Are you teaching about different types of toys? Are you looking at different materials? Are you looking for visual resources to support your teaching? I have collected 30 high quality photos of modern day toys.
This pack contains a 31 Teaching Activity Teacher Guide using these photo flash cards. These activities are quick and fun to do and will improve both your students' memory and vocabulary skills.
You could look at it directly as a presentation and discuss the different materials being used in each of the toys.
You could print off and laminate the photos to make an interesting, eye-catching display about Modern Toys.
The students could also take the laminated photos and sort them into different types of toys. The students can then discuss which ones they have at home, which they would like to have at home and which they don't like and why.
The photos could also be used as prompts for creative writing, factual writing or descriptive writing.
I love to work through SATs papers are part of my revision program. These two PowerPoints are designed for whole class interaction. All the students need are some whiteboards. Each question is immediately followed by its answer.
This has lots of motivational and organisational benefits. The first is the students get immediate feedback on their ideas and misconceptions, without needing to wait until the end of a test. It also means different students can explain each of their solving strategies to the class and help everyone become more effective learners.
As the answers are straight after the questions, it is possible to simply use these PowerPoints for 5 minutes a day and still get the full benefit as all the questions are immediately solved. This is also a nice way of tutoring students at home. The tutor can then focus on the areas the students to need to work harder in.
I have created a nice PowerPoint explaining how people commit suicide and how others could help them to choose a different path. There are role plays, movie clips and discussions.
Are you covering Greek, Roman and Norse Myths with your students? Are you looking for some images to support them? I have collected together 31 different images which would make an excellent starting point for discussions about this topic.

Welcome to the Let’s Write in Gujarati! pack.
There are lots of ways of using this teaching pack. It could be used as writing assessment for students learning Gujarati. The students could write about a topic in Gujarati before starting a unit, and then write again about the topic, using the second worksheet at the end of the topic to see how much they have progressed.
It could also be used as an introduction to guided writing. Students can write sentences as a class and share the sentences together and they can then write them on their own. Alternatively, students could work in pairs - one student dictates to the other what to write down about what they see in the picture.
These pages could also be used to write different stories, using the pictures as a stimulus.
This set of worksheets focuses on how Jack and Granny feel in Jack and the FlumFlum tree. The children examine how granny feels at sending her grandson to get her some medicine, and also two worksheets on how Jack feels. In one, they match the feeling to the story, while in the other, they draw Jack's face at different time and think of a adjective to describe him.
I would love some comments from people who have used this in the classroom.

I love to revise grammar. I don't like needing to constantly refer between the answers and the questions to get the most out of each lesson. I decided the simplest thing was to simply combine the question paper and the marking schemes into a single document. The idea is simple - you ask a question - the children then show their answers and then you check the answers as a class against the official marking scheme answers.
This helps to keep revision fun and the lessons snappy.
Let me know what you think of them!
Welcome to the 'Let’s Talk in Russian!' pack.
This set of cards looks at 57 different settings. The teacher describes something in the top card. The students then use this to model a sentence using the bottom set of pictures. There are lots of things to see and describe in every picture. When the students have completed this task, they can repeat it by working in pairs to discuss each picture.
There are lots of different ways you could use this pack. You could laminate them into two cards and get each student to talk about what they had seen in their picture.

Welcome to the second English ESL book. Like the first one, it’s packed full of worksheets that can be photocopied freely for use in the classroom, as well as being an ideal tool for students to work through at home. We’ve included resources that test grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, spelling and speaking & listening skills. A huge variety of material that we hope will be fun to use and really helpful, whether you are at school or at home. A big thank you must go to all the students who have tried and tested these resources in the classroom prior to us producing the book!
While the first book (https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/60-entry-level-grammar-worksheets-for-english-lessons-and-esl-with-answers-11156436) was aimed primarily at Entry Level students, this one is aimed at higher level students, either Intermediate Level or Level 1 (ESOL
Core Curriculum), depending on how you choose to label them. There are also a few worksheets for practising more basic skills, such as the two Writing Skills worksheets. However, most of the material reflects the higher level, and will provide a wealth of stimulating lessons for students who are starting to become more independent in their learning.
With this in mind we have included a brand new section - Test Your Research Skills. Here you will find quizzes on a range of topics that require students to go and do some research, using a library facility, encyclopaedia (whether in CD Rom or old fashioned book form!), or even the internet...
