I am passionate about learning that is tailored to children's interests and gives lots of opportunity for children to be creative and critical thinkers. I think it's important that learning materials cater to a variety of learning styles and I try to make my resources have real-world applications whenever possible. These resources will not only engage your learners, but they'll save you time, so that you can focus on doing what you do best.

This fun, hands-on Christmas craft pack ticks a lot of boxes. Your students will love making seven Christmas crafts, which could be turned into ornaments, and there’s an option to cover geometry maths skills at the same time.
The seven crafts include a Christmas tree (cone), present (cube), bauble (sphere), milk and biscuits (cylinders), Santa hat (pyramid), and gingerbread house (rectangular prism and triangular prism).
To turn the crafts into ornaments add string or ribbon, or use the paper handles included on each page.
To integrate this activity with maths, use the properties of 3D shapes for younger students, and the nets with measurements and recording sheets for finding the surface area of the nets. The net measurements are based on the actual sizes rounded to the nearest inch or cm and range in size from 2-6 inches/4-8cm.
