Land of Learning

(based on 2112 reviews)

Hi! I currently work in London as a Deputy Headteacher. I love all things teaching and learning! I am extremely passionate about education and find researching and creating new strategies and ideas exciting. The world of teaching and leading in England is highly stressful and it's up to all of us to look after each other's well-being...I hope my resources save you some precious time.

A silly story captured in screen shots. Watch the film at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csdZQZmgKfQ I watched this short cartoon with my class who then cut the small images out, stuck them into their books and retold the story next to it with a focus on punctuation. They really enjoyed it because the story is so silly! Pictures can be used for many different activities but will hopefully save you some time!
