Here are a series of 4 differentiated worksheets to help students create a persuasive poster encouraging people to buy Bug Houses that they were producing as part of their Design and Technology lessons. This set of posters formed part of an observed lesson and was designed to show cross curricular links with English. (As we currently have a focus on writing within our school.) We started the lesson by showing the students a variety of adverts and talking about the features they use.

A 5 minute sound file that has been used to simulate an air raid at school and my Cub Scout Pack. It starts with an air raid siren, then has explosion sound effects before finishing with the all clear. We have used it separately and in association with my Child's War Quiz (WW1 & WW2), We pushed some tables together and covered them with a sheet / tarp to make an shelter. A smoke machine was used for extra effect.

A PowerPoint containing the Lyrics to the song Kumbaya. There are verses for: Singing, Dancing, Crying, Praying and Waiting.

A couple of pieces that I wrote about Kenya when I had an English tutor. One looks at the naming traditions of the Kikuyu tribe whilst the other looks at the typical days of a 10 year old girl both during holiday time and on a normal school day. These sheets might be useful for introducing pupils to the differences between the UK and Kenya.

This set of files contains the contours needed to construct a 3D model of Ingleborough. You can either print out a few copies of the image and stick it on card and cut the layers out or if you are lucky enough to have access to a Denford Laser Cutter you can use the contained MCM files (see the word document). The Publisher document contains a map to help with the assembly of the model and 3 pictures with the question which of them matches the given contours. This resource was originally made for a Cub Scout Competition.

Here are a couple of sheets I made for one of our classes that was making bird feeders. One of the two sheets is a matching exercise where the pupils have to draw lines to link up the pictures of the birds with their names and descriptions. The other sheet is related to why the number of garden birds are decreasing and formed the basis for a piece of research that they needed to do.

Here is a sheet that I drew up that contains a 3D template for students to draw their ideas on. It also contains a simplified and topic adjusted version of Erica_C_Hanson's 'How to Annotate' sheet. These resources were used with an Autistic Group of Year 7/8 Students at the Special School I work at. I hope you find them useful.

A set of sheets that I made for our Special School (Autism) to help introduce Access FM Analysis to them. They were doing a topic on making MDF frames for mirrors so as a bit of research had them do the analysis of these existing products. There are 8 different designs in this pack. There are short hints to what each word of ACCESS FM means.

An A4 sheet with the lyrics to the song Jambo Jambo Bwana.
