The collection of short plays includes the Ancient Egyptians, Ancient Greeks, Romans, Middle Ages and The Renaissance. They are both fun and educational! I wrote them to use in class. The children really enjoyed dressing up and performing them for their classmates. The plays helped to reinforce what we have learned from past civilizations and different periods in time.

I decided to write this book in order to share some of the creative fun lessons, art activities and bulletin board ideas I have used during my many years teaching young children. The lessons can be used as set out, or as a guide along-side other curriculum. All the lessons, creative activities and displays are designed to reinforce the use of ‘Recycled Materials’. Creative teaching doesn’t have to be expensive! It is about knowing how to implement it, in order to get the most out of it. I hope you enjoy trying out the creative activities. You will be amazed at how much fun they are for you and the children, and how quickly they learn!

These lessons are designed to be interactive and fun. They include detailed lesson plans, creative activities and instructions on how to make displays, as well as different songs to sing. The activities are good for both native and non-native speakers of English. They can be used to enhance the topic you are teaching. You don’t need to buy materials, just recycle what you have!
