I made this to use in assembly so children would have an idea of where the whole St Valentine’s celebration came from.You could just as easily use on IWB in class. I make no claims for authenticity, this is info I gleaned from internet searches and made into a very basic story for younger children. Hope it’s useful. updated with spelling corrected oops!

I made this for St George's day Assembly and as a class intro to pictures telling a story (Uccello's St George). All pictures from web (thank you) and story gleaned from various sources. &'Typos&'; noted by those kind enough to feedback and corrected. Older children might wish to explore the links with other countries and ...the Euros are just around the corner.

I made this for KS1 as a follow up to the Chinese New year story. It gave an opportunity to make comparisons with Christmas celebrations and obviously led to a range of creative activities.

I made this very simple version for younger children. All pictures from internet (thank you) You could use this as a starting point for discussion or an assembly. Knock out the last page if you want it for use during BHM.

I made this to use in assembly and in class. Lots opportunities for lang, mask making, ordinal number etc. You can follow up with How Chinese New Year is celebrated p.point Hope its useful.

I put a load of ideas together that could be used in the EY and maybe some in KS1 for the Diamond jubilee celebrations. The powerpoint has nursery rhyme, royal portrait then and now, stamps and money images which can be used as starting points for discussion. Enjoy!

Introduction to super hero week. What makes them special? Word document gives background information. This is a fantastic topic for getting boys into recording. I made Super Hero words as a phonics activity and for fun. You can print off the pages, laminate and you've got a book. I downloaded Super hero theme music too. Ask your children to tidy the classroom like Power Rangers, crank up the volume, the results will amaze you!

I made this to go with the sand and water activity ideas bank. Ideas Ive used at nursery and found on TES (thank you) pulled together to make, I hope, a working document that can be added to.

I made this to have a pool (sorry) of ideas handy for different water activities. The observation opportunities give some intervention and extension ideas and could be used when planning. I hope it's a working document that can be added to and would appreciate feedback.

I couldn't find a basic story of Thomas Becket but wanted to get across how words said in anger are often regretted. I put this together using what pictures I could find on the web (thank you). Used in Yr 2 Castle Topic.

How to engage children who are fascinated by superheroes. I made this to encompass particular fave heroes but easy to add or edit to include Ben 10 etc. Activity goes from counting to find the numeral (sorry about the 4 I use a different font at work which wouldnt upload) '...and if there was 1 more....? to combining sets. Enjoy!

Sometimes it's hard to think of different sand activities so I wanted an easy reference on hand. I also wanted it to inform and/or support observers and students so they would know the kind of learning opportunities 'sand play&' offered across the areas of learning. I didn&';t want it to be a lengthy document just practical. I'm doing another on water play and builders tray activities and would appreciate any feedback.

Click on a door a day - or just click. each door reveals an animation. Animations can be a discussion point for religious v secular, a memory game (because you have to start anew each time). I made this to use with KS1 but older children could make their own variations. Enjoy!

I made this years ago for use in Year 1 during a plant/growing topic. Children can predict verbally or write down before you click to reveal the answer. Its probably too long for early years ,I'd edit a lot out but might fill a little story space.

I made this for a colleague who had to teach Year 1 children the creation story and couldnt find a simple text to use. She was very happy with it. The children split ingroups to illustrate different stages. The people and animals slide will hold attention if not strictly accurate- but hey....

Simple counting activity. Very basic vocab enables children to join in reading speech bubbles. Last page gives children the opportunity to estimate. Lots of potential observations as children talk about their birthdays.

I just wanted to make a simple version of the Easter story for young children.

I made this to use on an IWB during a YR topic on nursery rhymes. I put the kitchen sink in! Counting beyond 20, discriminating sounds (they loved) counting money. There were many opportunities in all areas of learning. I would be happy to supply details and other ppts i have made.

I made this to use in the nursery to raise status of significant black authors, personalities that v young children might be familiar with. I just laminated them stuck magnetic tape on the back for children to match pairs. It provided a starting point for discussion and I had the stories to hand to read. The activity could be adapted for any keystage really and include a greater variety of Black History makers.

First powerpoint: just click away and the fireworks will appear for the children to count. Second powerpoint: I printed off these sheets. Enlarged to A3 and laminated. I cut v. closely round the fireworks (that takes a while) . Children then made their own placing and arranging firework pictures using tweezers. Each picture was unique and photographed for display. Easy!

Very basic p point to outline features of game ready for kick off. Lots of talking points which can be related to home/school experiences. role of referee, sanctions etc. also physical activity. Enjoy!
