Remember 9/11 - PowerPoint and 31 Great Ways To Use This Teaching Resource In The Classroom

(0)
Are you talking about 9/11 and the effects of terrorism? This teaching resource is full of eye catching images about the event. I have also created a second PowerPoint presentation about the 31 different ways you could use this teaching resource in your classroom. You could look at it directly as a presentation and discuss the different actions being shown in each of the photos. You could print off and laminate the photos to make an interesting, eye-catching display about Remembering 9/11. The students could also take the laminated photos and sort them into different groupings. The students can then discuss what they think each one was saying or thinking. The photos could also be used as prompts for creative writing, factual writing or descriptive writing.

All about me pennant - Getting to know you activity + Thinking Hat Reflection Sheet

(0)
You simply print off this pennant at the beginning of the year as a Getting to know you activity. I like the idea of laminating them and placing them directly above the different groups of children. The children can quickly learn more about each other. The students have a chance to set themselves a fun target to achieve in the year. At the end of the year the students can then look again at their targets and see if they have achieved their goals. This could also make a very homework task. Get them to build up their pennants using different materials from around the home. I added a reflection sheet for times children are not quite as good as you would like.
3D Monthly Desktop Targets Pyramid, Motivational Quotes And Positive Behaviour System

3D Monthly Desktop Targets Pyramid, Motivational Quotes And Positive Behaviour System

(0)
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.

International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination - Facts, Figures and Videos

This presentation is good for International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination and Harmony Day. This presentation uses the facts from the police records of racial discrimination in the UK. It also looks at the impact of the Brexit, both before and after the vote and how this reflected in racial discrimination. There are lots of chances for the students to discuss what is discrimination, multiculturism and the Brexit.

Climate Change Week - What is it, The Causes, The Consequences, How to help + Colouring Book

(0)
Climate Change Week or anything you need to know about global warming and climate change. I have based my presentations on work carried out by both NASA and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). I have collected together information about climate change, its causes, its consequences and some of the things students can do to help reduce their own impact on the environment. In addition, I have included some colouring sheets which will make lovely pieces of display work. This work does contain public domain material, but it has taken a considerable amount of time to change these into attractive, informative documents for children.

Transport Bundle

Transport Bundle

13 Resources
This is a set of presentations about different forms of transport.

This a good way to introduce the topic of cars and transport. I have also included two ‘Talk a lot’ teaching units about transport and cars. Finally, I also included the car free day presentation, to see how many different forms of transport the children can identify. Ask your students to describe what are the pros and cons of using each type of transport.
