This resource pack contains two booklets- the life cycle of a chick and the life cycle of an emperor penguin. They would be most suitable for upper KS1 or lower KS2, depending on the ability of your class. Both include literacy and WAU (science, history, geography in NI Curriculum) crosscurricular links.

This resource would be perfect to introduce centimetres and metres to KS1 pupils. It includes different images and children are asked if they would use centimetres or metres to measure the weight of it. I would suggest that each child uses fans, flashcards or simply a whiteboard so they can all take part. I promise you they will love it!

I use this on zoom calls at the start of each lesson, especially for younger children and refer back to them throughout the lesson if needs be. It really does work wonders! Rules consist of: sit nicely in your chair, put your hand up before you speak, don’t talk while others are talking, listen to others, have respect and have fun. English medium version also available.

In this resource, you will find a large coloured function machine that could be used by the teacher to model the activity. I have printed and laminated this as an A3 sheet and attach to the whiteboard using bluetack. You will also find a set of smaller function machines that can be used by the children. They are black and white so the children can decorate them themselves and to save ink.
