These engaging posters have hand-picked quotes from the inspirational Eleanor Roosevelt (the wife of FDR, American President 1933-1945). She is responsible for quotes like ‘Absence makes the heart grow fonder’ and ‘Today is a gift and that is why it is called the present.’ These posters have specially selected quotes that should resonate with younger children in the primary classroom. They could be used as a display around a growth mindset or as part of a larger project about Eleanor or building resilience.

The pack can be used as table top cards for a general display or can be used as a targeted intervention. They could form part of a daily routine, such as the ‘3 good things that happened today’ sheet at the end of each school day or a chosen meditation before lunch each day or they can be used when you feel the class or an individual needs it. They have been made colourful and engaging to encourage use by small children within the primary classroom. These are skills for life not just for school!

A comprehensive collection of events that school leaders, home schoolers or just interested parents can use to celebrate cultural, religious, charity and appreciation days. There are also some useful competition dates for story writing and poetry. The religious celebrations have a key - B Buddhism, S Sikhism, I Islam and J Jewish. Some Christian celebrations are embedded within our secular calendar so have not been highlighted as religious but this can be used as a learning opportunity. The Solstices and Equinoxes have been highlighted too. This could support learning in astronomy, history and nature. A great resource that you can use any way you see fit.

A colourful and engaging set of times table posters. Each poster has a multi-sensory strategy for learning that times table with an extension task for creating a poster using the given strategy so the facts can be learnt by heart or given a memorable way to support skip counting. Not only are they great for SEND children to learn some difficult maths facts but they are colourful and bright and would make any classroom look amazing and raise the profile of maths in your class.

These colourful and engaging sheets offer children a chance to stop and think about how they are feeling. The first question asks them to identify an emotion they are feeling and is followed by having to identify what it looks like on a face. For those children that are learning to read emotional and social cues this can be invaluable training. For those learning to recognise emotional triggers, using these sheets daily as a morning task can support their growing awareness of themselves and their feelings. The sheets come in a multitude of genders, skins colours and hair styles so that you can find a fit for the child you are working with. A simple but really effective resource supporting our primary aged children as they try to make sense of themselves and the world around them.

These are fun activities to get your students talking. It is not always easy to start a conversation but these tasks are designed to initiate talk. The tasks are open-ended with no ‘right’ way to do them. The images show fun drawing such as ‘What is on your toast?’.

They can be used as whole class ice breakers or for a single child in need of a chat. A great set of 16 activities to initiate talk and have fun. For any teacher or adult in school that want to know more about the children they teach.

A powerpoint containing a range of useful ideas for monitoring and feedback, aimed at maths subjects leads but can be applied to any subject. It is for subject leads who want to motivate and empower staff to reflect on their practice and find their own way forward. It provides some good practice in collaborative planning and some ideas for feedback without value judgements. There are also slides offering advice on where to find support for staff who need development. I have offered suggestions as to websites and orgaisations that might be useful for maths leads and there are some quotes and posters from experts in the field of education and business that can be used as mantras to develop your role around. A great starting point for subject leads who want to create a positive and inspiring atmosphere for colleagues.

A set of 8 mantras to support leaders to create a respectful and cooperative environment. Taken from the perspective of a classroom teacher who has seen the good, the bad and the down right ugly. They are the lessons I have learnt where leaders, heads and managers can make easy changes to win the trust and respect of their staff. Once that respect is achieved, it becomes a sted-fast loyalty and you have a school that shares the load and works together. Through my experience, this open, honest and cooperative environment can be the difference between a Requires Improvement inspection and a Good one.
