My 3yo's favourite game to play with me this week- phonics car park! I line up some cards and say one of the sounds, then he parks a car on the right card and says the sound. Endless fun!

What do you do when you find a mixed bag of random Scrabble letters? Make letter fridge magnets!

I've had that too! So frustrating.

Three bits of poor observation feedback I had early in my career: 1) Despite there being phonics flashcards in my mentor's classroom, I should have printed/ laminated my own. 2) I must choose a group and sit with them for the whole lesson. 3) Make the children guess the WALT.

Something I've done is display the problem but cover the numbers, then discuss the problem together. When they have a method for solving, show the numbers and all children can then solve using the shared method. :)

That's great to hear! Glad they're useful!

Sarah Farrell @sarahfarrellks2.bsky.social · 20/08/2024

Thank you! I have several others that I've made as well. I've tried to put the words in appropriate places for each word to lead onto discussion about what the words might mean.

How many rainforest-themed words can you find hidden in the picture? #EdySky #PrimaryEnglish

I can almost hear the heavy sigh coming from my 3yo's painting!

You could say it's the only one equal to one whole, or where the numerator and denominator are equal though!

Sarah Farrell @sarahfarrellks2.bsky.social · 19/08/2024

Which one could be the odd one out? Why? Can you find more than one reason for the same fraction? #EduSky #PrimaryMaths

I always like an activity where everyone can be successful, but where there's potential for lots of challenge!

Sarah Farrell @sarahfarrellks2.bsky.social · 18/08/2024

Spelling/ word exploration activity: What links can you find between different words? Are there any that could be the odd one out? Links could be phonemes, prefixes, suffixes, root words, vowels, consonants, word classes, etc. #EduSky #PrimaryEnglish

I thought I'd re-share some handwriting resources that I've made, including guides, handwriting packs, GIFs and handwriting warm ups to practise the necessary lines and shapes to form letters. Hope they're useful! mrsfclassroom.wordpress.com/2023/04/18/h... #EduSky #EduSkyPrimary
