Telling the Time to 5 Minutes [Designed for Online]

(0)
This worksheet is designed to be used as a Google Doc so children can complete it online, however, it could also be printed and used that way instead. It’s made up of an example and 10 different clocks, for which the children have to tell the time as both numbers and words. Before the questions are several pointers which will help with telling the time properly. This question sheet works as a nice follow up to an initial lesson introducing time. It’s great for use in Google Classroom where every child gets their own copy. You can then easily check their individual progress live and then check their results.
A3 Board Game Template [Fully Editable]

A3 Board Game Template [Fully Editable]

(0)
This colourful A3 board game is fully editable. You can change the contents of any of any square on the board. There are so many ways you an adapt this for different lessons. Here are a few examples… a) Maths Write calculations in each box for the children to solve b) Reading Write tricky phonics words or as I have done with this other uploads on here, write word endings and beginnings. You could also have the children use the word in context in a sentence or explain its definition etc. c) Science Write questions relating to your topic in the box, or add in question spaces where children have to pick up a card with a question on. You could even get the class to create their own question cards. All you need for the game is a dice and between 2-5 players. Each of the ideas above follow the same style game play. That is, if you are able to solve the problems or read the words in the space you land on, then you are able to remain there. If not, then you go back to where you were before you rolled. You can also get creative and add in your own special spaces such as miss a go or roll again. Or you can get really creative and add in special reasons. For example, you helped a friend in need, move forward four spaces, or you fell off your bike and broke your head, miss a go. etc.

Word Warrior - Reading Board Game [CVCC & CCVC Words]

(0)
This fully editable board game adds fun for children who are learning to read. For this package, I’ve split it into two games. The first is a set of CVCC words and the second is a set of CCVC words. There are 21 spaces in which you can add any word you wish for children to practice reading. The board game is also A3 size so the words are easy to see. The idea is that 2-4 children take turns rolling the dice. If they are able to read the word that they land on then they can remain there, if not then they move back to where they just were before they rolled. This is one of my personal favourite resources, not just because both I and the children love it, but also because you can enter in any word set you like. I even play this with my son and it really encourages him to focus on pronouncing the words as perfectly as he possibly can.

Writing Limericks Examples and Worksheet

Writing Limericks Examples and Worksheet

(0)
This worksheet gives basic information about limericks - what is a limerick, how is it made, what patterns does it follow? Two examples are then provided. Here is one of them… There once was a girl called Jane, who thought she had a really big brain. She thought she was cool, standing in a puddle of drool, but really, she was just insane. The first task involves the children highlighting the rhyming words and counting the syllables for each line. Following this, the second task is for the children to create their own limerick. Ideas for sentence starters are provided. The final task is for the children to swap with their friends so they can read each other’s poems and give constructive feedback. It’s also great to have children share them with the whole class. They generally enjoy writing them, especially their silly nature and I love reading them! So long as they are not anything about cats, hats and rats… that gets a bit tiresome.

Stranded of a Deserted Island - What Three Things Would You Take?

(0)
This fun activity lets children explore that classic deserted island scenario. It presents pictures of 16 items from which the children have to choose three to take with them to be stranded with. They must explain verbally or in writing why they have chosen these items. The children could even suggest why other items would not be worth having. It’s worth encouraging the children to think of alternate uses for the items they have chosen too. This works both as an individual activity and as a group activity to promote effective communication between members.

Airport Role-play Conversations

(0)
This pack comprises of six short airport role-play conversations. We use it to add an element of drama and fun to our connected learning topic, Flying High.

Here are the titles for each of the role-plays to give you a better idea, but please see the preview for a glimpse of the content. a) The Pre-Flight Safety Demonstration b) The Crying Baby c) The Sick Passengers d) The Fast Take-Off e) The Rough Landing f) The Scared Passenger I hope your children enjoyed performing these as much as ours do! The document is fully editable so it’s possible for you or even the children to change them.

