you to keep a detail record of the resources you will need. The template has the following sections: Lesson Information Resources Starter Main Input Main Activity (Continuous Provision for EYFS) Plenary TA Support Notes This download includes both a PDF version for writing on directly or an editable version for typing onto. Please note the fonts are embedded but titles are not yet editable.

Here are my job application forms to match my classroom jobs!

Jobs included in this resource: Water Bottle News Reporter Register Monitor Lunch Counter Class Librarian Chair Stacker Morning Greeter Mail Person Eco Team Teaching Assistant Photographer Messenger Line Leader Tech Team Class Leader I am using these in my classroom to emphasise the importance of the jobs and their role in the classroom as well as get the children excited about the chance to be a part of the class! To use this resource, simply click in the black box and start typing! I recommend saving the finished document as a PDF file and then printing them all 2 to a page. Keep these as originals and then you can photocopy as many as you need. I’m also introducing the jobs to my class first and making these forms available for the children to fill in and hand in whenever they want!

There’s a lot of debate around using PowerPoint in lessons, it’s a bit like marmite but for me, having slide provide a sense of routine and structure both for me and the children. I find that having the same thing on the board helps to set the day and start transition between lessons. Here are the Daily Slide I use every single day with my class! This PPT Set include: Morning Work Slides Morning Meeting Slides Break Time Slides Lunch Time Slides Hometime Slides Blank Slide for editing! The fonts used in these slide are KG Blank Space (available free on 1001Fonts) and LetterJoin (KG First time in Forever is a free alternative with a similar look)

Hand Signals > Hands up! In my class, I taught the children to use hand signals to communicate various needs including needing the toilet to needing help. This has cut down on shouting out, interruptions and has even supported the children’s communication and independence! If you want to know more about how (and why) I use hand signals, feel free to read my blog post! Note: These hand signals were made using a paid resource from Lidia Barbossa’s clip art so I haven’t included all the available hand signals!

The resource is Year 1 High Frequency Words written on wolves. I made the resource for my class to have a ‘wolf hunt’ as part of our Three Little Pigs Unit. The blank wolves are from Sparklebox

A 1 page Job application form with embedded fonts for you to change the jobs! If you have my classroom jobs, this was made to go along side it! If not, just change the job titles!

I have so many resources from last year and wanted to share them to clear my hard drive! haha These are some visual instructions of how to use your brain break area (or calm corner!)

I wanted to some certificates that did more than reward children for good work or good behaviour and the “of the week” certificates were born! These certificates rewards values such as teamwork and friendliness as well as other learning qualities such as creativity, mathematical thinking and exploration. Each certificate have a quote relating to the award at the bottom of the page Certificates included in this resource: Mathematician Friend Team Player Explorer Musician Inventor Artist Inventor Scientist Author Reader Star I am using these in my classroom alongside Wholehearted School Counselling’s “I am an … when” resource to let children know what it means to have these qualities and will be giving them out during our weekly Friday afternoons to take home. To use this resource, simply print either full size or 2 to a page (depending on your preference), add the child’s name and comment, sign underneath the ‘Keep up the good work’ caption and hand out! The fonts SHOULD be embedded but if they aren’t the headings are KG Blank Space and the main text is KG First Time in Forever both found on dafont!

When I recieved my timetable for the year, I was baffled! Between the colours, highlighting and confusing abbreivations, I couldn’t work out what I was teaching let alone when! Here is a MUCH simpler template that I used to rewrite my timetable in a way I could actually understand! The download includes 2 completely editable templates , 1 horizontal and 1 vertical to suit your needs as well as a how to guide to help you make it your own!

Thank you for stopping by!! I made this product as a way to monitor the behaviour in my classroom and I’ll be using it in September with wooden pegs that the children decorate!

Love Powerpoint? Same! In my class, I use a weekly PowerPoint to keep my day in order from Monday’s morning work to Friday’s Goodbye message!
