My class 'received&' a letter from Captain Pete Pigeon, during our literacy unit on writing letters. We wrote back to him on the &';scrolls' and it made a really nice display, along with the old fashioned map, compass and title.

This powerpoint spans history, PHSE and P4C. The children answered all the questions on the slides about Henry's wives (once the slideshow is running, you can circle the right answer on each slide by right clicking -> pointer options -> selecting a pen). Then a selection of children came up to the front of the class, whilst the others 'directed' them as to how the freezeframe should look. Once the freezeframe was perfected, other children came out and held laminated speech bubbles and thought bubbles around the characters. Finally we took a photo.

An introduction to the world map and the map of the British Isles, and a simple activity to go with it.

I made a 'character drawer&', full of brightly coloured laminated well known characters (from children&';s literature, Disney, Pixar, etc), and a 'settings drawer&', full of laminated A4 sheets showing all sorts of different settings, including photographs, animated and multicultural scenes. The idea is that children choose a character/characters and a setting, and write an imaginative story or some sentences. I also included tiny flashcards saying each of the characters names, so the children can match up the pictures with the words.

I made these blank booklets for my Year 2 class when we were doing information texts in literacy. The booklets are differentiated for higher, middle and lower ability. Hope they save somebody some time!

A PowerPoint with a story about Jesus as a young person, moving on to his training as a carpenter and a slide asking what the children would like to be when they grow up.

I made a PowerPoint and activity sheets to help my Year 3 pupils become familiar with solving number riddles such as 'I choose a mystery number, double it and add 2, I end up with 12. What was my mystery number?'

Colourful pictures of different fruits and vegetables made to look like animals.

I used this activity when we were working on measuring in cm within our 'Ourselves' topic. The children worked in pairs and used rulers and tape measures to measure the length of their hands, ears, feet, etc.

Three differentiated activity sheets for LA, MA and HA children on adding whole numbers and fractions together.

I made this resource to help my Year 1's become familiar with matching up lower case letters to their equivalent capital letters, by matching the ice-cream to the correct cone.

A quick activity to help children become familiar with the German vocabulary for starter, main course and dessert. It also has space for them to write down their favourite choices of food and drink in German.

I used this during our Ancient Egypt topic as part of a wall display.

Simple bunting for each child to fill out with their name, age and a drawing of themselves. To be hung up in the classroom during the first week back!

The children studied a country in pairs, using books and the Internet, and then wrote an imaginative diary entry as if they were a child living in that country.

A sheet that encourages children to imagine what thet could see, smell, hear and feel in a setting.

Activities based on the Alfie and Annie Rose stories by Shirley Hughes. The first activity is for the children to describe both characters, and the second is for the children to retell the story of Mr McNally's hat in a story-map style.

A simple and child friendly assessment to allow you to quickly see where your children are within the Year 2 English curriculum and highlight any individual or class gaps in learning. Can be used each term to show progress.
