This resource has been made for the children to access independently during child initiated time. They can watch the Numberblocks number 5 song on the first slide and then they have a selection of slides which show the number 5 or other numbers. The children need to answer the questions - Is this 5? The children need to click on the yes or no to answer the question and then they are shown if they are right or wrong. If they are wrong, the slide will go back to the question so they can try it again. There are lots of variations of how to represent 5: Dice Fingers Ten Frames Numicon And this material is supported with Numberblocks throughout the slides.

This powerpoint/indpendent game matches the resource I made with bottle tops. The idea is that the child has to click on the correct letter sounds to make a CVC word. The powerpoint is set up to tell them if they got it wrong (a goalie saves the kick) or right, when the ball is kicked into the goal. Words like red, nan, bad are used for the words that are all phase 2 words. Children can access this resource independently and is great for anyone who loves football. Reading is a ‘silent’ process for many children. When first learning they do not possess the ability to imagine what the written word is telling us. They have many, many other skills they have to master before they can get there. This resource is aimed at beginner readers to try and put some fun into reading and creating words. The picture cards are double should be double backed so they have a picture on one side that they can make a word to match it or they have the actual word they can copy. With a picture to help young children visualise what they are reading, they have a purpose to reading it too and not just going through the motions. This resource is designed to be used independently, but can obviously be used as a teaching aid too.

It has sound buttons underneath to help them and they are mostly CVC words. When they have read the word, they should click on the picture that matches the word. The powerpoint will tell them if they get it right or wrong so they can do this independently or with yourself as guided reading. I made a lot of resources for traditional tales that can be printed off and laminated. Then the idea was for the children in my class to access these independently, either by using pegs to match the answers or other ways to work out the answer like using bottle tops with letters wrote on them.

It is important for young children to have reading material that they can use and read. This booklet is designed for young children to read independently. With this in mind I have not used Capital letters unless they look like the lower case version. The sentences used are very simple and repetitive, Starting with ‘Duck can …’ . To use the resource, I printed it all out, then laminated it before making it into a booklet.

Children love Alphablocks and they are an amazing program that really does help little ones understand phonics and helps them on their initial journey on how to read. I created all these resources to be used in my class when they start in reception. The idea behind this resource is to allow children to read the CVC word in the middle of the card. When they have done that, they choose one of the eight pictures around the outside and should put a peg on the correct picture. This shows understanding of what they have read but also helps with their fine motor skills, which in turn will help when they are ready to write. Reading is a ‘silent’ process for many children.

Children love Alphablocks and they are an amazing program that really does help little ones understand phonics and helps them on their initial journey on how to read. This resource was made using word families because that will help hearing the different sounds and therefore help with initial reading of CVC words. It is also good for children to hear different intial sounds. It is important to include pictures with each word too so they can link words to real life objects. Once laminated, velcro needs adding to the dots so the Alphablocks can be stuck down. The children can then move these initial sounds infront of the picture of the middle and end sounds to make a word. They can then read it and match it to the pictures. Word families included are: at, ad, et, en, in, ig, ot, og, ug, un. Reading is a ‘silent’ process for many children.

The best way for young children to understand numbers is for them to ‘play with maths’. This means using lots of concrete resources until they have a true understanding of our number system. Without this vital step, children will not be able to visualise maths and therefore will struggle later on when dealing with abstract maths. The next step is for children to use what they have learnt with picturial representations. This still enables them to visualise the maths without being able to ‘play with it’. This powerpoint will fit within the pictorial element of the process. Saying that, it is also a lot of fun for children to play the games and experience Numicon in a different way. Children are expected to click on the number (out of three options) that matches the Numicon shown. It them shows them if they are right or wrong. The powerpoint is fitted with a Paw Patrol theme as my daughter and current class love them but as it is powerpoint you can change this to fit any theme your children love.

