Tired of having to type in the names of pupils into a power point when wanting to pick a random pupil to answer a question etc., and then having to do the whole process again with the names of a different class? With this power point , you have a universal name picker generator! All you need is a pack of cards - share them out amongst the pupils, play the power point slide, press pause, and whichever card is displayed, the pupil with that card will have to answer, or whatever. Saves a lot of time.

A stylish Takeaway Homework Menu for (almost) all subjects! QR code sheet will take you direct to specific worksheets to enable pupils to produce quality Starters, Mains and Deserts (help with their organisation and communication and IT skills) Starters include: Tweet Your Knowledge Word Search Mains include: What's In A Word?

An interesting group activity on the aims and objectives of the Big Three at Versailles. Each group (ideally no more than 3 pupils) represents one of the Big Three. Group members are allocated 2 Thinking Hats (last slide) and have to approach the issue of how to punish Germany from the perspective of their individual (Wilson, Lloyd George or Clemenceau), but also from the specific roles provided by their coloured hats. All required printable sheets are found within the ppt (e.g. slide 3 will need to b cut up into three, slide 9 is the colourless version of the group sheet, but keep the coloured version projected to guide them and slide 10 have the Thinking Hats and need cutting up for the pupils etc.) Was observed for this lesson, and got an excellent as it covered so many bases! Enjoy.
