A Linear Calendar is the answer to improving numbers sense in your classroom in just a couple of minutes every day. This resource has everything you need to set up the calendar and then use it year after year (my favourite thing to do!) I have included 33 different event cards, all dates, days of the week and months of year. I have included both a colour and a black and white version within this pack depending on your printing preference. Plus some helpful tips and discussion points to support you and your students in class.

Start the year right with the back to school certificates. 30 different designs, in both A4 and A5 options, mean each student can receive a different certificate, with just one press of the ‘print’ button! Designs are suitable for EYFS - KS2.

This set of 5 phonics mats covers all phonemes as set out in the ’Sound-Write Phonics’ programme. I am in no way affiliated with this programme, however I do use it in my class to teach phonics ( I can recommend it whole-heartedly, if you are in the market for a new phonics scheme!) I use this resource daily in the form of a phonics mat, as a teaching support at desks (students have a copy in of their own to refer too). We also have printed them out for display as a memory prompt for spelling. I hope you find them as useful as we have.

Who doesn’t need a little boost of motivation every now and then? This pack of 100 mini awards will do just that, keeping your students eager to learn and engaged. 100 different designs means that you can print once and have enough to last you the whole of the school year! Printed with 8 awards to a page.

If you’re using the ‘Sounds-Write’ phonics programme (like me) then you know its tricky to get games which follow the order of the phonemes taught. Well not anymore! This game pack is fantastic for consolidating phonic knowledge and strengthening blending skills. It can be played by by one or two students independently; or it can be used for group work. Not only does it really work, but you need a teeny amount of prep, just print the game boards and go! My school have adopted these games for the whole of KS1, with the best results we’ve ever had on this year’s phonics screening test. I have included games for all of the first 10 units in the ‘extended code’. That means the following phonemes are included: Unit 1 - ai, ay, ea, a_e Unit 2 - e, ea, ee, y Unit 3 - ea (one spelling, two sounds) Unit 4 - o, oa, ow, oe, o_e Unit 5 -o (one spelling, two sounds) Unit 6 - er, ir, or, ur Unit 7 - e, ea, ai Unit 8 - ou, ow Unit 9 - ow (one spelling, two sounds) Unit 10 - oo, ew, ue, u_e, o Each game includes a colour version and a black and white version for your printing preferences. Units with new phonemes include a game version with the new (focus) phoneme highlighted ( I find this useful for students who struggle with fluency), and a none highlighted version, for more fluent readers.

This powerful lesson is based on the picture book ‘A Wrinkled Heart’ by Tracey Hoexter. In the text we follow Elliott who discovers each time someone is unkind to him his heart becomes more wrinkled. The book goes on to teach the impact of words and the importance of apologising. This lesson plan includes all you need to teach this lovely lesson on kindness. Perfect to illustrate and set class expectations for the year ahead to students.

10 Sounds Write Spelling Games - over 140 pages Spelling is all about practise, practise, practise! But let’s be honest, it can get tedious really quickly. That’s where these print and play games come in. I have created 10 different printable games. That over 140 pages! Each is organised into Sounds-Write units to cover the high frequency words in the Sounds-Write phonics programme. All of them need minimal prep and equipment, mostly a paperclip or dice and a coloured pencil. For ease of printing I’ve grouped each game into a separate pdf. I use these games for homework, and group work, as it’s so easy to differentiate them. I hope you find them as useful as I do. Please be aware that the spelling words in these games follow the HFW in the Sounds Write programme which are: is, a, the, I, for, of, are, was, all, come, some, to, there, their, these, what, where and who.

Looking for sentence building games with words which all match your students phonic ability? Well here it is! These games allow children to strengthen both their blending skills and their sentence building skills in one game. Each game can be played independently, or in pairs. The games come in two sets (with all initial code phonemes in each- see below), to allow for even more differentiation. Both sets of games have a sentence building component, set 1 asks students to draw their sentence after building to improve short term memory length, and show comprehension. Whilst Set 2 asks students to record their completed sentence to improve long term memory. Phonemes included in this resource: a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q,r,s,t,u,v,w,x,y,z,ff,ll,ss,zz, sh, ch, tch, th, ck, wh, qu, ng Word types included in this resource: cvc, vcc, cvcc, ccvc, ccvcc, cccvc
