Pupils are divided into groups and are required to make decisions/take actions.

Members of the group have to leave their homes. They are required to choose 6 items to take with them. Scenario 2 - A pick-up truck arrives to take the group to a boat on the coast. The driver speeds away as fast as he can. He hits a speed bump and one of the group’s bags falls off the back of the truck.

To make the journey easier everyone has to take the heaviest item out of their bag to make it lighter. Scenario 6 – The group reaches the coast. There is a small boat waiting. However, the boat can only take four people. Scenario 7 – The man with the boat wants payment. Members of the group must give any money they have to him.

Your bag is drenched. Anything which could be affected by water is ruined. Review: "Wow, my year 10 History students loved this lesson.

This is a fun game for Halloween in school and for Halloween parties. This resource contains a Halloween-themed version of ‘Stop the Bus.’ It is a PowerPoint game that can be played with the whole class or the whole school in assembly time. Instructions Put the pupils into teams of 2-4 Let the pupils take turns in choosing a picture. Click on the picture. Behind each picture is a letter. The letter will magically disappear so that pupils know the choices that are left. Pupils have to think of one item to go in each category beginning with that letter. A sheet for recording words is provided. Teams have 60 seconds to complete the task. There is a timer on the slide. The witch image will gradually disappear and the end of the 60 seconds culminates in a witch’s cackle. Halloween background music plays whilst pupils think of words. To return to the image page, click on the letter on the top right-hand corner of the witch slide. If a team finishes before the 60 seconds, they shout “Stop the Broom!” Click on the slide to activate the witch’s cackle when all teams have to stop. Teams score 1 point if they have an appropriate item in the category. They get 2 points if no other team has that word. The length of time pupils have can be reduced or extended by altering the timing of the witch image. Please note that the watermark on the preview images is not present on the resource itself.

Acts of kindness include: Pick up ten pieces of litter in your school playground or in your home area this week. Remember to wear some gloves! Hold the door open for someone. If you see someone alone with no friends on the school playground go and talk to them and ask if they want to chat or play. Tell a teacher how much you enjoyed their lesson. Let someone else go first in a queue that you are in. Give a Christmas card to someone you would not normally give one to. Tell someone how much you love them. Give someone a compliment today. Donate your unwanted books, toys or games to a charity. Sit with someone at lunch that looks lonely or that doesn’t have very many friends. Do a chore or job at home that you would not normally do. Do something nice for someone but don’t tell them or anyone else that you did it. Say thank you to the school caretaker for the things he / she does. Write a note to someone who has lit up their house with amazing lights and decorations to say thank you for lighting up their house for you to see and enjoy.
