The Snail And The Whale is one of Britain's best selling children picture books. The images in this book come from public domain resources - not from the original book. I was amazed that there were so few teaching resources for this book and so I have written 16 Guided Reading Thinking Hat worksheets for the book. I would love to have some feedback from anyone who has used them in the classroom.

FREE Room On The Broom Workbook - 16 Thinking Hat Worksheets for creative learning

(28)
This resource has been seen over 10,000 times and is one of my most popular teaching resources. The images are not from the book, and you will still need to use the book to complete the reading tasks. I was surprised at how few reading resources were available for Room on the broom, and I am keen to promote Thinking Hat Reading skills in the classroom and so I have spent a week developing a set of worksheets which teachers can download and use in the classroom. Please leave a comment after using them in the classroom.
Qatar History and Citizenship Teaching Resources (Year 1 to Year 6) - Planning and Worksheets

Qatar History and Citizenship Teaching Resources (Year 1 to Year 6) - Planning and Worksheets

(3)
Qatar History and Citizenship is a compulsory subject for any primary school teacher in Qatar. When I taught this subject in Qatar, I was surprised to discover how thin the student text book was, how little resources were available for students on the Internet and that there was no teacher guide to help teachers effectively teach this subject. Each of these Yearly teaching packs contain lesson plans and additional worksheets to support 39 weekly lessons. These lessons cover all a student needs to know about the subject, and the lessons are designed to motivate and excite a student's interest in the history around them. These worksheets could be printed out and used as workbooks in the classroom, sent home as additional homework or shared via an interactive whiteboard. *** Please note that these resources are designed to be used with the official text book, not as a replacement. ***

Phonics Screen Revision - 4 documents in one simple PowerPoint!

(2)
Getting ready for the summer Phonics test? Here are two Phonics revision tests from previous years. I have converted 4 documents into a simple to use PowerPoint. It starts off with practice words. These include both real and made up words. These help students to revise how to say the words and to prepare them for the test. This is followed by the practice test. There are 2 levels, a simple level and a trickier level, In each case there are real and made-up words. This is followed by recommendations on how to say each word. This is followed by the marking sheet. These PowerPoints are fun, colourful and an easy way to practice the words either with a whole class or one by one with the students. It is also an excellent way for parents to practice with their children at home. Make phonics testing fun... try this set of PowerPoints today!
 Talk a Lot ESL  Foundation Course is show you how to speak English  like a Native Speaker.

Talk a Lot ESL Foundation Course is show you how to speak English like a Native Speaker.

(2)
Talk a Lot Foundation Course is for anybody who needs to better understand how to speak English like a Native Speaker. It will be especially useful for anybody who is studying with – or about to study with – Talk a Lot materials (i.e. Elementary Books 1-3 (https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/36-week-spoken-english-course-30-different-english-topics-covered-11157496) or Intermediate Book 1). The theory studied on this course will enable learners to get a lot more out of any Talk a Lot materials. The course is suitable for learners from Pre-Intermediate level (CEF B1) to Advanced (CEF C1) – and beyond. It can also be adapted for lower-level learners. It goes without saying that zero beginner learners will benefit from learning about word stress and weak forms as they take their first steps with vocabulary and sentence-building in English. The focus of this course is pronunciation – how we speak. The message of the entire course can be summed up in two words: stress and reduce – learners can improve their pronunciation by stressing the content words in a sentence and reducing the function words – then connecting the syllables together. The aim of the course is to teach learners how to do this. Learners will also develop their listening skills as they discover the techniques that English native speakers routinely use when speaking quickly. This is not a book to be picked up and read from beginning to end, but rather a collection of practical materials that need to be studied within the context of a course – guided by a teacher. This is not really a self-study book, although I’m sure learners could learn a lot from reading it on their own, and listening to the audio files (see below). The course is made up of four lessons of theory – Introduction and Basic Principles; Spelling and Sounds; Stress; and Connected Speech. There is also a fifth lesson with practical exercises, which can be repeated as often as you like – or have time for. This book contains the course material for each lesson, which may be given to learners on the course, and which the teacher can use to plan and facilitate the lessons. The materials in this course are fairly flexible. Each lesson has an outline of the main points, which are described in more detail in boxes, and then followed by examples and practical activities. You don’t have to follow this course as it is written word by word, doing every activity – although you could. You may decide to use the text as an outline, adding extra activities and examples that are more relevant for your learners, and taking away things that they don’t need. The timing of each lesson can vary – it will depend on the level of your learners, and how much time there is available. I would recommend a classroom session of at least 90 minutes for covering one of the theory lessons.

The Importance of Free Christmas Posters in the Classroom The festive season brings with it a unique opportunity to foster a joyful and inclusive atmosphere in the classroom. Free Christmas posters serve as a valuable resource for educators, enhancing the learning environment in several significant ways. First and foremost, these posters create a visually stimulating space that captures students’ attention and ignites their enthusiasm. Bright, colorful designs featuring holiday themes can transform an ordinary classroom into a warm, inviting environment that reflects the spirit of the season. This change in decor can inspire creativity and encourage students to engage more actively in their learning. Moreover, Christmas posters can serve as educational tools. They can introduce students to various cultural traditions associated with the holiday, promoting awareness and appreciation for diversity. By displaying posters that highlight different customs and celebrations around the world, educators can foster discussions about multiculturalism and inclusivity. This is particularly important in today’s diverse classrooms, where understanding and respecting differences is crucial for social harmony. In addition, free Christmas posters can be used to reinforce key academic concepts. For example, math posters featuring holiday-themed problems can make learning more enjoyable and relatable. Language arts posters with festive quotes or vocabulary words can enhance literacy skills while keeping students motivated. Integrating holiday themes into lessons not only makes learning fun but also helps to create memorable educational experiences. Lastly, the act of decorating a classroom with Christmas posters can promote a sense of community and belonging among students. When they see their classroom adorned with festive imagery, it can evoke feelings of excitement and anticipation for the holidays, fostering a positive classroom culture. In conclusion, utilizing free Christmas posters in the classroom is an effective way to enhance the learning environment, celebrate diversity, and engage students in meaningful and enjoyable ways. By embracing the festive spirit, educators can create a memorable experience that resonates with students long after the holiday season has passed.
