Have any fans of the Stitch Head books by Guy Bass? Treat them to this duo of activities relating to the first book in the series.
One of the activities is a wordsearch, with 40 words / terms to find, and which includes some decorative images to entertain the kids as they work through it.
The other activity is a questions worksheet, containing 16 questions relating to the Stitch Head book (book 1). The kids will surely have fun writing down the answers to the questions, and for those who might need some help, you can let them know that all the answers can be found within the list of wordsearch words/terms.
Answer sheet for questions included.
Prepare now for celebrating the Fourth of July with your students and children. Or use it to simply spread awareness of the history of the famous date and the way the day is celebrated.
This listing contains a quality 3-activity sheet with a wordsearch, fill the blanks and 10 Independence Day-themed questions. Students / children will likely need to conduct some research for at least some of these questions!
Also included is the wordsearch on its own if you prefer it as well as the answer sheet for all activities.
This pack contains 14 pages of activities.
The first is a 2-page activity, for which the kids need to name, trace and then design (colouring, painting, glittering etc) each of the 11 featured dinosaurs (grey silhouettes). There is a table of names on page 2 which the kids can use to help them name the dinos. A file with the dinosaur silhouettes and their names is included.
The next 11 sheets are the individual dinosaurs enlarged on A4 files, with instructions suggesting that after naming and tracing the dinosaurs, they should get creative and colour and decorate, before writing 3 facts about the dinosaur. Surely these would make for a great wall display.
The last activity is a wonderful anagrams activity. The kids need to read the (often strange) set of words and then rearrange the letters to figure out the name of the dinosaur. ‘carpet riots’ anyone? (Answer file included)

With the popularity of the multi-platform game ARK: Survival Evolved, take advantage of the love children have for the game (and prehistoric creatures) and get them on these wordsearches
There are 100 creatures across the three wordsearches.
The children are also challenged to name the creatures featured on each of the wordsearches (answer file provided for this.) The images have a filter of a ‘sketch’ style, trying to mimic the game so good luck to the kids in naming them!

This quiz can be used as a comprehension exercise where children watch the film “The Pirates! Band of Misfits” and then answer as many questions correctly as they can.
The adjusted / differentiated activity can be that the film is watched in two halves (or smaller chunks) to give children less to remember all at once and more of a chance to get all 18 questions correct!
This activity can also be an opportunity to practice spellings, learn something new (what exactly is a barnacle?) and most importantly, have fun! You can also encourage children to come up with their own questions to test others.
This is a suitable task for Grade 4 upwards (approximately 8+ years) and FYI the film has a PG rating. Answer sheet is included.
If not used for skills practice, just save it for a treat or a rainy day!
TWELVE quality wordsearch puzzles (in a zip file) based on key terms from six Roald Dahl Books:
Fantastic Mr Fox;
George’s Marvellous Medicine;
James and the Giant Peach;
Matilda;
The Magic Finger;
The Twits.
10-word and 30-word wordsearches for each story. (Simple differentiation / use depending on the time available.)
These were used with Year / Grade 5 children when they were reading Roald Dahl stories and they thoroughly enjoyed them (and older (or younger!) children will enjoy them too.) These were used in class as a starter, to support their recollection of events in the books, as well as to reinforce spellings. They were also used with students as part of World Book Day celebrations and as part of school library sessions to promote the love of reading.
