New online service coming soon with FREE downloads (including this resource) available! For more information visit https://alphabetlearning.online What’s included? x2 sheets (x10 picture/CVC word cards) focusing on the ‘a’ sound. Both sheets are portrait orientation, pdf format. These cards are designed to be used with a Function Machine, but can be used without. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one as well as older students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? Learners can use these cards to practise sounding out simple CVC/CCVC (Phase 2/3 phonics) words. This activity has been designed to be a simple, interactive, predictable activity to promote independence and consolidate learning. This activity is ideal for individuals to be getting on with independently. With a Function Machine Learners sound out the graphemes on one side of each card to read each word then push the card into the top function machine slot (word side facing up) and can see if they are correct when the picture pops out of the slot below (picture side up!) Without a Function Machine Learners sound out the graphemes on one side of each card to read each word then flip it over to see if they were correct - looking at the picture on the other side. What is needed to make these? x2 sheets of white A4 card (for the printer) decent scissors a metal ruler (for ‘scoring’) scoring tool (to help fold the card accurately) a glue stick How to use it? An adult needs to print the sheets onto card and follow the instructions (included on both sheets) to make these cards double-sided/back-to-back. The set of back-to-back cards can then be placed on a carpet/table top, for learners to use on their own/with adult support. Phoneme ‘dots’ have been included under every grapheme so that learners know how many sounds to say as they read (sound out) the words. Resource Details… Red (Set 1 - ‘a’) The words/pictures included use sounds from Phases 2 and 3. Only v is from Phase 3. The words included in this set are - bag bat cap cat crab hat map mat pan van Sets for ALL vowels (doubled sided/back-to-back) are also available. Each set is a different colour to avoid cards becoming mixed up. Important message… Any issues please let us know - we are happy to make changes.

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 x2 A4, portrait pdf sheets. What’s it for? These resources have been designed either for the start of a new term when new pupils are joining a brand new year group together or for individual pupils who are joining a class mid-term. There are two versions included - a more/less challenging sheet. Learners share in writing some simple information that is ‘all about me’ to help new teachers to get to know them on a more individual level. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource Details Both sheets are in the same layout, however one is less challenging than the other. Less Challenging Version Learners complete the sentences by writing their own information on the lines provided. There is a space on the right for learners to complete a simple ‘self portrait’ - adding their eye colour, eyebrows, nose, mouth and hair. The written information on the right of this links to the portrait when completed. Under the portrait learners complete their birthday, favourite colour, favourite thing to do and favourite food - all in pictures and writing. More Challenging Version Learners complete the sentences by writing their own information on the lines provided. There is a space on the right for learners to complete a simple ‘self portrait’ - adding their eye colour, eyebrows, nose, mouth and hair. The written information on the right of this links to the portrait when completed. Under the portrait learners complete their birthday, favourite colour, favourite thing to do and favourite food, in writing. In addition learners circle a tick or cross for whether they like school (or not) and can complete sentences recording one thing they do and don’t like at school - helping their new teacher get to know and understand them better.

New online service coming soon with FREE downloads (including this resource) available! For more information visit https://alphabetlearning.online What is it? This download includes x10 portrait orientation pdfs each containing x12 individual name labels for books/pegs/trays, each label includes the words ‘My name is…’ New school year, new term or just time for a refresh these themed name labels should brighten up those school books and help organise those cloakrooms! What’s it for? These labels have been designed with an eye catching image to help young learners recognise their items when they are maybe not yet familiar with recognising their name. Learners could choose their image at the start of the school year/term and this image/label design could be used consistently on their books/personal tray/storage cubby/coat peg. These labels could also be ideal for older learners (with a particular interest) who would benefit from the additional visual aid to support their educational needs. Or! They can be used as you choose… Who is it for? Any pupil of any age who would enjoy these labels! Though designed for younger children when first starting nursery/Reception/school many learners would enjoy these and they are really helpful for quickly finding an individual’s peg/tray if you know the image to look for! Resource details There are x5 themed sets, x12 unique images/labels per sheet all available with black borders OR coloured. Each label includes the words ‘My name is’ with a horizontal line to write/stick each child’s name on. Label size Each label is approximately W 9cm/10cm x H 4.5cm/5cm (depending on size of a white border kept when cut out). Sets include animals everyday objects food (fruit and treats) nature (our favourite!) transport All sets are available with black/coloured borders Important message… Any issues please let us know - we are happy to make changes.

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 x4 A4, portrait pdf sheets to practise matching upper and lowercase alphabet letters using an alphabet strip (showing capital letters) and carrots (for lowercase letters). Two pages include instructions on how to make a rabbit face into a ‘posting box’ with clear photos supporting each step. An empty tissue box is needed to make this resource. Dotted guide lines show where to cut. There are also two ‘slits’ which need making and a hole to be cut (inside the rabbits mouth) - these may be best made using a craft knife (used well away from little people!) This resource is designed for an adult to make ‘for’ learners to use. What’s it for? This resource has been designed to practise recognising and matching upper and lowercase alphabet letters and to become more familiar with the ‘alphabetical order’ of all alphabet letters. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed to be used by early years children and pupils in year one as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource Details The photo shows how this resource looks which complete. The idea is that learners move the capital letter alphabet strip left/right to show a different capital letter. They then ‘post’ the matching lowercase alphabet letter (carrot!) into the rabbit’s mouth. This is an ideal activity to keep learners busy and independent. I have included two versions of the letter ‘k’ as some learners may be more used to the look of one style than the other. There is also a ‘blank’ carrot included in case one gets lost.

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 x4 pages, portrait orientation, pdf format. Two versions of the same word search are included - colour and black and white. Who’s it for? This simple, clear resource has been carefully designed to encourage young learners, especially pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Pupils with EAL (English as an additional language) are supported by the images of the 3D shapes. What’s it for? This 2D shape wordsearch includes 2D shape names and related vocabulary with images of the shapes included (page 1). The answers (page 2) clearly show where all words are hidden, including their direction and how many words there are to find. Resource layout The word search letters are arranged in a x10 by x10 square grid. The 2D shape names (and related words) have been organised into four groups of four, clearly showing all hidden ‘shape words’ below the word search. There are x16 words to find in total. These words are hidden horizontally (forwards not backwards) OR vertically (up as well as down). The direction of the hidden words is made clear at the top of page 1. Once learners have completed the wordsearch they could cross-check their answers independently - promoting autonomy. Words to find are: ellipse circle semi circle heart round triangle edges side square rectangle rhombus vertices pentagon hexagon star regular Extension The 2D shape images are hidden in this word search as well as the 2D shape names. For learners who would like an extra challenge, learners can find (and name) these 2D shapes - ticking the images off as they find them in the boxes below the word search (on page 1). Recommendations We recommend that learners use a ‘highlighter’ style pen when finding the hidden words, enabling 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 in order to find all of the hidden words. If words are ‘crossed out’ this makes the letters harder to read and identify. This word search may be printed and laminated to be reused.
