Set of eight vocabulary cards for use in electricity science lessons in upper and lower key stage two. Each card shows not only shows the word and symbol but also a picture of what the item looks like in ‘real life’ to help especially EAL and NTE children during these lessons.

8 homework sheets to practise addition and subtraction skills. Enough for the full half term when we cover addition and subtraction. They gradually get more challenging when given in the correct order: 1 and 2. addition without regrouping and another with regrouping. 3 and 4. subtraction without exchange and one with exchange. 5 and 6. use the inverse to find missing numbers. 7. pyramid problems where children must decide when to add/use the inverse. 8. word problems. answers are included with each worksheet

Year 1 and Year 2 common exception words on bricks- separate documents so if you only want to use one year group there is no need to sort them. In basic cursive font. I add these to my ‘Word Wall’ display gradually as more and more of the words are taught- the children love to watch the wall getting bigger! If these words are mis-spelled in children’s work, I direct them to the wall and they correct them independently.

Two step by step posters to explain the expanded column method of addition and subtraction in a simple and visual way. I found that they work well when printed on A3.

A big set of 40 arithmetic starters with answers for self or peer assessment. Perfect as maths starters or morning work. 3 difficulty levels: The first for children below expected or for expected/greater depth children to practise instant recall of number facts, the second if for expected ability and the third is aimed at developing the skills of greater depth children. These starters have lots of questions based on the following essential KS1 skills: Doubles and halves The four operations Number bonds to 10, 20 and 100 Using part-whole models. Missing number questions 1 more and less 10 more and less Writing numbers as words

Bundle of morning work mats aimed at year 2. 2 of the mats have space for a number to be written in the center by the teacher, then activities around the edge are based on this number (one is based on 3 digit numbers for HA children). This allows the mats to be used over and over again with different numbers. 2 of the mats have an amount of objects in the center with different word problems based on these objects around the edges. The other mat has SATs style number card questions on it. All mats are in word format and so numbers/questions can be easily edited to extend their use and allow for differentiation.

Lots of differentiated literacy challenges suitable for UKS2. Perfect as morning work, starters or time fillers. Each slide has 3 challenges. Challenge 1 asks children to find synonyms or antonyms of commonly over used words, challenge 2 looks at figurative language and challenge 3 asks that children write a short paragraph using a sentence opener and requests that they use a specific feature of writing taken from the UKS2 writing objectives. To differentiate, children could be asked to work from challenge 1-3, or they could be given a specific challenge to look at. They would also work well as homework tasks.

Display poster showing a range of animals that lay eggs. Animals are from different classification groups such as birds, fish, amphibians, reptiles and insects. Real photographs used on a natural hessian background. A good addition to an investigation area or to encourage discussion and generate questions.

20 bright and colourful fact cards about caterpillars and butterflies. I used these to set up a science investigation area in year 2 when we had caterpillars that we kept to observe and release as they turned into butterflies. (I also sell them in a bundle with matching display title bunting and key vocabulary) These cards concentrate on the things that children will notice while the caterpillars are in the classroom. They allow the children to find out about what they can see happening. These cards are also a geat resource for teachers and support staff to explain what is happening and answer any tricky questions that the children might ask!

‘Our Caterpillars’ bunting. The bunting has a green leaf background that will completment natural classrooms perfectly. I used this bunting to create an investigation area in year two when we got caterpillars in class. (I also sell this bunting as part of a bundle which also has matching caterpillar fat cards and key vocab cards.)

12 vocab cards for learning about caterpillars and butterflies. With a nice leaf design in the corner. I used these when setting up an investigation area in year two when we had class caterpillars! (I also sell these as part of a bundle which includes butterfly and caterpillar fact cards and display bunting.)
