A Zones of Regulation display which can be used for a whole school display in hall or corridor or classroom display. Is differentiated with wording and images to suit all ages. The display covers emotions felt in each zone, images to illustrate these images and a toolbox of strategies which the children can use to help them when in each zone. I am a SENDCO and an inclusion coordinator of a Trust and have used this display to introduce the Zones of Regulation to entire schools. It has worked really well with all children aged 4-11. Included in this pack: Display title of ‘What Zone are you in?’ 4x coloured zone titles 4x road signs linking to each zone 4x posters for each zone which includes emotions felt in each zone and images 4x toolbox for each zone This took me 6 hours to make so I’m hoping that by sharing it on here, it can save you the time :)

This resource is a 16-page booklet which includes sections on: Market research Target audience Idea generation (flavours, textures shape, colours) Brand design (product name, logo, slogan, USP) Product packaging design Photos of product Evaluation with prompt questions During this project, children will be designing their own chocolate product from start to finish. After carrying out market research, they will choose their target audience. They will then generate many ideas before finalising a brand name, logo, slogan, product and USP (unique selling point.) With this in mind, they will then create a final design for their product’s packaging. Once the product has been created (and tasted!) they will complete an evaluation of it. Every class I have completed this project with have absolutely loved it and always talk about it for many years following! National Curriculum D&T links: Design use research and develop design criteria to inform the design of innovative, functional, appealing products that are fit for purpose, aimed at particular individuals or groups generate, develop, model and communicate their ideas through discussion, annotated sketches, cross-sectional and exploded diagrams, prototypes, pattern pieces and computer-aided design Make select from and use a wider range of materials and components, including construction materials, textiles and ingredients, according to their functional properties and aesthetic qualities Evaluate investigate and analyse a range of existing products evaluate their ideas and products against their own design criteria and consider the views of others to improve their work I completed this project whilst also teaching about the Mayans in geography/history.

A fantastic and engaging game that my class love. Simply give each child a card and get them to walk around the classroom. When they meet another child, they should high five them and say, “Quiz, quiz, trade.” Each child then asks the other child their question, when they both give the correct answers, they can trade cards and then continue to move around until they meet somebody else. If a child gets the answer one, a child can help support them by prompting/giving clues as they have the correct answer on their card. My class absolutely love this game and don’t realise just how much they’re learning when they play it!

My class absolutely loved making this! After learning about Henry VIII and his six wives during our Tudors topic, the children created an ‘information circle’ for each wive which can then be folded and stuck back to back to create an information text brilliant for wall displays! My PDF file here includes an image of my completed one and then the templates of the 7 circles needed and Henry VIII’s upper body. Enjoy! :)
