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!

This gorgeous number of the week display can be used interactively. The purpose of this display is to encourage children to use deeper thinking skills about numbers to 10. Children can count the number of objects needed to make the number of the week. Discussions can also be encouraged using the questions provided. A great maths support to enhance a classroom which is focused on higher level thinking. The packs include all numerals to 10, the illustrative images, the lettering, the arrows and the questions.
Here we have a gorgeous Phase 2 phonics display package, includes all phase 2 sound/picture cards, the first sounds lettering and the upper and lower case classroom train with letters from A -Z.
All the phase 2 sound picture cards are interactive so the sounds can be added whilst working in groups with the children.
A gorgeous display to enhance a learning environment focusing on letter sounds.
These child-friendly posters have been designed to give children a visual understanding of social distancing/physical distancing during these difficult times with the Coronavirus struggles. Many children will be going back to school soon, where this will be much harder to do. We have prepared these posters to help adults to give children a better understanding of this in a more child centred way.
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.
We have created a bundle of resources to support you when teaching about Earth Day. These are all FREE to download and cover different areas of the curriculum. These activities cover recycling, the carbon footprint we leave, the layers of the earth, creating a planet saving house and an outdoor scavenger hunt activity to really make learning exciting and interesting. Helping children to learn about the earth in a child friendly way.
These are great cards which can be printed and laminated, to help children when struggling with the spellings of certain words. Having these tricky words around for children to refer to when writing whenever they need them, can really help with reading and spelling.
We have included a selection of Christmas activities to support children in KS1 in this pack, covering a range of subjects. Other Christmas packs are available to download here and on the website applefortheteacher.co.uk for FREE.
