A large set of numeracy activities to support play in the Upper Primary.
These sheets are designed to go in wipe clean wallets such as SmartPals.
They have been created over several years to support most pages in the Heinemann SHM5 Numeracy textbook. Each sheet is open ended (meaning the children are never ‘finished’!) and allows children to practice the basic skills on each textbook page through play, investigation, collaboration and problem-solving.
Each sheet is organised into topic folders and each has the corresponding Heinemann page in the header at the top of the page.
I have found these to be an incredibly useful resource over the years at it allows one group to work completely independently while I focus on supporting another group.
I also have complete sets for the Heinemann 6 and 7 textbooks in my TES author shop.

A calendar to help classes share Christmas during the current restrictions. Each day a class would upload a video of an activity they chose to do.
The PowerPoint works by clicking each day and the page opens to the advent inside. Music, falling snow and shooting stars all automatically start when the PowerPoint opens.
A complete topic based on Spain. File contains a week-by-week planner along with all accompanying lessons, powerpoints, worksheets, videos and other resources.
Each week of the topic has a theme such as food, traditions etc.
Topic was designed for lower school (P2 and P3) but can be easily adapted to upper stages.
Upload of one single .zip is not allowed so I have included a screenshot of the folder organisation.
The PowerPoints are made in a font called ‘Appleboy’, a free one to install if you don’t already have it.

CfE Early, First and Second level ICT planners that tie in with the benchmarks. They provide potential learning outcomes and some direction of what you could teach in each section of ICT. Some of the wording is based on South Lanarkshire Council systems but could easily be adapted for any authority. These are only suggested outcomes for each year and are fairly ambitious at points (but possible!). They follow DCS progression but are listed as 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 etc. These are my own development and are not authority endorsed planners! Hopefully they can be of use. Some basic wording sourced from Dundee planners.
