Getting ready for the summer Phonics test? Here are two Phonics revision tests from previous years.
I have converted 4 documents into a simple to use PowerPoint.
It starts off with practice words. These include both real and made up words. These help students to revise how to say the words and to prepare them for the test.
This is followed by the practice test. There are 2 levels, a simple level and a trickier level, In each case there are real and made-up words.
This is followed by recommendations on how to say each word. This is followed by the marking sheet.
These PowerPoints are fun, colourful and an easy way to practice the words either with a whole class or one by one with the students. It is also an excellent way for parents to practice with their children at home.
Make phonics testing fun... try this set of PowerPoints today!
I have found a way of making Maths revision a lot more fun. I have combined the official question papers and the official marking schemes into a single document. This means you can ask a question, the students show their answers on mini whiteboards and then as a class, you look at the official answers and look at what the students would have scored. As this is a whole class teaching activity, students can work in pairs or small teams and discuss their ideas and strategies together. This really reduces the level of stress as children are able to build on each others skills.
This teaching resource could be used in the classroom or at home. This teaching resource is a lot of fun and will make a difference to your students attitudes to maths. Keep Maths Fun!

Teachers need some fun to. This is my adult colouring book for teachers. You could print it out for your class to quietly colour during tests (when they have completed them to calm and relax them), or during long staff meetings - nothing is more relaxing and constructive than a little light colouring.
This is to encourage staff to have a little time every day to think and reflect and not work. This is my attempt at improving the good life balance of staff.
All these images were in the public domain. In the majority of the cases however, it took both a long time to find, then even longer to use editing software to sharpen and improve the images.