Bar Modeling - Mario Maths Blocks

Bar Modeling - Mario Maths Blocks

(0)
I designed this worksheet to review the basic methods of bar modeling and used blocks from the Super Mario games to add a little more interest for the children. The worksheet is split into four parts. Each has a question, a bar model and a space for the children to do their working and answer underneath. All the questions are also Mario related and use relatively simple and round numbers. The objective is to encourage children to use bar modeling so they can help visualise what is required in a word problem, ultimately to help them choose the correct operation and solve the problem. Here are the four parts and the required operations for each… a) Part-part whole (addition) b) Comparison (subtraction) c) Equal Parts of a whole (multiplication) d) Equal Parts of a whole (division) It’s worth following up each model with children drawing their own for another example question. Please note that this worksheet is a fully editable document, so you can change any of the questions. And with some basic table editing skills, you can change the bar models by copying and pasting the different blocks where you need them.
New Year's Resolutions Worksheet

New Year's Resolutions Worksheet

(0)
This worksheet allows children to write down an idea and action plan for a New Year’s resolution. I do this with my children each year but encourage them to only choose one resolution, which is relevant and challenging, but not too much so. Once they have decided, they then write a detailed action plan for how to see it through. We then revisit what they wrote at a later date to check on their progress. Part A) What is your New Year’s Resolution? Example sentence starters: This year, I really want to… I want to be better at… I want to learn how to… Part B) What is your action plan? What steps will you do to make sure your resolution is successful?
States of Matter Worksheet
SherwenSherwen

States of Matter Worksheet

(0)
This worksheet is comprised of a table for children to fill in information about the three states of matter - solids, liquids and gases. The first row is for the names of each. The second row has a beaker outline for children to draw the arrangement of atoms or molecules for that particular state of matter. The third row is to describe in writing the basic properties of each state of matter and the final row is for examples of each. I use this worksheet in class to reinforce information about the states of matter. The diagrams are usually copied from the board or at least a diagram from the internet. For the rest of the content, I see how much the children can fill in independently before presenting the full set of information needed to complete the worksheet. Using the children as actual atoms is a fun addition to help explain the properties of each state of matter. For example, a group of children can stand in an orderly grid, shaking (vibrating) on the spot. Another child can act as a heat source and when they get near, the atoms start to vibrate faster before breaking off and then moving around, but only within the carpeted area. This can then continue through to gases and then reversed. It’s also a great way to introduce the names for the changes in state, which could also be added onto the worksheet with arrows showing the direction of change for evaporation, condensation, freezing and melting.
Timestables Dice Game [Fully Editable]

Timestables Dice Game [Fully Editable]

(0)
This game will help children review and improve their calculation of the timestables for numbers 1-6. Between 2-4 players works fine. Each group will need two dice and each player needs a different colour to shade their result on the grid. Instructions: Choose a different coloured pencil each and select who will start. The first player rolls the dice, multiplies the numbers together and shades the result. Rotate turns clockwise until a player has three in a row! The children really enjoy this game but sometimes get so carried away with blocking a friend that they miss opportunities to setup a win! Great game to get them thinking outside the box, inside the box. *The document is fully editable so you can change numbers or instructions as you please. If you have dice with more sides or number spinners etc. then you can move into higher multiples and change the numbers to suit. *

Estimating and Measuring Mass Using Digital Scales

(0)
This worksheet is for children to record their estimates and actual masses of different classroom objects in grams. It comprises a table with three columns - the object name, the estimated ass (g) and the actual mass (g). To help them with their estimation I provide a set of masses for each child or group so that they can compare the objects to known quantities. Once they have estimated several objects they can then find the actual mass using a set of digital scales. The worksheet is fully editable so you can change it as you please. It could be easily adapted for mechanical scales.

This worksheet comprises a table of the seven nutrients with columns for their uses and example sources. Each section of the table has blanks for the children to fill in. The words for the blanks are provided in the table at the beginning. Each nutrient also has a few missing letters to fill in.

There are also posters with information on the classroom walls which they can refer to if they need. The document is fully editable so you can differentiate or make any other changes where you please.
Record Sheet for Recording the Sugar Content of Different Drinks

Record Sheet for Recording the Sugar Content of Different Drinks

(0)
This sheet is by the children to estimate and then record the content of various drinks after researching or provided with the data. The build-up for this process leads to those classic displays showing each drink container with the bag of sugar underneath to demonstrate the sheer amount in a drink or the lack of. The project is great because it covers all sorts of maths, health and science curriculum objectives and ultimately (hopefully) makes children reconsider what they drink or at least how much they drink of it. *The document contains two tables on each A4 page for saving paper. It is also fully editable so you can change headings, drink names etc. *
Speaking Portuguese Basic Conversation Sheet

Speaking Portuguese Basic Conversation Sheet

(0)
I used this when I was teaching all about Brazil in a standalone topic. We thought it would be good for the children to get a basic grasp of the main language, Portuguese. For that I created three conversational scripts between different numbers of people. The phrases are very basic. I originally made up the conversations to go with a video about basic Portuguese Phrases from Youtube. It worked great at the time but I haven’t taught the topic again, as we rotate countries of study each year. I hope you can get some use out of it! *The document is fully editable so you can change things as you please. *
