A collection of resources from my own encounters with bugs and insects that I curated for my class and our minibeasts module. For use with ecology, colours, or habitat topics.
A brief look at the nautical origins of the English language nursery rhyme 'Jack Be Nimble, Jack Be Quick, Jack Jump Over the Candlestick'. Includes a free YouTube video and free, downloadable PDF file.
This resource could be used by students with English as a foreign language, as part of a rhymes or poetry lesson, for World Oceans Day topics, or alongside any class themes about oceans, pirates, explorers, or the Caribbean. It may also be of use in a debate about women on ships, and the historical role of pregnancy in the legal system. May also be of interest to students learning about Yellow Fever, vaccinations, immune system, and effects of alcohol.

I took these photos as I was writing my ‘Primary School Diaries’ novel, soon to be published on Amazon for ages 8 and up. As part of my planning I had stuck lots of post it notes on the wall to help me order my thoughts, and as I transferred the notes onto my computer, I scrunched each one up and threw it in a pile. The pile could look like failure, but to me it was a picture of success, or breaking down a big task into little bite size chunks, and the pile of screwed up paper growing as I achieved each little task. I hope these photos will inspire students with their own studying or challenges they face.
A PDF download and accompanying YouTube video about the origins of the nautical words ‘port’ and ‘starboard’. Would link in nicely with class topics such as World Oceans Day, Anglo Saxons, English language, oceans, and explorers.
