30/5/08 - "Wild Sanctuary is home to the largest private archive of natural sound, anywhere! Our worldwide collection represents over 3,500 hours of wild soundscapes and nearly 15,000 species." Great for Geography, Science and as writing stimulus.
11/5/08 - This is a charming story of a Kindergarten teacher in the USA. Much of what he suggests is directly applicable or adaptable all the way up to Y6.
11/5/08 - Basic list of 20 plot types - could be adapted relatively quickly for children's use. I will modify the language to child speak and add them in bubbles to my literacy display.
8/5/08 - The best and most comprehensive science planning and support materials page that I have found. The planning is QCA plus (more than just the usual investigation ideas) and "oven ready" - needs very little tweaking whatsoever.
27/4/08 - Sentence laboratory (Experiment with writing sentences when given 1, 2 or 3 starting words. The 1 and 2 word games are good for reinforcing the use of capital letters and full stops. The 3 word option gives you the opportunity to work on the accurate use of conjunctions), Sentence Magic (ake a very basic sentence and play around with it in various different ways) plus Clauses and Connectives.
