TES – A Hedgehog’s Year

Sign up for a free TES account and get your hands on some lovely resources. This one ‘A Hedgehog’s Year: Cyclical Sequencer ‘ – A TESiboard activity for pupils to sequence the stages of a year in the life of a hedgehog. Click each picture and read or listen to the explanation. Drag the pictures into the cyclical diagram, placing them in the right order. Takes you through a year of hedgehog life … brilliant for life cycles work in science ‘Life processes and living things’.

These updates come to me via a TES tweet to my Twitter account. Twitter is a great place for information and keeping up-to-date.

TES Cross Curricular Project

The TES are really on form today … here is another project that is totally cross-curricular … here is what they say: The Night Zookeeper is an excellent cross curricular project, which Key Stage 2 teachers can complete in two weeks. It includes 8 English lessons, 2 ICT lessons and 1 Art lesson. These sessions are all linked to one another enabling children to become immersed in the world of the Night Zookeeper.

TESconnect

Today the TES’s revamped website went live and I must say that it certainly looks good. All of the things you would expect are there upfront and quick to access. Jobs, Communities and Resources feature on the clear, white front page … a no-nonsense design style that does them credit.

Well worth making the first of many visits I think …
