I have used the reading log sheet for different class reading books. At the end of the book, the reading log requires children to design a new front cover, (with blurb) and to review the book. I use the two review sheets printed on two sides of a piece of paper so that the children can have their cover design and review together.

I have used this activity with a class who have been working on measurement of mass. There are two sheets, one with pictures and measurements in grams and a blank chart which you could adapt for your own class. The children try to match the product with the correct weight. The measurement leads to some interesting discussions about the weight of packaging. Children enjoy making comparisons between the different packages, weighing them in their hands.

This idea is based on Desert Island Discs. The children can choose 5 books to read whilst stranded on a desert island. They need to justify their choices. You could adapt the worksheet to change the number of books if you want to broaden the childrens' choice.

This idea comes from a book called 'The Art of Papercrafts' which I have had for many years. The sleighs can be a little fiddly to stick together, but they look great once they are finished. I fill them with tissue paper and some Christmas sweets for the children to take home at the end of term.

This is a multiple choice test covering exploration from St Brendan to Captain Cook.

These two worksheets provide an introduction to the rules for turning singular nouns into plurals with some simple exercises to practise. The class can then reinforce their learning with more follow-up activities.

When making clay thumb pots, the children can design their pot on this sheet. They can create a pattern for the outside of the pot and an image to go inside. The pot templates can be adapted so that the children design Greek or Roman pots, or create special decorative pots for Mothers or Fathers day.

Using the grid, children can create an enlargement of the small picture of a snowman. They should be encouraged to work on each square, not to look at the whole picture. I usually do this in the run up to Christmas.

This is a picture crossword based on nouns associated with a traditional Christmas. I have used it with ESL students, but I have also used it with other classes. The answers are given on the second sheet. The missing words could be provided on the whiteboard for the children.

This activity combines movement and music in a very creative way. Children always enjoy playing instruments and can be very imaginative in the way they interpret sounds in movement.

Just a simple worksheet for mental subtraction.

This is a simple cut and stick activity for younger children to match the names of the senses with the correct parts of the body.

I photocopy these sheets back to back, mount them on card and laminate them. I cannot take credit for the idea, but I have used them often over the years. It is a great way to encourage children to reflect upon their work and to help their friends to improve their writing. The idea can be used for any type of creative writing activity.
