English and Maths support
An A4 support sheet for children in maths and English.
Maths side - sentence stems to use for explanation tasks, multiplication square and 100 square.
English side - punctuation, capital letters, conjunctions, spellings, âbedâ support, alphabet
Both sides have some marking feedback tailored to my schoolâs marking policy.
This can be adapted to suit the needs of your class/school.
if you want the same fonts, Iâve used century gothic for the body of text and goldie rainbow for the titles.

Snowman fence tag
In my class, I give each child a length of wood. This is then cut to their height and decorated as a snowman (see photo example) which they get to take home and keep. Alongside this, we also attach a tag with a little slogan :)

Reading tokens
Tokens to encourage your class to read more! When children have finished their card, they can trade it in for a treat (for you to decide).

Number of the Week
An A4 activity sheet for maths. You choose a number for the week and children have to fill in the relevant information such as:
The number written in words
The number of ones/tens/hundreds/thousands the ânumber of the weekâ has
The number written in expanded form
10/100 more and less than the ânumber of the weekâ
Placing the number on a number line
Representing the number in different ways (this sheet has a bar model and place value counters but this can be changed to dienes, abacus etc.)
Writing a word problem with the ânumber of the weekâ as the answer
This document can be edited to suit the needs of your class.
I use mine as an early morning task for children to complete as they come into class and settle themselves for the day.

How is soil formed?
A short story on PowerPoint explaining how âRoger Rockâ becomes âSimon Soilâ. There is also a storyboard on a word document which explain the process of how soil is made - children just need to draw their own pictures.
I used this in a Year 3 science lesson and the children loved making their own storyboards!

What to do if you need help (poster)
Does anyone else get asked (especially at the start of the year) for lots of help from their pupils? I use this poster to âtrainâ my class to use different things in the classroom before coming to myself/my TA for support. I put large copies up on display and smaller copies on tables. Both writing and pictures makes the poster accessible for all abilities! Enjoy!

Book Band Tracker
Want to track the progress of pupils reading in your class? My editable book band tracker allows you to do this! From cream to black book bands (you can edit the order if needed), you can use this to quickly and easily identify which book bands pupils are on and identify potential groups for guided reading, those needing interventions, pupils needing to be benchmarked etc.
I use the left hand column to add childrenâs names and then tick/date each book band as children achieve them.
Hope you find it useful! :)
