A resource that teaches beat and rhythm.

This activity provides opportunities for exploring graphical notation. Although written recording of music is not a current requirement of the primary curriculum, recent school inspections in Wales have referred to the need for schools to explore the process.

This interactive activity provides opportunities for the exploration of structure in musical composition. It features a character called Dewi the Dragon. The activity teaches pupils how the order of sounds in a sequence may be changed to create different compositions. Pupils are asked to create their own sequences using instrument sounds they have selected and are then asked to perform these sequences. Pupils are able to use pictorial resources to help them sequence their musical ideas.

The teacher delivering these activities must familiarise him/herself with the Outdoor Learning Cards prior to undertaking the lessons in this unit. The lessons here are pitched at an average ability level, but there may be requirements to adapt the lesson to different classes. The differentiation and progression sections on the O.L.C’s will aid in this process.

This thinking skill based resource introduces pupils to a Welsh town suffering from a build up of rubbish.

This resource covers aspects of the Consumption and Waste, Natural Environment and Choices and Decisions themes in ESDGC.

This interactive activity aims to encourage pupils to learn number bonds to 10. They will play a pairs game using both numerals and picture prompts. They will then go on to develop problem-solving skills with simple word problems using number facts to 10.

This resource uses ACTIVStudio software and online activities and has 3 sections. The first covering general problem solving, and includes an online multichoice questionnaire where pupils can enter their name, and print off their scores. Multiplication and division is covered in the second section including learning tables with extension material looking at inverse operations. Finally, addition and subtraction looks at number bonds to 10 and 20.
