Art, Graffiti Artists

(2)
These are the presentations I gave to my year 10/11 art students. These presentations were the source artwork and inspirations for their contemporary art pieces. The presentations include large scale images and videos of the artists*. There is also a review sheet for the students to make notes on for later reference. The presentations enabled us as a group to host large debates and discussions around the formal elements of the pieces. *All artwork used in the presentations are the artist own work!!!!!!

Home Routine

(0)
This document is used within school to support children at home with their morning/evening routines. I have given this resource to many parents who report back that it is very helpful at home. I have found that this document helps with attendance within school. The document is easily customised with colours, names and tasks. The document can be printed and mounted onto card and/or decorated by the child to enable ownership. *Requires counters to be made* I use small plastic counters from school with stickers.

A classroom environment is a dynamic environment where noise can creep up and become a distraction. As a teacher we need simple strategies that work; and here one is!

This noise chart included four clear levels: Level 0 - Silent work Level 1 - Partner voice Level 2 - Table voice Level 3 - Presenter voice Print nice and large and place in a prominent area; add some push button lights for added clarity and sparkle.
Introducing Restorative Practices in Schools

Introducing Restorative Practices in Schools

(0)
Restorative Approaches are somewhat new to schools, especially the primary sector. However, data already shows that Restorative Approaches reduce incidents of disruptive behaviour, reduce incidents of verbal abuse, reduce incidents of theft, reduce incidents of physical assault and reduce exclusions. It has also been found to increase attendance. These resources are designed to support the behaviour systems currently in place within schools, aid the learning from these systems (for all parties) and repair any harm that has taken place (both physical and emotional harm). The resources cover initial introductions for all staff, specific training for Low-High level responses (including handouts and an introduction to pedagogical ideals) and all school INSETS to support. The resources are supported through a whole school plan and risk management documents. Using these resources I introduced restorative practices across six primary schools within the academy I work. I utilised the expertise already in place within my pastoral teams and school SENCOs to support the delivery of this across two academic terms (Sept-March).

Behaviour Top Tips - one minute guide

(0)
I have pulled together my top tips for behaviour management in an easy to read format - my one minute guide (OMG). More top tips for behaviour management can be found in my shop. Effective behaviour management is based on a teacher‘s ability to successfully create a well-managed, structured classroom environment so that learning can occur. However, effective behaviour management is a tricky field to navigate.

Catch Me Being Good; Positive Reinforcement

Catch Me Being Good; Positive Reinforcement

(0)
This is a child led document designed to focus on the positive behaviours of a child, rather than focus on the negative. The initiative is the 'catch' the child doing well and record it for positive reinforcement/reflection. This has worked wonders in my school*, let me know how is goes for you. *We have a 'catch me being good badge' that accompany the document. Making it even easier to spot the students we need to focus on/praise.
Weekly target tracker for behaviour

Weekly target tracker for behaviour

(0)
This is a child facing document designed to engage the children daily on their targets. It is really simple to use and super clean/fun looking. Create a S.M.A.R.T target for the child (perhaps involve them in the decision making to add child buy in). Set an achievable target in the star (three times this week), and then put it in a place where the child can track it daily by circling the smiles. For added longevity, laminate the document and then you can draw/write on it forever!

Parents Late Slip
barthdbarthd

Parents Late Slip

(0)
As a school we found that a lot of our lateness was due to poor timekeeping from the parents. As an intervention to challenge this we created a 'Parents Late Slip'. The idea was to make dropping off a child late to school an inconvenience for the parent; hopefully reducing lateness! The document is used by ask each parent who brings their child late to school to complete the slip. In our school we have printed this out on red paper (makes the late slip look bad!!!) and always 'forget' to get it out ready (increasing the time it takes to complete it) I hope this works for your school!!

Daily reflection
barthdbarthd

Daily reflection

(0)
This document is used for a child to reflect on their learning attitude, behaviour and emotional wellbeing throughout the school day. This document has proved invaluable in nurturing children with little to no self confidence in school! The child should mark, periodically, where they are on the 'smile scale' throughout the school day enabling supportive reflection 1:1 with a member of staff. I often use a variety of open questions to enable the children to open up and talk about their emotional wellbeing and reinforce the positive aspects of the school day but reminding them, 'It is okay to feel sad'. I welcome any questions and welcome all feedback.

Challenge Card
barthdbarthd

Challenge Card

(0)
A document with the sole purpose of 'challenging' a child with a small S.M.A.R.T target to get them working above and beyond the normal expectations of the classroom. A reward is outlined at the bottom of each card. The card is designed to be kept by the child so the ownership is on them to achieve the 'challenge' and earn the reward. Three examples included: Example 1: Completely blank. Set them a challenge and outline a reward or EVEN BETTER 'challenge' the child to set their own target. Example 2: Suggested challenges. Don't forget to set a reward that the child would like to earn. Example 3: Challenges and rewards already set. Complete time saver with the whole emphasis put onto the child to take, complete and reward their own EPIC behaviour. Feedback appreciated.
The Golden Three

The Golden Three

(0)
This is a resource to use after a negative incident has occurred. The resource is designed to enable the child to understand and fix their mistakes. Work through the first worksheet and challenge the child to 'take responsibility' for their actions. The resource is broken into three simple steps: 1 - Apologise 2 - Ask what you can do to fix your mistake 3 - Do it! Continuous use of this resource will develop an understanding of reflective practise for children and empower them to learn a life skill. It is important that the child understands that we all make mistakes, it is our job to learn from them and make them better. Feedback appreciated.
