17/3/09 - A wealth of writing resources for primary and secondary teachers. Helps with finding story ideas, developing plot and finishing the narrative. Highly recommended. Also includes writing warm up games / warm-up / starter activities.
Welcome to the Teaching and Learning Resources Website! Whether you are a teacher or a pupil, from the UK or overseas, I am sure you will find something of interest here.
The purpose of this site is to provide stimulating, interactive resources for children in Key Stage 2 (ages 7 to 11) of Primary School.
LEARNING
In the Learning section, you will find specially created interactive resources written to support learning in Key Stage 2 of the National Curriculum for England and Wales. All the resources in this section have been written by myself, a fully-qualified teacher with over 17 years' experience in the classroom teaching pupils aged 7 to 13. Resources include crosswords, multiple choice exercises, cloze procedure, wordsearches, web quests, games and more.
27/3/08 - Very easy to use, with lots of video examples / how to sketch or paint etc. Well worth a look for teachers' own subject knowledge and for use in class.
29/6/08 - "Freeware PowerPoint plug-in iSpring converts your PowerPoint presentation to an interactive Flash video with the click of a button. Not only is iSpring a great way to make your PowerPoint presentation more portable (not everyone has PowerPoint, after all), but an exported movie even preserves all of your slide transitions, animations, and hyperlinks."
10/11/08 - Something for every subject. This offshoot of Wikipedia has been edited for school use and can actually be downloaded in entirety, although - at 3.5 GB - you might want to send off for the free DVD instead...
Contains a list of children's books with a discussion of the philosophical issues raised by each and questions relating to the book to discuss with children.
