This resource has been made to allow children the freedom to chose which task they would like to complete every morning. The word mat can be printed back to back and laminated. There are two slightly different styled mats depending on if you would like to concentrate on one common exception word for the day or have a display of words in your classroom. The power point can also be adapted to suit the needs of your class. Thank you for downloading and if you find the time please leave a review.

Here is the story map that i did in my second week following the story The Three Little Pigs. I changed the characters in the story then i showed them a story map.

There are multiple ways to play this game. When you land on a word you can use words or a picture to describe what it means. If you are unsure see if you can search the meaning of the word using an iPad or laptop. To make it more fun see if you can research the word in less than one minute or see if another player can research the word faster than you can. OR When you land on a word read the word and if you think it is a strength you have write it on the person, if you don’t thing it’s your strength write it on the cross. If you think this might be another person’s strength share the idea with them. OR Make your way around the board and write down each word you land on. When you get to the end look at your list and see if you can pick a word and say how you can use it at some point in the week. E.G Organised- I will make sure I remember to bring my pencil case to every lesson. Thank you for taking the time to download if you find the time please leave a review.

Here is a resource i have made for my class to recap place value style questions in maths. There is a total of 15 days worth. I display this on the board as a morning starter and then go through the answers with the children on the Interactive White board before starting my lesson. Three days are fact families showing the 8 related facts. Please note before buying these use the smart notebook Interactive White board programme to work.

This resource can be used in multiple ways. The place value activity allows children to work practically with dienes to draw and recognise place value. It will also allow children to recognise the given place value in a number- for example just highlighting the hundreds, tens or ones. The numbers as words resource also covers odd and even numbers and allows children to match the numbers to each word. The word mats/ charts and card can be laminated and placed into a tuff spot tray or organised as a class group as part of a hide and seek activity.

Here are a range of worksheets with teacher input support to help teach fractions. I used these with my split year 1 and 2 class.

Last year I decided to colour number cards so they were easier for myself and the children to sort as they were carrying out tasks. The yellow cards are 1-20, Blue cards are 21-50 and red cards are 51-100. I laminated 5 sets of these and they worked wonders in my classroom. I have also attached a place value lesson with the teacher input. I would move all the dienes into the bin afterwards so the children would ignore these ones on the screen. Hope this saves some time. Many thanks for buying.
