I like resources which are visual and can be used on different levels. I've been teaching for a long time and relish the challenge of helping others learn.

Fed up of no cover waiting for you when you arrive ? List of activiities for those pesky moments. Head off to reprographics and charge the paper to the relevant department… A3 ALWAYS works best :)
Using an already extant board (thanks), I’ve put together a game which students can play using their old exercise books/trivial pursuit cards/questions gleaned from the net/adults.
Two versions uploaded. PPt editable and a pdf.
All here.
Template to help students keeps a daily tab on their lives throughout this defining moment in our modern history. Lesson to accompany this journal.
Students simply add as they progress and can copy and paste items they think will be of interest in the future.
Pastoral slides for a year 7 but can be adapted . A quick reminder that it’s really simple to make resolutions. They should already form part of who we are and what we do. Good for assembly/tutor time.
Pupils consistently display a thirst for knowledge and understanding and a love of learning, including when being taught as a whole class or working on their own or in small groups. This has a very strong impact on their progress in lessons.
With this in mind I devised an independent project for Year 7s (but it could run across the whole school). On our school VLE I posted the attached tasks. Each Year 7 student was given a scrap book and told to complete as many tasks as they wanted. For each completed task, the student receives a gold coin sticker. I organised it through tutor groups so the form with the most coins wins a trip out of school in the summer term.
Parents love this as it gives students something to do in the holidays and on weekends. Activities are often London based as this is our nearest city but this can be adapted to any place in the world.
Get your departments on board and help develop a thirst for knowledge in your school!
