Thanks for stopping by my shop. I am an experienced chartered primary teacher who has taught predominantly in Scotland. I also taught in England, Australia and in the Middle East. I produce a range of quality resources that provide depth and breadth. These resources should enhance the learning experience of pupils. There are many opportunities for active learning as well as structured tasks that consolidate and reinforce knowledge and application. Enjoy!

These resources deal with both seasons: Autumn and Winter.
The engaging, colourful PowerPoint presentation introduces each season clearly with opportunities to gain knowledge, reflect and complete a variety of accompanying tasks. There are also online links provided to consolidate and enhance the learning and appreciation of our natural world.
I have provided worksheets ( Microsoft Word) that are linked to each task.
The tasks include:
design an autumn outfit
use ‘autumn’ colours to shade a variety of leaves
label a bear
classify animals that migrate/adapt/hibernate
label winter animals
enjoy an autumn poem and answer questions ( oral or written response)
listen to a wonderful winter story and reflect on characters and actions
follow an online tutorial to draw a winter tree ( easy version)
the last slide provides online links to videos which will further enhance the children’s knowledge of seasonal changes. These can be used as a starter /plenary or a teacher may choose to show segments of the videos.
