A powerpoint presentation for the game Words Within Words for children to play as a starter or plenary activity.

A simple worksheet requiring children to consider whether each statement is indeed a Fact, or an Opinion.

A spin on the classic beetle drive game. Children take it in turns rolling a dice until they have successfully built or drawn their snowman. You can either ask children to get a 1 (the body) as their first piece (making it a bit more challenging!), or you can have them get any item to start building. The winner of the game is the one you completes a full snowman first. I have included the main sheet for the game, as well as different parts of the snowman that can be cut and laminated if children would prefer to physically build their snowmen.

A cloze passage worksheet requiring children to fill in the missing words.

I use these in writing lessons to help children peer assess each other on each strand of VCOP. Children are them prompted to provide a next step for their learning partner.

A useful word search to help children identify different vocabulary associated with Skara Brae.

This worksheet is designed to help children understand the links between fractions that are written, pictorial and on a number line. Easy to read to maths rotations and independent work. The worksheet contains an additional extension challenge at the end encouraging children to think of equivalences and design a poster to show what they know.

Have a pizza party in the classroom! This worksheet will help children become more familiar with fractions as they work to design their perfect pizza! Children can draw their desired toppings and decide how much of the fraction will be covered by each ingredient. You can then encourage them to write their recipe on the back of the sheet (e.g My Pizza has 2/8 mushrooms…)

2 worksheets covering matching numbers (numerals) to their word forms. Each sheet contains a mix of numbers from 1-10, which children need to draw a line to match the pairs.

A quick and easy to do end of week review sheet. I have used these with all ages as an end-of-week activity to prompt discussion and reflection on the activities that week. Children would fill in one side and decorated the other with a picture of what they had done or achieved. This provided a nice school-home link as children would take their completed cards home to their parents.

A worksheet aimed to assist children in their learning about the phonics sound ‘or’. Children need to first read the word before rewriting it on the blue line. A small picture can then be drawn to illustrate the word. The last section asks children to choose one of the or words to write into a sentence.

A worksheet aimed to assist children in their learning about the phonics sound ‘ar’. Children need to first read the word before rewriting it on the blue line. A small picture can then be drawn to illustrate the word. The last section asks children to choose one of the ar words to write into a sentence.

A worksheet aimed to assist children in their learning about the phonics sound ‘ai’. Children need to first read the word before rewriting it on the blue line. A small picture can then be drawn to illustrate the word. The last section asks children to choose one of the ai words to write into a sentence.

Some activities to help children explore and understand rotational symmetry with familiar 2D shapes. Included in this resource is: Rotational Symmetry Worksheet featuring 2 circle protractors and a grid for children to complete the shape name, angle of rotation and order of rotational. Children will also need the Rotational Shapes Sheet to cut out and attach to their protractors with a split pin. We used black shapes and glued these to the sheets before using a coloured set to rotate on the pin. These sheets are available in white, black and coloured. If you don’t want to print these, children could trace around a set of shapes you have in the classroom. Children rotate the shape to measure the angle of rotation and work out how many rotations can be completed to bring the shape to its original position. To follow this, is the Blank Circle Template, which children can use to create their own circular rotational pattern.

Print and laminate these role cards to help guide you pupils facilitate effective discussions with peers. Based on the Oracy framework, these cards each relate to a role the child can take in the discussion, providing useful sentence stems to help structure conversation.

A set of 4 jungle themed bookmarks for children to colour in. Print on cardstock and laminate for durability.

A worksheet to help children utilise their research skills to find out some key facts about some of the many artefacts found at Skara Brae. I had my class find out what the items were made of as a priority, plus any other details they might find.
