E-Safety. Home / School agreement. Primary school.

E-Safety. Home / School agreement. Primary school.

(1)
A document for parents and pupils to sign. Invaluable for E-Safety and security. Editable as I have included my word version of the document. Has gone down well with many schools. This is a snippet from the top of the document... Parents / Carers play a crucial role in ensuring that their children understand the need to use the internet / mobile devices in an appropriate way. Research shows that many parents and carers do not fully understand the issues and are less experienced in the use of ICT than their children. The school will therefore take every opportunity to help parents understand these issues through parents’ evenings, newsletters, letters, website / VLE and information about national / local e-safety campaigns / literature. This agreement is aimed at fostering that approach. Invaluable and guaranteed to save you time.

PART ONE of TWO As this is the first time I have shared content in this format (of which I prefer) I am offering a 75% price reduction for a very limited time! Please note this is 15 YEARS worth of Keynotes made on the mac originally for years 3 and 4 although many have been used in older classes and are easily adaptable. INVALUABLE for anyone with a Mac that uses it for teaching as these are VERY hard to find. (Why I had to make them as I much prefer Keynote.) These took many many hours to make individually. Many incorporate videos and animations within them and some have been used to achieve outstanding observations. For a MacBook / Apple user these are fantastic and many should work on iPad too with Keynote. (Although one or two of the animations may be different and I can't 100% promise all will be formatted perfectly from experience.) Keynotes ages 7-10 - A Massive collection of presentations I have made. Most are self explanatory but have written a few notes of description for some them below to help. Will save Apple users absolutely tonnes of time as I myself use many of these when I go into schools. You really are getting a lot here believe me. Please note these will NOT work on windows computers (PowerPoint) without conversion although an excellent site to convert these files is https://cloudconvert.com/key-to-ppt I have included this particular resource mainly for Apple users.

Pub Quiz - General Knowledge and Picture Round (New £20 Note) - Tutor Time - 22nd Feb, 2020

Pub Quiz - General Knowledge and Picture Round (New £20 Note) - Tutor Time - 22nd Feb, 2020

(1)
This Quiz is professionally written by ‘The Quizinator’ and is of extremely high quality. I am an experienced Quiz writer and presenter that decided to spread my tried and tested winning formula to others. They are ideal, for a one off event or regular use. If you are presenting a quiz I understand how meticulously researched well phrased questions and answers can help the cause. Each quiz is structured to start easy and get progressively harder (a difficult skill to approximate, after all a question is easy when you know it!) This will give teams with more knowledge a greater challenge near the end. The picture round of this quiz includes a professionally formatted image of the ‘new’ £20 note where players are required to identify the person and then 9 celebrities to identify inside fake £20 notes. Each quiz contains 30 questions of increasing difficulty and an additional tie-breaker, if required. Questions 1 - 10: Easier questions designed to give your teams some confidence and even raise some laughs. Questions 11 - 20: Medium difficulty questions, some of these may include a multiple choice element. Questions 21 - 25: Harder questions which teams will find much more challenging. Questions 26 - 30: ‘The Wipeout Round’ or ‘Double or Quits’. It is suggested that in this section, you inform teams that each question is worth 2 points, however if one question is answered incorrectly the team ‘wipes-out’ and scores no points for the round, questions can however be missed out with no penalty (just receiving no points for that particular question.) Usually these quizzes are £2 per Quiz and £1 per-picture round on the website www.quizinators.com https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B084Q9YHLB?pf_rd_p=f20e70b1-67f9-48d1-8c78-ba616030b420&pf_rd_r=SPHQ3AFJ1CEB3S1DWXCB (Quiz Book on Amazon.)

An interactive Smartboard file I made for year 3/4 for an observation lesson. Tries to get across the idea that knowing the rules for odd and even can inherently help you check your answers! Actually used this again yesterday in a class in Lancashire, worked really well. -Lesson plan -Presentation -Worksheet
