This is a resource that I created just for fun to have on hand in those awkward moments when you have some time with a class or form that you did not expect to have. It's entirely for fun but I know it will cause arguments and discussions as, quite simply, you will not be able to believe what you see. Any and all feedback is gratefully received, whether positive or developmental.

This is the classic "Lost at Sea," exercise where students are presented with 15 items that they should rank in order of importance on their life raft having been "Lost at Sea." It comes with a power point presentation that details the task, gives tips on completion and shows the correct answers. Also it has a written sheet with the directions on for the students on, an answer sheet for them to complete and an answer sheet for the teacher with rationale for each ranking. It is entirely up to you how you run the exercise but, for me, the most important part is how the students come to a decision and end up agreeing as opposed to getting the correct answers. I have done this and the post-mortem discussion is always the most valuable and where one sees the best responses from students.

This is is a powerpoint that highlights some of the interesting, unusual and factual moments of 2016. We start in January and move through to December with 10 questions for each month on a variety of topics. Questions are a variety of multiple choice, true or false, match ups and ordinary questions. Most slides have additional, contextual information to add interest when the answer is revealed. Any and all feedback is greatly received, no matter whether it is positive or developmental. Happy New Year.

Powerpoint with groups of ten true or false questions in seven rounds: Football teams. Are the names provided the real names of world football teams? Butterflies. Are these the names of real British butterflies? Countries. Are the names provided the real names of countries? Yellow. Are the words provided real synonyms for the colour yellow? 999. Are the statements provided real requests for the emergency services? Taylor Swift. Facts about Taylor which may or may not be true. Video Games. Are the titles provided the real titles of past video games? A bit random I know, but I didn't do this to fulfill some Ofsted criteria, I did it because I thought it may interest and enthuse students. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated, positive or developmental. Thanks

Power point guides students through reviewing the previous year. Students complete 1 of 3 worksheets that asks different questions about the past year (example: Who were your best friends? What could you have done better?) Because there are 3 different sheets, students won't simply copy their neighbour's information. Following that activity, students move on to looking forward to 2017 and creating resolutions in four fields: School, Home, Health and Happiness. They are requested to come up with specific steps to enable them to better achieve their resolutions. There is a sheet for them to complete accordingly. Finally, we try and emulate this process but with school targets. It would be ideal if these were available but, if not, it could be set as a homework or an extension task to complete. Again, there is a sheet for students to complete if required. The idea for this was to review the resolutions at regular periods but it would also be nice to keep them all in a folder to get out at this time next year, becoming an ongoing activity and a nice keepsake for students. Many thanks. Any feedback, good or bad is gratefully received.

Each sheet has part of a comic story printed on it and prompts to complete encouraging them to to think of one characters point of view or to provide ideas as to how the story got to that point. Because they are all so different you can pick one for specific children depending on their interests or the areas that you wish them to develop. They are ideal to use as either a starter or as an extension task both of which could be developed into the creation of a creative story. Any and all feedback is gratefully received whether positive or developmental. Download as word doc. or PDF at your convenience. Any q's, please ask.

The first lesson is on the components of fitness, it is a power-point that goes through each element and has an accompanying worksheet for those who are less able. The last task is to rank the components in order of importance for different sports, the worksheet has two different pages for this task so that students using the sheets will have different sports to discuss, eliminating copying and promoting discussion. The second lesson is on skill-related factors of fitness, again it is a power-point and has an accompanying worksheet for the less able. Any and all feedback is gratefully received, positive or developmental. This resource was created for the AQA spec but can easily be adapted should you require.

This is an updated lesson which was previously available for free and was downloaded over 1000 times in Great Britain and the US combined.

Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated whether positive or developmental. Any questions, please ask.

If you've seen 'Only Connect' on BBC 2 then you're probably a geek. Welcome to my world! This quiz is entirely based on that premise with four separate rounds of 10 questions. Round 1 is the missing vowels round where students have to work out the different flavours of crisps from the consonants that remain. Round 2 is Connections. What is the link between four different images/photographs. Round 3 is missing vowels again but instead of crisp flavours it's Pokemon names. Round 4 is Sequences. This time there are 3 images or pieces of information, students have to work out what the fourth could be. Each slide comes with a full answer to assist in understanding, whether this is on the screen or in the notes. I'd suggest that students do this in groups as it can be quite challenging but it has been deliberately aimed at secondary students with popular culture references as well as more educational references. This is designed not to test knowledge but to test critical thinking skills. Any feedback, positive or developmental, greatly appreciated.
