I have used this resource as part of a study on Victorian times and the Industrial Revolution. It contains some information about lighting in the past with follow-up questions. The children are then encouraged to carry out their own research on this subject.

This is a little Easter basket, decorated with bunnies. The necessary templates are provided on the second and third sheets.

A simple worksheet in which children need to recognise and use action words.

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

A simple powerpoint presentation with words and pictures containing 'a' as in the word 'plant'.

Basic map skills encouraging children to identify countries in Europe and complete a key.

This is an art activity based on still life drawing, painting and collage which will result in each child producing a triptych of pumpkin pictures.

These two information sheets have varying amounts of detail about Victorian times. One is simpler for lower ability groups and the other is more demanding. There are follow-up questions and suggestions for further research.

This is just a Christmas picture for children to colour in. It makes a nice activity to do at the end of the Autumn term.

These are display posters of vowel phonemes with examples for each one.

An acrostic poem which gives the rules for behaviour in the classroom. Children remember it because it rhymes and it is, hopefully, not too severe.

This is an eye-catching card to make for any occasion. I have included full instructions, including a photograph of the finished card and a template for the balloon shapes. These cards could be made for Christmas or any celebration. You could add more details depending upon the context.

This is a nice art activity to do with children in the run-up to Christmas. The final stage is a bit fiddly, but the children really enjoy making their Santas dance.

This sheet contains several different puzzles based on magic squares. In each bauble the number is given which each line must add up to and the numbers which can be used are written next to the baubles. The second sheet contains the answers.

This is a maths activity based on the song The 12 Days of Christmas. The children need to find the total number of presents given each day and the total number over the 12 days.

A simple worksheet to demonstrate understanding of statements and questions.

This is a simple sketch map with activities based on recognition of cities, seas and islands.

These are two Christmas-themed certificates which can be given to children at the end of the Autumn term to celebrate the work that they have done. You could add their names in the central box, or your own name.

This is a simple powerpoint about the development of the telephone from Alexander Graham Bell's first phone to modern day mobiles. It was quite scary to find that I could remember so many that are now historical artefacts!
