Clever Bee Resources

Average Rating4.69
(based on 34 reviews)

After 19 years at the chalk face, I have a very good idea of what works and what doesn't. The resources in my shop have all been designed and used by me throughout my career and have been tested on live children (none of whom were injured in the process) If you'd like to see a resource I haven't yet uploaded, please let me know as I probably have something useful tucked away (but bear with me, as I still work full time and we all know how many hours that means!)

A colourful and engaging resource to develop CVC recognition. A simple task-based activity, which allows children to draw a line (a skill in itself!) from picture to word. I laminate these and use whiteboard pens for individual and group work.

100 Happy Things - Summer Holidays

126 different ideas to keep children busy over the summer. The activities range from 'learn to juggle' to 'hide a note for someone you love' to 'write your name in the sand or mud' Children should choose up to 100 of their favourites (blanks supplied for them to write their own) and stick on a large piece of paper (title also supplied). They then have a list of boredom busters and, at the end of the holidays, a record of all the things they've done. Ideal end of term filler activity to keep them busy in a positive way!