It is important for young children to have reading material that they can use and read. This booklet is designed for young children to read independently. With this in mind I have not used Capital letters unless they look like the lower case version. The sentences used are very simple and repetitive, Starting with ‘She can …’ . With adult support this booklet can be used to talk about right from wrong. Each picture and sentence has a smiley face and a sad face so you can talk to your child about good decisions and bad ones. Is she bad? To use the resource, I printed it all out, then laminated it before making it into a booklet.

This resource is exactly the same as the one you can print off using pegs to indicate the correct word to match the picture, but it is for use on the interactive whiteboard. Again, children can access this independently as it does say when you have the wrong answer or it can be used to model the printed version. All they need to do is click on the correct bottle top to indicate which letter comes next in the CVC word. Each picture has three words and the child has to choose the correct one. The powerpoint indicates if they have the answer correct or not.

I did make this for my daughter so this resource has a Frozen theme to indicate which answers are right. This of course can be edited to suit your classes own interests, but I did like the GIFs of them cheering and laughing.

These resources were used to great effect. Each number has around 40 slides on the powerpoint, working everyday for around 5 minutes on a few slides. Monday: They start off recognising the number, counting movements or objects. Tuesday and Wednesday They then move onto recognising different ways to show the number using Ten Frames with a number of different pictorial representations. Thursday They then move onto recognising bigger and smaller numbers before going onto one more and one less. Friday They end the week with quick problem solving activities.

I have left on my Bitmoji clapping at the end of each word’s slides, this can of course be left or edited to put your own there or just take the slide out completely. It is a powerpoint that you can edit if you need.

You can edit this to any theme your class enjoy as it is a powerpoint so you can edit it anyway you want to.

This resource is for the children to use. The idea was that it would form a part of a display low down so they could access it. In my head it was for initial sounds work as there are words/pictures that are not CVC words on the spinners but I have tried to include as many CVC words as I could so if they are ready to read the words then they can have a go. The resource itself is basically two circles that you split pin together. If you cut the triangle out from the second circle it will allow you to see one of the triangle sections of the first. The split pin allows children to move it around so they can see one picture and associated word with it. It also shows capital letter form and lower case form of each letter.

When a child is learning to read it is important for them to blend each word individually. However, when children are doing this they can forget what they have read already. They have a lot to workout and remember so its only natural. A strategy we use is to ask the child to go back to the beginning of the sentence once they blend a word and read the sentence with fluency and therefore not blending. This is the only way they can remember what the sentence is. This resource is designed to see if they understand what they have read. A very simple sentence has three different pictures under it. They should read the sentence and then use a peg to indicate which picture matches the sentence. The peg idea is to aid their fine motor development and therefore help with handwriting.

I created all these resources to be used in my class when they start in reception. They range from initial sound activities to reading/making CVC words up to reading a simple phase 2 (Letters and sounds) sentence. Lots of these resources allow the child to match the sound or word to a picture. They have been created so the child uses a peg to show which picture is the answer. Using a peg to do this instead of just pointing to it also helps develop their fine motor skills, which in turn will help, when they are ready, to write. There are seven resources included in this bundle so its a saving of £2 if you want to take advantage of this. They are all designed to be used in the children’s enhanced learning time where they can access them independently to show you what their learning has been.

A great way for young children to learn how to read, to learn phonics is to manipulate letters and sounds. Here is a way to allow children to ‘play’ with sounds in order to make words. Early years teachers (Kindergarden) will be able to use this resource to see if children can spell words and read them. The idea here is to cut out the resource and fold it in half. Then laminate them. The extra part to this that you will need are bottle tops, where you have wrote letter sounds on the top. Once laminated, children can then use these bottle tops to place them on top of the circles to create simple CVC words that relate to Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

I created all these resources to be used in my class when they start in reception. The idea behind this resource is to allow children to read the CVC word in the middle of the card. When they have done that, they choose one of the eight pictures around the outside and should put a peg on the correct picture. This shows understanding of what they have read but also helps with their fine motor skills, which in turn will help when they are ready to write.
