'Work in progress' Signs
‘Work In Progress’ signs, FREE download!
Busy children are often expected to stop what they are enthralled with and return the classroom to a tidy state, whether what they are playing with is completed or not. These ‘Work In Progress’ signs I created for children to put on models or construction that they have not yet completed in order to protect what is being built so that others know not to tidy it away. No more anxiety over “but it’s not finished!” and I convey the message that the ideas and creations of a child are respected and viewed as far more important than the tidiness of the room. The idea is working too well for me to not share it, so here is a link to download copies of the resources I have made, help yourselves.

Easter Bunny Nature Craft
FREEBEE :D
Print and decorate with nature!
I ask children to create their bunny rabbits by using natural materials that have been found in the playground! Leaves make the most perfect rabbit ears! You can also use…
Grass
Stones
Flowers
Sticks
Soil
Seeds
Pine cones
Straw
This activity has endless benefits, the most obvious being developing creativity in children, fine motor skills, sensory skills and of course an appreciation of natural resources they might otherwise not use.
Have fun!

CVC Word letters (Post office role play and topic)
Letters with different CVC words on for children to read. 40 words included! I printed and laminated mine and put them in the post office role play so that when the children had read the word correctly, they could go and post their letter in a role play post box! In other lessons I have also printed them and asked the children to draw a picture of the word on the back of the letter.
Perfect for…
-Segmenting and blending practise
-Post office topic
-Fine motor skill development
-Spelling practise
-Working in pairs (one child to read, one child to check the word has been read correctly)
-Working independently (children can self assess)
-Writing
Have fun!
