I use this template for my ‘spellings of the week’ display which I put on a light box! Cut along the lines, laminate if you wish (works without) and slide into a standard sized light box. Really effective and the children love it! :-)

I made this Spider Man phonics game to support some of the children in my class with certain sounds. The PDF attached is a game for the sounds ‘oo’ and 'ar’. I downloaded and used different fonts which you can see on the PDF version. However, this font may not be available on all laptops, so I have also attached an editable Word version of the game. The cliparts, letters and fonts can be changed easily to support different sounds.

Focus on using full sentences with adjectives. - describing the characters from the story - changing the characters

I have made a little year book for my reception class for one of their end of year gifts. I have filled it with photos from throughout the year and some selfies from the beginning and end of the year. There is a 'what my teachers first thought of me' page and a 'what my teachers think of me now'. There are also a few more pages added about what group they were in and what their favourite moment in Early Years was. On the first page I have put a picture of our class pet! (We call our reception class Early Years! :-))
