Maths working walls are an essential in a primary classroom. Here are the headings needed to create a cute working wall within a calming classroom.
Included:
-Natural hessian look bunting which says maths working wall
-headings which say: we are learning to, vocabulary, examples of work, top tips for excellent work, WAGOLL, challenge and questions.
-Numbers 0-20: one number per card. Each card has the number in digits, a ten frame and the written word.
The bunting lettering is in bold capital letters and says maths working wall. Also included is a bunting flag with an apple and another with a sweet little chalk board.
The headings have a large space to write under them. I laminate these and then use a white board marker to write and wipe as needed throughout the topic. I reuse them again and again. So once the board is set up it’s very easy to change and add to as often as required.
I have this same display but in bright stripes if you’re after something more colourful.

These clip cards are a great way for students to practice their knowledge of deciduous and coniferous trees using a multiple choice system. 32 cards are included which cover a wide range of trees and their parts using bold images. Each card has two possible answers. Students select the correct answer by clipping a clothespin, peg or paper clip to it.
I like to laminate these cards so students can simply circle the correct answer using a dry erase marker. Alternatively, you can print these on paper to hand out to your class at the end of the lesson; pupils circle the correct answer and hand in as a great exit ticket or plenary to the lesson.

These clip cards are a great way for students to practice their understanding of mass (heavier and lighter) using images of a balance scale. Pupils use a multiple choice system to answer which item is heavier or lighter. 32 cards are included which include various visual representations. Each card has two possible answers. Students select the correct answer by clipping a clothespin, peg or paper clip to it.
I like to laminate these cards so students can simply circle the correct answer using a dry erase marker. Alternatively, you can print these on paper to hand out to your class at the end of the lesson; pupils circle the correct answer and hand in as a great exit ticket or plenary to the lesson.

Here are over 60 clip cards for initial sounds. This is a great phonics activity for early years or for some key stage 1 pupils. It encourages children to hear the initial sound in a CVC word. Once the initial sound is established children can then blend and read the word. This is great in a tough spot for continuous provision or as a table top activity. I like to laminate these as they can be used with clips or with dry erase felt tips.
