Hello! Thanks for viewing my shop. I've been teaching now for over 10 years and was a teaching assistant before that. I'm currently teaching Year 3/4 but have taught in EYFS, Year 1 and 2, & Yr 6. I've worn many hats during my teaching career and I'm now deputy head of a small but ever growing successful first school!
I love creating resources that can be used to capture and engage the children in my class that allow them to really enjoy their learning.Please get in touch and leave feedback!

This resource includes 4 games boards with coloured background and 4 without background so you can save toner when printing. I’ve also included some alien cards which you can use to plays snap or splat games etc.
simply ask the children to roll a die and then move their piece to the number rolled. if they can read the word then they land on it, if not they cannot.
Great for small groups or 1:2:1 sessions.
To increase the length of a game you could use die with only 3 numbers or join two boards together.
I hope that your class enjoy playing these boards.
This Minecraft Money activity allows the children to solve the items in each bag. This open ended challenge allows the children to come up with more than one possibility.
I hope this is useful.
Many thanks.
There are three roll and name picture game boards that allow your children to create their own pseudonyms names for the aliens. Great practice for the Phonics Screening Check!
Roll an alien name Boards 1 to 3 -
vowel split digraphs a_e, e_e, i_e, o_e & u_e all with varied initial blends to start the word.
Alien name race boards
Board 1 -vowel split digraphs a_e, e_e, i_e, o_e & u_e
Board 2 -vowel split digraphs a_e, e_e, i_e, o_e & u_e (easier version)
Board 3 - vowel digraphs ai, ea, ie, ow, ue
Board 4 - digraphs ar , au, ee, or & oe
If the children role a six then they can choose their sound to use to create the alien name.
EDITABLE VERSIONS INCLUDED
**How to play: **
Roll the dice. When it lands on a number look for the sound designated to that number, ask the children to write it on whiteboard and soundout. If correct they can stay on that square of game board. Continue rolling and creating anmes for every alien they land on. For additional rules see rules attached to this resource. Allow children to make up rules!
Can be played with 1 or 2 players. Race game can be up to 4 players. Use counters/objects/coins etc as player pieces.
I really hope that you and your children get a lot out of playing these games.
Any feedback is welcome as I’m always looking to improve resources to support teachers and children to achieve their potential.
Thanks
This resource includes an IWB presentation. Within the IWB there are set Q’s and tasks for the children to complete. It is designed to fit in with a mastery approach to learning with small low level tasks to begin and then complex greater depth Questions to finish.
I hope that you and your class find this resource useful.
Many thanks
I have included a pdf and word version (so you can edit to suit the needs of your class). There is also a smart board presentation to help demonstrate how to make different amounts using place value counters to help children bridge practical, concrete to abstarct situations.
There are 21 money questions that will allow your children to tackle money in different situations and concepts. These are designed to be used to allow your children to achieve greater depth by explaining their thinking and I would encourage your children to do so! I hope that these resources are useful and feel free to edit these to suit the needs of your class.
Many thanks!
I hope that you find this resource useful. I have differentiated it 3 ways. Even for the lower abilities I’ve included some questioning that will ask them to reason and explain their thinking, as showing greater depth can be included for all to try.
Many thanks
Attached are 6 differentiated strips of sometimes, always and never multiplication and division questions. There are 3 division and 3 multiplication.
Each one is editable. I have used them to show reasoning skills and show greater depth.
I hope your class enjoy using them as much as mine have.
Many thanks
This advent calender is great to add a bit of fun to problem solving and reasoning. It covers subtraction, addition, multiplication and division.
Simply click on each window on the calender and a problem for that day appears.
There are 23 problems.
Many have the answers and structures to model the answer.
I hope that this resource challenges your pupils. Feel free to adapt each problem to suit the needs of your class.
This resource structures persuasive writing for your whole class. I have used this resource for Year 3/4 but it can easily be adapted for year 5/6.
In the past I have used this a whole lesson and written each sentence as a class to really create an in depth piece of writing. I would ask the children for their ideas and they would collaboratively come up with ideas and then write down after sharing them with whole class.
