Very simple pictorial bingo game based around characters from traditional tales. The teacher can make the clues as challenging or simple as necessary. Also useful for plenaries, mental starters or as a self-chosen activity when teaching traditional tales.
Two WAGOLLs for use when teaching Non-chronological reports to KS1.
Both are plain text examples that can be used to model the key features of reports. The texts can be used in a variety of ways:
- to introduce and explain the key features of a Non-chronological report
- as a starting point for children to plan their own reports
- as a reading activity to challenge children to retrieve information and vocabulary
The subject matter - witches and dragons - will engage and interest lots of children.

Lots of thought provoking maths challenges for children to complete. Ideal to have laminated and displayed in continuous provision/challenge areas. These can also make useful assessment tools.

It's been designed with three levels of challenge, with one pictorial version and two text versions. Ideal for an interactive and engaging starter activity in literacy lessons, or as part of continous provision.

This grid is a quick and easy way for children to jot down comparisons between different traditional tales. It can be used as a starting point/plan for longer pieces of writing. It has been designed for KS1 pupils.
5 examples of super funky VCOP lettering I designed. You can easily adapt the size of the lettering, or even right click and select 'edit text&' if you want to change it to say something else. Hope you all like it.
Weeky plan for simple descriptive writing based around Chicken Licken. This would probably be better suited to earlier on in the year as the model text and outcomes are very simple. In my plan I have tried to put a a big emphasis on orally composing and practising basic sentences in line with the new curriculum.
By the way, apologies for the fact that it is written in a black box! I can't seem to fix that.
