A selection of Collins Big Cat information books

Collins Big Cat

Review – New Collins Big Cat information books A wide-ranging series of ability-levelled information books, covering a variety of non-fiction genres… Sometimes my job isn’t fair. I receive a set fee for writing a review, for which I then allocate a certain amount of time to getting to know the given product before putting fingertips to keyboard. It therefore simply doesn’t make economic […]

The front cover of Bloomsbury Teacher Guide: Frankenstein

Bloomsbury Publishing

Review – Bloomsbury Teacher Guide: Frankenstein A comprehensive companion to the teaching of this classic heritage text… Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus (to give it its full title, complete with original, excessive punctuation) ticks all the boxes for an in-depth KS3/4 literature unit. Despite being a heritage text, it carries so much current cultural prominence that practically everyone is aware of […]

The front cover of The Kindness Quest

Bloomsbury Publishing

Review – The Kindness Quest An engaging activity book aimed at fostering kindness amongst primary school children… Do we really need a training manual on how to be kind these days? [Looks at news, world events, etc.] Actually, this might be exactly what we need. It does feel rather dispiriting that the concept of spreading kindness seems to have lost […]

Three secondary school girls reading books in their school library

BookTrust

Review – Bookbuzz by Booktrust An imaginative initiative that offers early KS3 children the chance to choose and own a book from a carefully curated selection It has to be the Holy Grail of the literary world – getting 11- to 13-year-olds into reading. Yet I don’t think the difficulty of doing so comes down to lack of choice. Enter […]

Hullabaloo!

Review – Hullabaloo! Primary Music Curriculum A comprehensive, fun and engaging music scheme that will hit the right notes with pupils and teachers alike… I’m not sure whether music was my first love – that might have been Thunderbird 2 – but it has always been close to my heart. I sang in the choir. I taught myself guitar and mercilessly […]

Pearson Schools and Colleges

Review – Maths mastery bundles A comprehensive collection of digital resources offering a whole-school solution for achieving maths mastery… We’ve heard a lot recently about our nation’s alleged ‘anti-maths mindset’. Perhaps, part of the problem is that it can take so much work for teachers to plan and prepare lessons. For some, there might also have been the issue of […]

edding

Review – edding EcoLine Highlighters Effective coloured highlighters with exceptional green credentials… There are ways to make your mark, some of them positive, others less so. Coloured highlighters, for example, have a proven track record in schools as tools for enhancing learning, typically as an aid to effective editing. Even so, many of us will share a nagging concern that, […]

School child practising handwriting

Collins

Review – Collins Happy Handwriting Help children master this essential skill, with all the resources you need ready-made… The digitally-savvy are always having a swipe at handwriting, bemoaning it as a redundant language skill.

Jigsaw

Review – Jigsaw 3–11 Fifty per cent of mental health problems are established by the age of 14, which is why early intervention matters and primary schools play such a vital role in providing high-quality PSHE lessons. But PSHE provision in schools varies enormously and there can be a scattergun approach to resourcing it, which is why opting for […]

FFT

Review – Tutoring with the Lightning Squad After the events of the last two years, there is plenty of catching-up to do – especially in reading among vulnerable and disadvantaged pupils. Educational research shows the most effective solution for struggling readers is tutoring, either one-to-one or in small groups. One way to address this is via a highly motivating, peer-supported, interactive multimedia […]

Juniper Education

Review – Sonar Tracker It’s a bit weird, when you think about it. It’s been twenty years since the policy of Laptops for Teachers was introduced, bringing the promise of saving time and improving efficiency. Fast-forward to today, and what remains a prime cause of teacher dissatisfaction? That’s right, workload. Somehow, technology helped to generate even more work than it saved. […]

Phonic Books

Review – Moon Dog series from Phonic Books These days, perhaps more than ever in our history, literacy is essential. Therefore, it is vitally important that we should not let anyone who cannot read to some extent pass through our education system. Sadly, there are youngsters for whom time is running out. For whatever reason, they have not been able to acquire the […]

Review – Provision Map A powerful web based information management tool designed for superhero SENCOs At a glance Who has it toughest in a school? The secretary? Caretaker? TA? EYFS teacher? Head?

Class Charts

Review – Class Charts BETT award-winning seating planner and behaviour management software… When used regularly and linked to current data, a seating plan is an intelligent classroom management tool to support teaching, learning and assessment.

Review – Whizz Pop Bang Magazine An award-winning monthly science magazine for children with accompanying downloadable lesson plans for Y2-6.
