Has that pile of books been sitting on your desk for over a week? Why not print out some stickers and get sticking! I use a range of stickers to encourage student feedback. It’s an excellent way to save some time but also encourage a dialogue. Credit to A. Wilkes for inspiration. You will require various label size papers but there are some standard envelope ones. Sticker sizes include: standard address label, 25x25, 64x64 and others. Comments are appreciated. This paper can be purchased online and put into any printer. Comments are appreciated.

In this lesson students explore some of the big issues that affect our world today. Students are encouraging to think about what wealthy countries can do to support and tackle these issues such as: child soldiers, modern slavery and torture. After exploring some of the issues students are encouraged to design a campaign in order to raise awareness. I have attached some example work in a photograph here. Great for the end of term or form time! Pictures acquired through a search engine filtered to "labelled for re-use". Enjoy!

These are quizzes that I use with my form each week. I tend to keep a score of the teams points each week and award a winner at the end of each half term. I will hope to upload a new pack of quizzes regularly. The topics are wide-ranging as often I ask the students for a focus for the week. The answers are provided on a separate sheet. Print, distribute and mark. Easy! Please comment :-) Images are acquired through a search engine filtered to "labelled for reuse".

This Tarsia puzzle covers the theme of My Identity. It was designed for KS3 students but could be used to support older or younger if supported. My Identity is a initiative launched in the UAE to increase the awareness of local customs and traditions. A Tarsia puzzle requires students to match up sides of triangles to form a hexagonal shape. They are brilliant for revision and get students to think hard. I use these at the starts of ends of lessons and they can take 10-20 minutes depending on your class’s confidence in the material. All materials are provided here including student instructions, student puzzle pieces and teacher answers. All images have been acquired through a search engine filtered to labelled for re-use.

This resource was planned for a 1 hour and 30 minute session during an Activity Week during the Summer Term. The theme was based around "Finding God in all things" but the resource could easily be adapted for a secular purpose. During the session, students research a historical figure or event and research who, what, why, when, how. The students are then tasked with creating a video about their research on ipads (if available in your school) or on their smart phones. There's plenty to do here and a lesson plan for the teacher. Great for independent learning and would easily work for an introductory lesson during taster days or introductory weeks. Use the comment feature below to ask questions.

It’s always nice to give your students something Christmassy to work towards as it gets closer. I’ve updated this resource due to it’s popularity. This 10 page booklet can be printed in colour or black and white. Students can work through the different activities suggested in one go or once a week. I’ve used these resources with different ages but it would work best for lower secondary or primary school. The resources tell the Christmas story, look into traditions today and explore how Christmas was celebrated in the Tudor and Medieval period. The additional Powerpoint may also be used for other activities. Comments are appreciated. Images acquired through a search engine filtered to labelled for reuse.

I think reading is very important for every single student. In my history classroom I like to show my students that they can read about the periods they study too. Please note the publisher document has several pages. Comments are appreciated.

These quotes sit right above my board printed on coloured paper. May get some of those students thinking as they watch you teach.
