Are you sick of over complicated scheme of work templates? Do you spend hours filling them in and then never look at them because the majority of information is simply unnecessary? I know I am. So here is The World’s Simplest Scheme of Work Template. It focusses on what is important, what you are going to do, and what the students are going to do. It is provided as a fully editable Word doc. It is only a small resource, but it has really revolutionised how we plan in my department. Of course we have all the detailed info on file, but for day to day use, this really works. It also streamlines the sharing of ideas between teachers.

This ingenious Powerpoint provides a subtraction sum generator for younger children. Simply click on the highlighted button and a random sum will appear. Give your students time to answer the question before clicking on the sum to reveal the answer. One more click on the answer returns you to the sum generator page. All sums use numbers from 1 to 9, making it suitable for younger children. Ideal for whole class mental math sessions. You can even edit the resource to input your own choice of sums. I am happy to answer any questions on this resource and explain how to edit it if you wish to do so. Please feel free to contact me through the TES site or by email at maelmatthews@gmail.com.

Many children and adults suffer from stress and anxiety at times. Going back to school is one of those stressful times. An over busy brain makes it difficult to concentrate on tasks and the feelings associated with anxiety can cause distress and further anxiety. Recent research suggests that activities which focus the mind without being overly taxing can help break the cycle of worry and anxiety and can help calm the busy mind. One such activity is coloring. This resource provides 40 original kaleidoscopic images. The repetitive nature of the patterns is intentional, encouraging the individual to settle into a calming routine. Drawings range in complexity, making it a suitable resource for all age groups, including adults. I hope that enjoyment and a sense of calm can be found by using this resource.
