I’ve retired from twenty five years teaching in the UK. I’ve gathered together my planning I did over the years for 4 to 11 year olds. There’s some great stuff there. Plenty of planning, powerpoints, worksheets, scripts for assemblies etc etc There is some stuff on Christmas in the world e.g. France There will be lots of things you can use to entertain the kids at this busy but wonderful time of the year. You get a massive of planning. 257 mb over 400 files Some caveats: I spent most but not all of my career in Catholic schools so everything has a Catholic feel. Lots of math stuff. I don’t have the time to sort everything so feel free to delete anything you regard as filler or irrelevant. You’ll need powerpoint and word to access most of it. Nearly everyone has that. there are some notebooks, flipcharts etc. I obviously can’t give you that so you have to get the free adobe reader and other free software to read some of the files.
