I also included a set of motivational quotes which you can discuss as a class or you could use them as thought of the day. In addition, I wrote a second presentation about the 31 different teaching activities you can use in the classroom based on these teaching resources. You could print off and laminate the photos to make an interesting, eye-catching display about Anti Bullying Week. The students could also take the laminated photos and sort them into different groups. The photos could also be used as prompts for creative writing, factual writing or descriptive writing.

Anti Stress Colouring Book - Enjoy some colouring therapy.

(0)
Teachers need some fun to. This is my adult colouring book for teachers. You could print it out for your class to quietly colour during tests (when they have completed them to calm and relax them), or during long staff meetings - nothing is more relaxing and constructive than a little light colouring. This is to encourage staff to have a little time every day to think and reflect and not work. This is my attempt at improving the good life balance of staff. All these images were in the public domain. In the majority of the cases however, it took both a long time to find, then even longer to use editing software to sharpen and improve the images. I would love to know what people think of them.

Want to inspire your students? These pictures form the basic parts of a story to get them thinking. The pictures can be simply mixed up to change the story. The different pictures from the different stories could all be mixed up to create a really interesting mash-up of different stories. A real challenge is to see if a class can create a whole story from all the different images in the presentation!

Each slide has an idea, a linked picture and a discussion point for the class.

Information Gap 1 - Looking for a Job

(0)
Information Gap 1 - Looking for a Job Get the students working in pairs. Give one person of each pair the Student A page and the other the Student B page. There are four different jobs being advertised in the local paper. However, there are ten gaps on each page. Students should ask each other questions to find out the information that is missing from their page, then write it down, asking for spellings as necessary. Encourage them to communicate verbally to get the answers, rather than letting each other look at their pages! When all the students have finished, bring the group back together and ask checking questions to elicit the answers, as well as to find out how much the students have understood about the other material in the adverts.
