Are you teaching about counting to 10? Here is a great teaching tool, linked into fireworks, bonfire night and Guy Fawkes events. Students can count the numbers in order or solve the mixed up number slides. You could look at it directly as a presentation and discuss the different materials being shown in each of the photos. You could print off and laminate the photos to make an interesting, eye-catching display about Guy Fawkes - Counting to 10. The students could also take the laminated photos and sort them into order. Teachers could show two printed out cards at once and add them, subtract them, or multiply them.

Lesson 1: Week 5 Title Mass Learning Objective:  solve measurement problems  use words about mass and ways of measuring weight  measure using non-standard units  compare weights  estimate and measure.

Make target setting an interactive, hands on activity! This ideas is based on a simple 3D square based pyramid net. There is space on each side for students to write down their monthly English, Maths and Social targets. There is also a space for their name and something they learnt in the previous month. I added the motivational quotes so students appreciate what they are learning towards. I added the positive behaviour system, where the students move around the track each time they achieve their pyramids targets! The harder they work, the faster they move around the track. Lots of fun for everyone! I have created this worksheet in black and white so teachers can either print them on white paper or onto different coloured papers, the idea being to change the colour of the pyramid every month, so everyone knows which pyramid they should now be following.

Do you teach Dutch? Use my Halloween materials to boost their learning in a fun way! You learn a counting song in Dutch. I have also included a Halloween themed worksheet which you could ask the children to translate into Dutch. I have also included a presentation showing you 31 different ways the students could then use their worksheets to create new teaching activities in the classroom.

The students could also take the laminated photos and sort them into different groups of skeletons. The students can then discuss what they think each skeleton was saying or thinking. The photos could also be used as prompts for creative writing, factual writing or descriptive writing.

A fun way to learn the Polish numbers during Halloween.
