<p>Originally created for a special needs class I have also used this resource with early years and year one classes. Pupils need to be read the story of St George and are shown how it fits into five parts. Beginning-Setting-Problem-Solution-End. Pupils then help create a different version of the story choosing from in-print blocks with symbols and words to help support understanding.</p> <p>The power point contains a model created with a class and then the corresponding blank sheets for pupils to use to create their own story.</p>

<p>Sheets made around the story ’ When mum turned into a monster ’ by Joanna Harrison. A fun book where the childrens behaviour slowly turns their mum into a monster.</p> <p>Previously used with special needs children to help them understand emotions. I have also used the sheets with main stream children who struggle to control their emotions.</p> <p>Has the story as a power point and sheets to go alongside the story for the children to create their own version.</p>

<p>A power point with sheets that takes a class through the story of the colour monster.</p> <p>The sheets add more words to help children express their feelings through further synonyms which they are able to choose. For example happiness: glee, elation, pleasure, delight, jubilation.</p> <p>A microphone is also needed as children are encouraged to add their own thoughts to the power point after each emotion is expressed. For instance What makes you scared? These can be revisited and used to highlight how different things make different people feel.</p> <p>The power point also has a graph where the children can chart how they think the character is feeling as the monster goes through all the different emotions.</p>

<p>These sheets were made as a follow up activity for children to complete during continuous provision free flow.</p> <p>After completing a RWI word time lesson I would put the corresponding sheet out in our writing/phonics area. We would also use them to help with blending skills and the selection of sounds for green words independent of the RWI syllabus.</p>

<p>You will need the story ‘When Mum turned into a monster’ by Joanna Harrison. It can be found on youtube as well.</p> <p>PSHE Thrive Emotions resource. Based on the story ‘When Mum Turned Into A Monster’. The story follows a mum who gradually turns into a monster due to the actions of her children over a day.</p> <p>The resource investigates what makes mum angry in the story, what makes your teacher, parent, siblings and you angry. When you turn angry what part of you do you feel turning into a monster first?</p> <p>Helps children talk about what they do or don’t do to turn others into monster, What others do to turn them into monster. Allowing children and adults to look at their actions and choices in a humorous way and think about positive ways to express emotion or keep calm.</p> <p>Made originally to work with a SEN class with some children with severe anger issues who viewed anger as a negative emotion and struggled to label themselves as anything but happy. Story helped them talk about anger and turning into a monster without becoming upset.</p>

<p>A colourful semantics make a sentence power point that can be printed out to be used with children to make and write sentences. I have a laminated copy with velcro that I have successfully used in Nursery, Reception and SEN settings.</p>

<p>A fantastic resource to use with children to count in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s. Pupils can order Numicon and Dot domino squares to match numerals. Then record their voices (With adult help) so they can listen to themselves count in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s.</p> <p>An excellent maths and ICT resource to use with Early Years children or Year One.</p> <p>I have used the power points with lots of success with a number of Reception classes and also in a SEN school.</p>

<p>A colourful semantics Powerpoint which can be printed out to complete with children focused on transport and sentence formation.</p>

<p>A power point helping children to write a five part story using the story of St George.</p> <p>-Beginning<br /> -Setting<br /> -Problem<br /> -Solution<br /> -End</p> <p>Each part has a sentence for the children to use with synonyms to choose from to help improve their vocabulary and writing. Model and pictures for the five parts are included. I have used this power point with a reception class, Year One class and with a number of classes in Key stage two in a SEN school.</p> <p>When teaching using the power point I like to play a game called word catcher with the children. I pretend to throw the synonyms out to the children and then they say which word they are going to use. An idea taken from ‘THe write stuff’ by Jane Considine.</p>

<p>Read Write Ink Set One sounds.<br /> Power point that follows the Read Write Ink set one sounds progression.<br /> Everything required to teach the sound lessons using an interactive white board.</p>
