I am the Head Teacher Of Maria International School Of Bucharest in Romania. I am also very keen at developing different TES teaching resources to discover what works well for different classes. I am constantly looking for new and exciting different ways of presenting and teaching different primary topics, especially maths topics.

Which would you rather? - A fun set of 100 child friendly either or questions for 3 to 8 year olds.
This is a child friendly set of questions which encourages them to make decisions and explain their answers to the rest of the class.
When I play this game, I set two corners of the room, one for each answer. The children get up and move to the best answer for them.
It could be used as a time filler, in Golden Time or during conversation.
You could print out the pictures and mix them up or use them as a PowerPoint presentation.
You simply print off this pennant at the beginning of the year as a Getting to know you activity. I like the idea of laminating them and placing them directly above the different groups of children. The children can quickly learn more about each other.
The students have a chance to set themselves a fun target to achieve in the year. At the end of the year the students can then look again at their targets and see if they have achieved their goals. This could also make a very homework task. Get them to build up their pennants using different materials from around the home.
I added a reflection sheet for times children are not quite as good as you would like.
Make target setting an interactive, hands on activity! This ideas is based on a simple 3D square based pyramid net. There is space on each side for students to write down their monthly English, Maths and Social targets. There is also a space for their name and something they learnt in the previous month.
I added the motivational quotes so students appreciate what they are learning towards. I added the positive behaviour system, where the students move around the track each time they achieve their pyramids targets! The harder they work, the faster they move around the track. Lots of fun for everyone!
I have created this worksheet in black and white so teachers can either print them on white paper or onto different coloured papers, the idea being to change the colour of the pyramid every month, so everyone knows which pyramid they should now be following.
Are you teaching about the International Day of Democracy? Are your students interested in discussing why we need to vote? This is a PowerPoint full of Powerful images to help you.
I have also written a PowerPoint which explains how you can use this teaching resource to help you with 31 different teaching activities in the classroom.
You could look at it directly as a presentation and discuss the different materials being shown in each of the photos. I have collected these photos together to save teachers everywhere from needing to do it themselves.
You could print off and laminate the photos to make an interesting, eye-catching display about International Day of Democracy.
The students could also take the laminated photos and sort them into different types of Democracy. The students can then discuss what they think each one is important.
The photos could also be used as prompts for creative writing, factual writing or descriptive writing.

This presentation is good for International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination and Harmony Day.
This presentation uses the facts from the police records of racial discrimination in the UK. It also looks at the impact of the Brexit, both before and after the vote and how this reflected in racial discrimination.
There are lots of chances for the students to discuss what is discrimination, multiculturism and the Brexit.
Climate Change Week or anything you need to know about global warming and climate change.
I have based my presentations on work carried out by both NASA and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
I have collected together information about climate change, its causes, its consequences and some of the things students can do to help reduce their own impact on the environment. In addition, I have included some colouring sheets which will make lovely pieces of display work.
This work does contain public domain material, but it has taken a considerable amount of time to change these into attractive, informative documents for children.
