Vocabulary Ninja Display
This is a super cute display for Vocabulary Ninjas. I personally like to use hessian and matte laminating pouches, but this will work on a variety of backings. There are over 20 individual parts, including the heading.
This display would also work for most times table tracking displays.
I’ve also added a display plan of how I envisage it to be hung, but you can experiment with what works best for your display boards!
I would recommend you printing a few copies of page 6 - I think I went with 6 in the end. I then laminated these with a gloss pouch, so I could use a whiteboard pen to write, remove and rewrite vocabulary onto them.
Enjoy!

My Book Review
I have created this resource for pupils to review books that they have read. I’m hoping these will act as inspiration for others in my class and will provide a love for reading.
