Whole-school understanding the world resources

Children can dream up any under-sea creature, treasure, relic, mystery, beauty or blight they like, to list and describe in these 3, ability-graded, creative-writing sheets. Writing inside the fascinating picture will draw them right into the ocean world, prompting adventurous, experimental language to express their knowledge and thoughts. Will embellish any related projects or events.

This richly illustrated creative writing sheet will engage your Reception and Year 1 emergent writers, triggering ideas about what could be under the sea, and encouraging adventurous descriptive language. Warm your class to the subject first, building ideas of what could be under the sea, and words for describing those items, including fish - the only given item here. Fish might be various colours and patterns (stripy, spotty), fast or slow, darting, dashing or twitching, scaly, shiny, twinkly, shimmering, or even quiet, peaceful, friendly or gentle.

Like most of my other resources there is material for discussion and debate or even just individual critical thinking. The resource addresses: slavery,Jim Crow,segregation,civil rights, women’s rights and the wealth gap. There are also some key dates that teachers can build knowledge on as background information and context. Students can explore the time period of the 60s and the pros and cons of living in that time period.

Every year, I keep getting asked if I am creating another quiz because everyone seems to love them. As we finish school on the 22nd of June this year, I have been able to get this one made during times when the kids are involved in end of year activities! I was lucky as it is so time consuming! The music round alone took me 4 hours to create and I was able to do it whilst kids were on a out of school visit! This will fill a full hour including the marking, but you must be tight on timing. I would suggest for each picture in the places round - 10 seconds. For the personalities round 2 minutes and for the wotz dat?? round 3 minutes maximum. The conundrum round should have no more than 10 minutes, but they should be able to do it in 5 as the focus is English punctuation and there are only so many forms of punctuation. The music round takes 15 minutes (video I have created). My quizzes usually prove to be very popular and the kids love them! Enjoy!

This Quiz is perfect for either ending or introducing the topic of the World Cup, especially as it is currently taking place. Contains 50 questions altogether, with 6 different rounds.

Includes simple ways to show the answers through buttons but also includes a button to allow you to return to the beginning of each round so you can show answers altogether rather than one by one. The rounds included within the quiz are: Past World Cups. World Cup Records. Who Am I? Picture Round. 2014 World Cup. 2018 World Cup.

Montessori 3-Part Cards of Invertebrates When creating this, I wanted a simple classification tool for introducing the classification of invertebrates. This set contains examples of one of each of six major groups of invertebrates. And because sometimes it’s easy to become confused as to just where the arthropods come in and what that involves, I’ve added a second set of cards just for classifying the arthropods.

Invertebrates - Montessori Matching Cards What child can resist the lure of the opportunity to carefully inspect a worm in a puddle after a storm? Or chasing a butterfly with outstretched arms? What child can resist the lure of an opportunity for careful inspection of a worm in a puddle after a storm? Or chasing a butterfly with outstretched arms? These real-life photo cards give children a simple introduction to the world of invertebrates by matching, playing games and talking about six of the major groups. But that’s not all! I’ve also made a second set of cards just for the arthropods. There are so many of them and it’s confusing, sometimes, to sort them all out! Not just for a Montessori classroom, this work is a great addition to any unit when the topic is animals without backbones.
