SPaG activity 9
looking at the active and passive voice.
Rules
Both teams start at the starting point on the plank. The Pirate King / Queen acts as plank master and asks the questions.
They then take it in turns to roll the dice. They then decide if they wish to move their counter towards safety or move the oppositions counter towards danger and the edge.
To move towards safety they must turn an active sentence passive.
To move the opposite player towards danger they must turn a passive sentence active.
The Pirate King / Queen asks the question.
If you get the sentence wrong you do not move and it becomes the oppositions turn.
Good luck and avoid walking the plank.

In every area of working life today we are all looking for continuous improvements to reduce waste, increase efficiency and still deliver a quality product.
We are going to look at how the tools for continuous improvement can be used in the education sector to help you as leaders make improvements. The keys for continuous improvement are
Have the majority on-board with the changes you want to implement (there will always be some against any form of change).
Do not make changes for the sake of changes – changes should have value and be for the benefit of all, not a vanity project for one (even if the one is in charge).
Changes should be incremental, whole sale changes cause confusion and can lead to animosity.
The process should be fluid where all stake holders feel they have a voice in the process.
Using GEMBA, 5 WHYS, CAPA and MUDA-MURA-MURI you will have tools (and forms) to help you look for waste and develop a culture of continuous improvement.

A one off English lesson plan where the class use their imagination to think of an artefact from the past that has imbued with magical abilities and then write a story about it and how they would use it today.
With Christmas approaching, here is an assembly that looks at the festive season in Hawaii. It is full of information about the food, celebrations, Santa's routine and the language along with a famous song. I hope you enjoy.
Follows on from SPaG activity and activity 2. The aim of the game is to make a sentence (or two) that gets you across the board. There are two teams / players against each other, who will be first to complete the journey from A to B.
each player takes it in turn to pick a card from the pile to see the next word they should play ( verb, noun, punctuation etc.) if they cannot play the card they miss a turn. You can simplify the game by the types of cards you put in the pile,depending on the groups ability you have.
Good luck.
If you download this and get some really good sentences I would appreciate a picture or explanation of the board on the feedback section. Thank you
