This was used in a topic of setting descriptions for literacy. The children watch a video and brainstorm ideas and then use the planning format to plan a description of a setting. The sheets are differentiated and a flipchart is attached to support teaching.

This was used in a topic of setting for literacy. The children look at the picture and use the 4 senses and similes to describe it. Attached are the worksheets to support this and a flipchart to support teaching.

Attached is a flipchart with a series of activities and getting to know you tasks I use each year to get to know my new pupils better and try to build some team working within the week. This has been great for incorporating other areas of the curriculum within the activities for the first week. This is an excellent time saver as each day has pre-planned activities ready to be used with your class!

Attached is a full year’s worth of homework grids to use with your class. I give my class a grid every month with the tasks relevant to each month of year in Scotland. The children should then complete a literacy, numeracy and an other task each week. This is a total timesaver for me when planning homework now as they are all prepared in advance.

Attached is a series of home learning grids which can be applied to any primary 6 stage as would be accompanied by your own additional numeracy and literacy worksheets to suit. These have been excellent at providing my children with a breadth of the curriculum whilst still working at home. 6 week bundle of learning grids included.

This is a resource I made to use with the children on the first day/week of term. This can open up discussions around safe use of the internet and what is/isn’t acceptable to share with others and what you might share with your teacher and peers. A great way of getting to know your pupils better :)
