A fun game to help children to get to know their new class mates at the beginning of the year! There are two games, one of older junior school children. This resource could easily be adapted for older pupils. PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK!

6 Philosophy Sessions for years 1-4

If you have never tried philosophy before these lessons are a good starting point! The children really enjoy these discussions/debates! Based on ideas from Philosophy 4 children everything is explained in the lesson plans. PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK! The children sit in a circle and take turns to discuss what they think the answer to the question is-saying whether they agree or disagree with another child. They improve their listening, speaking and reasoning skills and learn that there is not always one right answer to a question.

There are 5 lessons which involve learning songs to help children to feel good about themselves, inspired by the SEAL topic! PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK! The main song they learn is from the Sing Up website 'Good to be me' which they can perform to the rest of the school. Please leave feedback! There are actions to learn too. There are detailed lesson plans and Smart board slides to support this. Other songs in this topic that the children learn to sing are &'This little light of mine&'; and 'Life is a wonderful thing&'. There are hyper links to all the songs-all on the Sing Up website.

This is a great activity to do at the beginning of the year-makes a great display. This Smart board introduces acrostic poems to the children and has lots of adjectives they could use to describe themselves. PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK! The children could type them out on to the computer once they have written them in rough.
