A worksheet on units of time and converting them.

This is a test which I have given my Year 5's at the end of a unit of study on space, the solar system, the moon and the first moon landing.

A worksheet based on the alphabet and developing understanding of alphabetical order.

I photocopy these sheets back to back, mount them on card and laminate them. I cannot take credit for the idea, but I have used them often over the years. It is a great way to encourage children to reflect upon their work and to help their friends to improve their writing. The idea can be used for any type of creative writing activity.

This dance idea starts simply and builds up to produce a whole class performance. The length of the dance is dictated by the children and can be faded out whenever they are ready.

These two sheets are for children to practice plotting coordinates on small grids and to show understanding of reflective symmetry.

Some practice for addition and subtraction of 2, 3 and 4 digit numbers. There are 20 questions on the first two sheets and then the answers are printed on the 2nd two.

This is a series of questions to encourage children to use and understand a calendar. You will need to provide a calendar, but the questions would be relevant for any year.

This is an activity which requires children to create a larger version of the small picture by copying the lines in each square in proportion. It may help the children to do the activity with the sheet upside down so that they focus on each square and don't look at the whole picture.

I can't remember where I found this resource, but you could use it as reinforcement of the 9x table or as part of a unit of work on symmetry.

This dance idea always goes down well with the whole class. You could use any sports theme music, but I have found that the theme from Chariots of Fire encourages children to expand their movements more.

This worksheet is particularly useful for EAL students, encouraging children to ensure agreement between the subject and the verb in a sentence.

A simple worksheet to show understanding of word order in sentences.

This is a simple idea for a Christmas card with pop-up figures. It could be adapted and used for other celebrations. It only requires card and some imagination.

This is a series of ideas for creative writing at Christmas time in primary classes. They can be adapted for different age groups.

These are two simple worksheets which encourage handwriting skills and can then be coloured in. The sheets are differentiated with more complex patterns on one than the other.

This is an idea I found and used successfully. I have made the templates to make it easier to create the finished product. I used the sheet as a design template for a mug which the children then decorated and gave as a gift for Mother's day.

This is a reading log to use with a class reading book. I laminate them and they can then be used with any book that the class reads together. I have used it with year 5 and 6 classes. More able students can work independently whilst others can receive more help and guidance, e.g. providing questions to help them find the main events in chapters.

These two worksheets go together. I provide 10 different types of food which the children have to identify by taste only. I usually do this alongside smell tests to encourage the children to focus on one sense at a time. You could provide whatever food that you want. I tend to use fruit and vegetables, with the addition of cheese and chocolate so that we always end with something that everyone likes! Be careful of children with food alergies. I do this as part of a topic on food and the digestive system.

This is a quite simple art idea as long as everyone follows the instructions. The end results look really good as a display in the classroom and I find that the children usually really enjoy it and want to make more.
