New Zealand Essential Spelling Words - 'Unscramble it' mats
A fun, interactive activity for your students to practise their spelling words.
Print and laminate the mats. Students use alphabet letters such as magnetic letters, scrabble tiles, letters written on milk bottle lids or pieces of card. They gather the letters they need and manipulate them until they see the word.
Words used: NZ Essential Spelling Words lists 1-8 (list 8 = commonly misspelt words).
2 Different Formats:
♦ With a prompt – a dot under the starting letter
♦ Without a prompt
69 ‘Unscramble it’ mats in total
Just print the mats that suit the level of your students:
♦ List 1 – 2 mats
♦ List 2 – 4 mats
♦ List 3 – 6 mats
♦ List 4 – 10 mats
♦ List 5 – 10 mats
♦ List 6 - 14 mats
♦ List 7 – 12 mats
♦ List 8 – 11 mats
* This is the type of activity that your ‘hands-on learners’ will appreciate.
* Great for a learning station, early finisher activity, etc.
* This activity will reinforce both spelling and reading.
The font used is ‘NZ Basic Script’. The letter shapes are the same as those recommended in the NZ Ministry of Education Handbook – ‘Teaching Handwriting’.
5 words on each A4 page.
The level of each mat is written in the bottom right corner.
Answer sheets are not provided. If you can’t work out what the word is (particularly some of the longer words in list 7 and 8) just look at the starting letter and refer to a copy of the essential spelling list.
Please note that when making some of the longer words, the letter tiles will not fit in the allocated space on the page. These longer words will spread out onto the table/floor. Also, there are two words in List one that are only 1 letter long (a and I) so these will not require unscrambling.
The words are displayed in a different order to my other resource – Essential Spelling Words ‘Make it’ mats.

A fun, effective art activity for your students to complete and give to their mother on Mother’s Day.
It looks tricky …. but it is very simple! The artwork involves drawing a number of straight lines between the dots on a template. Your students will get a thrill when the curves just appear!
Included:
♦ dotty template.

♦ example of finished, coloured artwork.
♦ simple, clear instructions (with images).
I have provided 8 steps to complete the line art. Each step is on one page. The instructions are suitable for displaying via a data projector so all of your students can refer to it and self-check.

♦ Draw a stem, leaves, flower pot, etc.
♦ Write words/phrases in the petals that describe your Mother.
♦ Colour/decorate.
♦ Give to your Mother.
This activity is also suitable as a general art activity. You don’t have to use it for Mother’s Day.
Have a student that doesn’t celebrate Mother’s Day? No problem. They can make the flower and decorate it in a different way.
