We sell unique, child friendly teaching resources to give children back their love of learning. Education has become very test driven, with many resources in a 'test format' . This can become very uninspiring for learners and be a cause for lack of motivation and enthusiasm. At Applefortheteacher, we create teaching resources to give children the skills they need academically, socially and emotionally, whilst encouraging that important 'love of learning'. Inspiring learners to thrive!

These stunning posters have been designed to help children with their understanding of the different needs of different animals in relation to where they live.

To celebrate Roald Dahl day, we want to give something to teachers and educators, who are preparing activities to mark the great achievements from the story telling genius. We have designed 16 fantastic activities, based around familiar stories. Some activities are suitable for EYFS/SEN and KS1 children, others are suitable for children in KS2. There are a range of exciting science experiments for a selection of characters from familiar stories, there is a crossword, a wordsearch and some revolting rhyme ideas. We have even included matching cards which can be played where two of the same need to be matched for younger learners, but then we have designed a higher level matching cards game, which takes a little more thinking about, matching 2 objects that relate to particular stories written by Roald Dahl. Some of these activities have been created to really test your knowledge of Roald Dahl stories.
We hope you enjoy a little gift from us to you.
Happy Roald Dahl Day :-)
We love this activity, teaching alliteration in a fun way, first watch the fun alliteration powerpoint presentation which explains how to create alliterative sentences with Izzy and Ian. Then complete an activity independently. Izzy and Ian need some help to create their exciting, often not traditional ice cream flavours. But the catch is every flavour has to feature alliteration. Follow the steps to create a creative menu to give a flavour to suit every taste. Putting the love in learning one download at a time.
These are great activities to help children to build the key points to their story. Roll the dice to work out what their story is going to be about, then let creativity begin. One ‘design a story’ activity has a Superhero them to help with superhero story writing, then other has a range of different characters. These provide a great support to children to help them with ideas, they also support children in keeping focused on the direction of their writing.
This is a truly gorgeous powerpoint presentation to support children in their sounding out and blending as part of the Phase 2 Letters and Sounds. Benji Book the dog send letters into his dog bowls for the children to sound out and blend. They have a go at reading the words, then Benji Boo will make an image appear for children to check if they were right. A great way teaching tool to support children and their learning of early phonics CVC words. Applefortheteacher.co.uk putting the love in learning…
This is another of our ‘different takes on traditional stories’. We have designed a story based on ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ but our story takes a different twist and it is called ‘Little Boy Blue Boots’. The story is very visual and has been designed in the form of a powerpoint presentation. Children can observe and become involved in the story during the powerpoint presentation. There are then a selection of comprehension activities available to allow children to work at their own level. We have 3 different levels of comprehension which are included with this and a story sequencing activity. This is a great comprehension activity for children in KS1. Other story comprehensions and presentations like this one are available to download separately from TES or from our website Applefortheteacher.co.uk.
