A letter with highlighted sections to edit to suit you. I have used this particular format many times and parents are usually supportive. I would normally try to phone the parent first but that is my personal preference.

A resource sheet to help students respond to feedback using ‘ROAR’. If you wish to change the background on this, go into view and slide master. Please leave a review :)

This was originally made during lockdown learning - a lot had appeared online - most made with google classroom importing images which seems to take forever. My school doesn’t use Google so I have done one using Microsoft. This is a PowerPoint with a couple of common classroom furniture items drawn out on the slides that you can use to create your virtual classroom. It is also easy to then add in your Bitmoji. My example is left on there just to show how I made my own. Please leave a review if you download.

A resource to put into IKEA Tolsby frames for children to have on their desks.It is designed to be printed and trimmed to fit the frames themselves. Originally a COVID-19 safety sign that I used in my classroom when the children returned to school. I have included my example as well as an editable format. Done on PowerPoint.

A letter more tailored for poor behaving/performing students in KS4/5. I have also used this many times and have rarely had no support from parents. Appropriate letter what ever subject, but reads as if it is from a coursework based subject.

Teacher Standard Bookmark for A4 sized planners. Useful for any NQTs or ECTs as a quick reference when planning. PowerPoint included incase you wish to personalise the font or colour scheme to match classroom/planner/stationery. UPDATED with newer backgrounds.

A poster resource for classrooms to stretch and challenge students when they rush any classwork. Could be done bookmark size or maybe as a ‘grab’ sheet. Suitable for all ages.

Pot Labels that fit the IKEA Sunnersta Pots. Also included is a sign for the wall. Labels are to size so when printing, set paper to print at A3 and multiple slides to sheet so that they all print to the right size. They can be glued directly on or laminated first. Example picture included.

An Excel teacher planner with the 2024-2025 Term Dates on and a column per class. You may need to tweak these to fit your school and colour scheme. I use this document alongside my written planner to keep me on top of things. There is also space to add on calendar events, assessment dates and after school activities. Please leave a review :)

A sheet I created when I was a technician many years ago! Just updated to look a little more ‘snazzy’ and to include some Art words as my department is Art Design Technology merged.

This letter is designed to give parents nad guardians advice around the GCSE Design and Technology NEA for AQA. It could be re-worded to work with any examination board as well as any qualification. If you download, please leave a review. Thank you! :)

A template for teaching staff to effectively RAG audit and evidence curriculums in preperation for OFSTED and Deep Dives.

Loyalty Cards for use with classes. Can be customised to suit subject/reward etc. and can also have pictures added on. I have used these primarily with low ability groups for a bit of motivation which worked really well. They do inspire a bit of enthusiasm when used. Adobe and PowerPoint files included, both with an example of my personal loyalty cards on. Price to reflect effort it took to produce the original file.

Reward cards for students that are ‘scratchable’ (or could be chosen from a box blindly). Examples included. When printing, scale slides on the PowerPoint document and fit to page for the Illustrator file. Personally I favour the Illustrator file. The ‘scratchable’ part measures 25mm x 25mm with the stickers being able to be bought from ebay for next to nothing. Adds a cool exiting part to the reward. I like to put certain Bitmojis with certain rewards, so I can tell which is which without scratching. It also means you could potentially give certain rewards to some e.g. the homework pass to someone who regularly completes it, not to someone who doesn’t.

A worksheet or poster for Maths in Design Technology - good cross curricular link.

A quick sheet made for a mid-low ability Year 8 group. I made this so they can get it out each lesson to help them but also so it wasn’t me continually speaking all lesson. PDF included for speed of printing. PowerPoint included in case any edits need to be made for your students

Table centre pictures for equipment pots etc. Each one with a famous designer (AQA specification) with some products they have designed, description of themselves and a famous quote. I have used them for the table centres as well as an information finding activity. Could be permanently attached to a particular desk or move pots around so the children learn something new about a different person each time. Fully customisable with colour, font etc. Price to reflect time and effort it took to produce the resource.

Resource with Growth Mindset quotes on for table centres. Each one has a different saying on with an equipment list on the other so you can print double sided. Fully customisable with colour font etc. I have used them on my equipment pots which I place in the centre of the table. There is is a few of them so price to reflect effort and time took to produce.

Bookmarks for student reading books or planners - a nice form activity regardless of age range. One side has inspiration quotes on them, the other is blank for a name. All are set to print double sided for ease with the fonts embedded into the file. If you go onto slide master after downloading, you will be able to change the background image.

A help sheet with space for samples of sandpaper to be stuck on. This help sheet was made with a low ability un-resilient group in mind but could be adapted to suit any. There is a side showing/explaining sandpaper. On the other side are the common excuses or reasons I get for not completing work to standard or ‘complaining’ after 5 minutes graft… There are also the tips I give to students to maximise the results when they are sanding by hand.
