This resource has a power point to demonstrate the idea of this resource, and show what the finished product would look like. It includes a sheet of 17 word problems which can be printed out, laminated and used with younger children. The hands-on aspect of this idea is rooted in the concept of concrete experiences for younger children, to help them grasp more abstract ideas.
This set of resources include a four week planning sequence and power point of the dioramas that the children made. When all put together they made a vibrate display on a wall, and create an atmosphere evocative of the rainforest environment.
This power point contains ideas for presenting children's work in an attractive and positive way. It shows how to use work produced to good effect, so that it can be shared and discussed by the children.
It is also motivational and encourages children to think about their work and how it fits into what other do.
Book can be built up over weeks to make a class collection that can be shared and enjoyed. All subjects can be incorporated in to books and ideas adapted to suit groups of children.
This is a selection of ideas for supporting children who find it difficult to access the general classroom activities. They help the child to contextualize reading and writing, as well as the recognition skills and intrinsic meaning within the process of learning to read, and then write.
The formats can be changed to suit children as individuals, and their particular interests and choices.
Could also be used in other situations, such as supporting children learning English as a new language. These items could also be made more complex, as the child progresses.
A power point slide show to stimulate questions and discussion about the physical effects of forces on materials. This should be a support activity after a practical activity, in which the children are able to observe and test out ideas and discover questions and answers for themselves.
This set of resources has a power point of examples of Children's Art around the theme of Micro-organisms. Children investigated pictures and films around this theme, discussed creative issues as well as scientific knowledge and made their own responses from a selected range of resources.
There are three planning documents for the topic.
The documents are designed to support EAL learning, specifically with regards sentence construction. They give learners opportunity to think, make judgments and decide what is appropriate. They are fun, especially when you get it wrong...
The concept can be applied to other situations at the teachers discretion...
This power point and activity sheets, are to help children think logically and methodically about solving number problems. The class could rehearse the skills needed, or just let the children have a go at working out the puzzles.
This set of resources has a powerpoint of students work, which is fairly self-explanatory. We made a Universe, colour mixing and matching, tissue paper skies, 3D cosmonauts/astronauts, designing space badges from space missions.
A three week series of planning also included.
A dramatic display for a wonderful time in human history. The colour and the forms reflect the concern with beauty, meaning and simplicity.
Ancient Greece- enlightened and forward thinking.
Plenty of negative bits too... the women issue... not good...
this is demonstrations of skills used for close drawing and making a selection of minibeast designs. There is also guidance for making a scene about where they live.

These resources will get you started and motivated to examine this amazing piece of Art work. It has become part of Irish culture for a long time, and continues to be the premier manuscript for illustration and illumination.
A power point, a series of planning documents and a pupil planning sheet are here.
The humans will supply the rest...
The two power points and proforma sheet are to provide some structure and a sounding board for children to discuss the format of a park and to share their ideas for their own designs. It is better if children are able to actually visit a park, and make their own analysis of what they see, but these slides can also help them clarify and talk together about the subject. If they can actually build models of their ideas, it develops spacial awareness, consideration of the environment and economic issues.
This set of resources includes a four week planning sequence, a planning overview, a powerpoint of examples of Chinese artefacts that children have made, and a power point of a sketchbook produced as a response to Hong Kong. These provide the starting point for a topic, and a motivational an inspirational set of pictures.
This power point shows a number of ideas for making books with small children and the value of using them to promote reading, writing, mathematics, drawing, science, etc.
Sharing books is a good way to motivate little ones and provides a forum for them to talk about what they have done and recorded.
BIG books can be collected over time and displayed along a wall using cup hooks. Children can easily choose them and look and share with each other.
This series of resources includes a mapping document of the whole pic. Also a series of planning for 5 weeks. A summary of the work produced is shown on the power point.
These resources include a power point to show examples of the work produced by the children over a five week period, of one day of Art every week. There is also a series of planning sheets for the five weeks, and two examples of pupils response to what they experienced. Also included are a blank pro forma for the pupil responses.
This power point shows the work of reception class as they designed and made their own shoes. Some help was necessary for cutting the corrugated card and the fabric. We used a wide variety of materials and used our imagination to put the pieces together to make a pair of shoes.. 120 children took part in this project- that's 240 cardboard soles..!!
This is a plan sheet and model text for use with IWB and could be used for reading , writing, or speaking and listening. It discusses points of view and presents a discussion around this issue. It could be used to start a unit of work, or to initializes a specific piece of work by children.
Keep it flexible and with opportunities for children to think of their own ideas - that is best of all... if it becomes a burden, then scrap it!
