If my free resources, posts and book reviews have helped you in some small way, it would be lovely if you could support me by buying me a coffee, or a book to read my baby Adaline. Please don’t feel like you have to though!

Wood effect vinyl

I've used this vinyl as display backing for 7 years and it still looks like new! Check out my Instagram to see pictures of it in my classroom

Chalk pens

My go-to chalk pens. I use them on my tuff trays and the children love writing on the tables or windows with them. They wash off really easily

Carpet spots

Not sure what I did before these carpet spots. I use the chalk pens above to write the children’s names on them and they can be easily moved around the carpet. Also great for lining up!

Dry erase pockets

I use these dry wipe pockets all the time. Pop and activity inside, children complete it with whiteboard pen and it can be easily wiped off. Perfect for reluctant or less confident writers

Audible

Audible is perfect for child friendly podcasts and stories in the class and you can even access downloadable activities. I like to listen to an audiobook or podcast on the way to or from work to switch off too

Amazon Prime

It has been so handy having next day delivery when I've needed something for school. You can check out my Amazon Teacher store for all my teacher essentials and books for the classroom. You can get a 30-day free trial too
