What’s included? This download includes x2 (portrait orientation, pdf) A4 sheets, featuring one ‘May’ word search (page 1). The answers on page 2 clearly show where all words are hidden, displayed in the same layout (as page 1) to promote autonomy whilst providing easy comparison/quick reference. Who’s it for? This word search has been designed for pupils the early years, in years one and two, as well as students needing additional learning support. Nouns are illustrated to make the meaning of these words clear to learners - this would also benefit pupils with EAL. Resource layout The word search letters are arranged in a x12 by x12 square grid and featuring easy to read ‘Sassoon Infant Std’ font. The May words have been organised into four groups, clearly showing all hidden words below the word search. There are x18 words to find in total. These words are hidden horizontally (forwards and backwards), vertically (up as well as down) and diagonally (forwards up and down and backwards down). Words to find are; may, spring, bees, world bee day, maypole, may queen, flower show, bank holiday, flowers, blossom, tulip, hawthorn, lily of valley, fifth (month in year), emerald, gemini, taurus, sun and showers. Recommendations I recommend that learners use a ‘highlighter’ style pen when finding the hidden words as highlighters enable all letters to remain visible once each word has been identified, some letters have been used more than once (for different words) so all letters need to remain visible. This word search may be printed and laminated to be reused. Important message… ANY issues with any of this resource please don’t hesitate to get in touch - I am happy to make changes.

There are x8 words and x8 images to read and match. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for Early Years children who have been learning these sounds for the first time, pupils in Year 1 who need some practise/reinforcement of these sounds as well as older learners needing to revisit these sounds who would enjoy this Christmas themed activity. Resource Details… Each word card has a coloured triangle (top, left). Pink indicates these words are using Phase 2 sounds. Purple indicates that these words use Phase 3 sounds. Red graphemes indicate that these sounds might be more tricky as different people can pronounce these sounds differently. E.g. the ‘er’ in the word ‘cracker’ may be pronounced as an ‘uh’ or even an ‘a’ sound. Learners may need support with the red graphemes. All images/words included in this resource have been chose because they can be sounded out - the ‘tick’ pictured on the coloured (pink/purple) triangle indicates that these words can be sounded out.

New online service coming soon with FREE downloads (including this resource) available! For more information visit https://alphabetlearning.online What’s included? This download includes x1 portrait orientation pdf to make an ‘Christmas Countdown - Advent Calendar Candle’ to count down the December days from the 1st to the 24th. What’s it for? This countdown has been designed to be used for by an individual/group or class to countdown the days to Christmas. Behind each numbered flap is a Christmas image and a few related words to read. This resource has been designed to be made by or with an adult - an adult leading the way with the steps to follow and a learner reading and helping as they are able. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students with additional learning needs. An older, more able, pupil may be able to make this ‘with’ or ‘for’ a younger learner in a paired activity, working together. Resource Details Everything needed for the finished Advent Candle Countdown Calendar is included on the pdf. There are six main instructions and additional, detailed, information positioned next to the relevant parts to make what to do clearer. The overall task is to cut along the red dotted lines to cut out the main candle shape and separate the ‘flaps’ which will fold over the image (for each day) to hide it. Numbers are provided to stick onto these flaps in order - from the base of the candle up to the top. Alternatively these numbers can be written by hand instead - whatever is preferred/easiest. To make one advent calendar learners will need: a pencil (to write their name) a pair of scissors a glue stick a small ball of Blue Tac (the size of a small marble) The piece of Blue Tac will then be made into x24 teeny tiny balls which are used to secure the flaps closed until it is the date to be opened. Suggestions This pdf will need to be printed onto white card or it won’t be strong enough to stand up by itself. Double sided sticky tape might be a better alternative to secure the candle shape together instead of using a glue stick. Glue/double-sided sticky tape is to be applied to the single purple strip, positioned vertically on the right hand side of the pdf. Read the six steps carefully before starting to help make the process as easy as possible. Important message… Any issues please let us know - we are happy to make changes.

An adult prints these cards onto A4 card and and pre-cuts them into x52 separate rectangle cards. The set of cards is shuffled and placed on a table top for learners to sort and match. Learners could use this resource on their own or with adult support. Learners could also use this resource to order the cards alphabetically. Learners look at each image and say this out loud. They then identify (verbally) the initial sound of the word e.g. for the first letter of the alphabet the learner would say “Advent Calendar” and then “a” (for ‘Advent’). Learners then look for the ‘a’ grapheme card to match the two cards together. Resource Details… This recourse includes x26 pictures - one (initial sound) for each letter of the alphabet and x26 matching grapheme cards - all Christmas themed. An extra ‘n’ for ‘nutcracker’ is also included (so x27 pictures and letter cards). This set also includes an ‘Answer sheet’. The pictures included use words with clear initial sounds. Some images/words may be completely new to learners making these a talking point and opportunity to extend their ‘Christmas vocabulary’. For clarity all images are labelled on the right side of every grapheme card, e.g. ‘quince’ may easily be presumed to be a ‘pear’. Pictures included: a Advent Calendar b bauble c cracker d dove e elf f fire/fireplace g gift/s h holly i invite/invitation j jingle bells k king (two versions of the ‘k’ grapheme are provided) l lantern m mistletoe n nuts / n - nutcracker (two ’n’ cards are included) o orange p pudding q quince r robin s star t tree u under (the tree) v Vixen (a reindeer!) w wine x Xmas zest (of lemon/oranges, lemon pictured) x2 versions of the grapheme ‘k’ card are included as some learners may be more familiar with one font style than another - two ‘king’ cards are also included. The answer sheet has been designed for learners to use and check answers independently, encouraging autonomy. Important message… Any issues please let us know - we are happy to make changes.
