I used these worksheets when teaching time in Y1. Our theme was based around Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, so one of the activities is linked to the theme! - Days of the week - Sequencing events - o'clock - half past

I used a lot of 'revision' sheets during the final weeks of the Year One year to check understanding and extend thinking. - Addition and Subtraction - How do you know? - Missing number problems - Word problems

I used these worksheets while teaching money in Y1. Our theme was 'Woodlands' and we had been doing a lot of work about plants and animals. - Coin recognition - Adding coins together

I used these worksheets when teaching measurement in Y1. The worksheets cover the use of mathematical language to do with measurement, what equipment should be used when measuring different things and measuring lengths, heights, capacity, volume, weight and mass. Our theme was 'sea side', so we finished the unit with a bag of fish and chips which we measured before eating! :-)

Our Y1 theme was based on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. We used our History sessions to study life as a Victorian worker and compared Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory with a Victorian factory. Our class assembly was a brief, humorous representation of what we had learnt. - Script - Powerpoint with music

A 'My First Day at School' frame for children starting school.

A unit of work on addition and subtraction. Planning and worksheets. Farm theme! :-)

A format I used to do some focused observations on the children over a unit of work. Diagrams used to create a visual! Great to use with SEN children. :-)

OVER 50 WORKSHEETS! A bundle of worksheet activities I leave out for the children to choose throughout the year, alongside practical tasks. Later in the year they get a reward if they complete a certain amount of worksheets/practical activities during their independent time. These activities that I have uploaded are mainly english and maths based, but there are few other topics coverered too. Some of the documents have a few activities on them (I have named them ‘random pack’) and others are just one activity. Some packs have poster (to display in the area/give instructions) to go alongside the worksheet too. Overall there are over 50 worksheets. *please note: in the random packs, sometimes the activities are in the wrong order, but it’s pretty self explanatory which sheet comes before the other - eg: with a cut and stick, some times the things to cut are displayed on the sheet before the sheet to stick onto!

Great as a transition activity and ‘end of year’ gift! - Can be edited to suit all primary year groups I made this book for my class to complete during the last few weeks of reception and then take home as part of their leaving gift. It’s a fun way of noting how they feel about completing their first year of school, talking about transition and some good memories. Parents loved it when their children brought this home! It was also a great way of getting some more writing evidence. Inside there are questions such as: How did your family feel on your first day of school? What would you like to learn in Year One? What do you like doing best at school? and lots more! There are spaces for you to stick photos of the children onto and to add a school logo. Please note - the TES preview sometimes looks a little different, take a look at the image preview that I have added for how it will look when you download (some borders have been cut out, but hopefully you get the idea! :-D)

I use this template for my ‘spellings of the week’ display which I put on a light box! Cut along the lines, laminate if you wish (works without) and slide into a standard sized light box. Really effective and the children love it! :-)

I use this planning to support my daily ‘guided reading’ sessions for my reception class. I used this planning in Autumn Term 2, so I have focused on reading, communication and language and physical development objectives (taken from Development Matters). I split the objectives into three groups to suit my class, but the table can be edited to suit a different cohort. Objectives and ELGs can also be added throughout the year. I will also add some of my tricky word and spelling practise resources to my TES shop soon. :-) Please note - the TES preview looks a little different, see my picture preview for how it will look when you download.

I used these worksheets when teaching a unit on money in Y1. - Coin recognition - Adding coins together - Missing number problems - How much more do you need to pay?

Phonics and Keyword Assessment Process and ‘Keyword Keyring’ Resources! Brief Outline and Instructions Below - FULL Outline and Instructions Included In This Pack! This year, we have tried out a new system to assess phonics and key words (tricky and high frequency) with our reception class. Alongside this, we have also introduced a new way for the children to learn their tricky and high frequency words using a Keyword Keyring and other resources. What we are doing may not fit your school/expectations exactly, but it is something that has worked really well for us so I thought I’d share it on TES as it can be edited to suit you and your class. :-) We have printed an assessment booklet for each child in our class to track their confidence with graphemes, decodable words and tricky words within each phonics phase. We do lots of phonics/keyword practise at school, but have set up a new system to motivate the children to learn their high frequency, tricky and some decodable words at home too. Using the resources in this pack, you can print, cut and laminate the words to create a display and a keyring! I have also included sheets which I send home to children/parents as an ongoing ‘homework’. There is a sheet for each phonics phase which I print and laminate. Once the children know all of the words on that sheet, they get the next sheet along with signed certificate for completing the set that they were working on. We really celebrate when a phase is complete and the children and parents have responded really well to this! When the children know ALL of the words on the Keyword Keyring, they are presented with a special certificate and keyring reward in assembly. Resources/shopping links that I used to create these are in this pack! *(We try and use the assessment booklet every week – although this can sometimes be hard with 30 children and 1 Teacher and TA!) I hope that this all makes sense - this is a very brief version as to what is included in the pack! The download includes instructions with pictures etc. It may not be perfect, but it has worked SO well for us this year – I hope that it can work for you too. A lot of hard work went into making all of this and even more work is needed for the laminating and keyring making, but I honestly believe that it is worth it. Thanks! 16 Files Included: Phonics, tricky and high frequency word assessment booklet (links to the keyword keyring resources) Phase 2 (LION) keywords to be used as display and for keyrings Phase 2 (LION) keyword ongoing ‘homework’ sheet to be sent home Phase 2 (LION) keyword keyring certificate Phase 3 (MONKEY) keywords to be used as display and for keyrings Phase 3 (MONKEY) keyword ongoing ‘homework’ sheet to be sent home Phase 3 (MONKEY) keyword keyring certificate Phase 4 (PENGUIN) keywords to be used as display and for keyrings Phase 4 (PENGUIN) keyword ongoing ‘homework’ sheet to be sent home Phase 4 (PE) keyword keyring certificate

I have made some flash cards/display cards with the capital letter, block lettering and cursive lettering for phase 2 and phase 3 phonics. I have saved it as a PDF as the fonts that I have used may not be on your laptop.

A game/activity which could be used at home or in school. The Disney characters are disagreeing - the children need to find the right answer using objects or drawings. There is a page showing the children/parents how to find the answer. :-)

Christmas Elf Hunt! Help Mrs Claus find the cheeky elves. Tick box sheet and elves to print and hide.

A bird and egg hunt that can be used in Forest School or any outdoor area! The aim is to find the matching bird where you will also discover what the egg it hatched from looked like. A fun, education egg hunt for Easter too! *Tick box sheet and bird/egg/name posters to be cut and hidden attached
