An information sheet and sunflower images aimed at year 2 pupils. Can be used as a guided or independent reading activity depending upon ability.

This is a set of vocabulary cards to be trimmed and laminated, enlarged/reduced if necessary. I use them in KS1 for children to develop awareness of their roles in society and the value of others, but they are very diverse. I created a shoebox of my personal belongings for chn to explore and decipher my roles in society. Chn can then discuss their own roles using these cards as a prompt. They can further use these flashcards as a point of reference when writing about themselves. Feel free to add, edit and enjoy. Please let me know if they work for you!

With a large focus on Wirral and Merseyside and images of local interest. Information courtesy of Prof Stephen Harding

An extraordinary tale about a cat who accompanied his owner on his duties as a Marine Air pilot. Article for children to read and discuss.

A simple powerpoint with ducks in a pond. Chn can estimate, count in tens and units, and can even use this for partitioning or rounding. Feel free to add, edit etc this was just used as a basic activity for my year 2s.

Set of bookmarks to give to children which outline the 'WILFs' of a good reader. My own resource - editable for your own WILFs. Please leave feedback comments - I am an NQT and I find constructive feedback beneficial - thank you.

Some images I have gathered to use for an Operation Christmas Child Display. Incomplete display but it may be of some use to you, or give some inspiration! Some images may need enlarging on A3 using the photocopier.