I have also cut the sentence strips out and allowed my higher attaining pupils to play around with the structure.
This resource allows the lowers a structure to follow and the opportunity to write without worrying about content and structure.
I hope that you enjoy using this resource and that your children’s writing is wonderful!
Many thanks
This resource covers angles (geometry) in Year 3/4 ks2. The IWB presentation follows a mastery approach and starts with simple tasks and models that builds and scaffolds learning and ends with all children taking on greater depth questions.
I hope your class enjoy using this resource.
Many thanks
****This resource is 100% editable! This resource contains 14 weeks of activities. Each day includes 4 questions and builds upon prior knowledge - each week coincides with the White Rose Maths hub scheme of learning for place value, addition and subtraction. This resource will help your children build upon skills previously covered and allows them to practice and embed key Maths concepts/skills.
Included are 14 worksheets with 5 days worth of activity on each week with 4 Qs a day. 20 qs a week so that’s 280 questions!
The concept of revisiting prior learning is becoming more and more crucial to helping children attain and cement key skills. It’s a great way to achieve mastery and it’s proving to be a huge success within my class.
I keep them in a wallet and the children complete each day either in the morning during registration or when we get a minute! My colleague uses them and sticks them in her maths books in concertina style and the children unfold them when completing the correct day. I encourage my class to draw calculations, use resources, discuss concepts with one another.
I hope that this is really useful to you and would appreciate any feedback/reviews.
Thanks for purchasing!
Hi,
This resource is great for whole lessons. You can model writing a sustained piece and structure how to add depth and creativity to a paragraph/short/long piece of writing.
I’ve played around with how I use this presentation, here are some suggestions, and if you find better ways then please share your good practice.
1. Print slides and allow children to use as prompts for writing about a stimulus.
2. Show children stimulus and then do some talk for writing, than ask them to write sentence/paragraph 1 and then share with class. Repeat process for all 6 sentence types.
3. Print the slides and cut the strips up. Allow children to mix and match to create different structures.
I really hope that this resource is useful.
Many thanks
This resource includes:
1 worksheet on division
1 worksheet on negative numbers
2 worksheet on generic Year 6 arithmetic

This worksheet uses Minecraft to enthuse the children to learn position and movement. Some of the questions stretch the children by asking them to write instructions for a beebot and some q's have Minecraft objects that start in a diagonal position.
I hope your class enjoy using this resource.
Many thanks
I hope that these games/activities help making Phonics screening revision easier and more fun.
This resource includes game templates that you can edit.
Stop the crabs and read the words. The crabs move across the screen.
Matching games
Flick the billiard ball into the correct pocket.
Feel free to edit and make suitable for your pupil's needs.
Thanks
This worksheet contains 15 questions that allow the pupils to use their knowledge and skills in different scenarios. Feel free to adapt this worksheet to suit your children's needs.
Thanks, I hope they help.
The children love to be active during Phonic sessions. This activity can be adapted to any occasion/activity.
For example you could use it as a dart/arrow board or roll an object and see what word it lands on.
I have used it in trays or baskets and with many items that the children roll , e.g pebbles, die, small cubes, spinning tops to name a few.
This resource includes 5 pdfs which contain 4 boards each (20 in total).
They cover the split digraphs a_e e_e i_e o_e u_e and include real and nonsense words ( pseudonyms ).
This resource is editable.
I hope you and your class enjoy this activity as much as my class do.
Many thanks
Here are 3 game boards and one blank. You can edit any game board to suit the sound your focusing on. Hope your class enjoys them. Delete the backgrounds and turn off colour background to print out black and white versions.
Thanks.
This guide will help you to create your own Interactive White Board activities. If you have any comments on how to improve the guide or add to the activities then that would be great. Hope it helps.
I'm using these bookmarks to prompt and remind the children of our presentation expectations of our school.
You could place children's targets on back or just use them to remind the children what page they are on next (As at a young age they have a habit of missing pages out!)
I have attached the word doc so you can attach your school's feedback policy etc...and make it suit your needs.
Many thanks, hope you find this useful.
