Part of my new webinar series launching very soon, I am putting together a collection of writing resources that can go alongside this. This is a sneak peek to one of them which you can use in your classroom alongside your teaching practice!

This unpacks the different methods of teaching within writing: 

• Modelled writing
• Shared writing
• Guided writing
• Independent writing

This unpacks what it looks like and also talks about the release of responsibility within that method fo teaching. 

Download this freebie below BUT if you are excited for writing PLD and want to hear more about 'It's Writing Time', then make sure you join the list to be the first to know all about it! 

Getting ready for your year with planning? Then use this helpful planner checklist when working through your planning. 

Planning is my favourite thing, I mean I wrote a whole course about it! It is the foundation to setting you up in the classroom and ensuring you are on track with your day to day teaching. It's also a requirement of teaching too. 

This is a great handy checklist to work through to make sure you have everything you need to set you up for success! Free to download, simply enter your details and you'll be sent the checklist via pdf! 

Counting down the top 5 freebies of 2022 for you! 

So many epic freebies available on Mrs Priestley ICT; but these were the top downloads with #1 having over 4000 downloads alone!

​Find them all below so you can download these for yourself if you don't have any of them already!

If you are anything like me, you'll love this goal setting template to help you think about, brainstorm and manifest your goals and achievements for the 2023 year! 

I love taking a few moments at the beginning of the year to really think about what I want to achieve. Not the general 'make more money, or lose weight, or exercise every day'. But really thinking about what I want for the year for myself, my business and as a person. 

What do I want to achieve? 
Where do I want to be at the end of 2023? 
What do I need to do first to get me to that place? 
What is going to help me with my goal?

2022 was absolutely massive for Mrs Priestley ICT! Reached new heights, smashed goals and was able to create even more resources for teachers across the world!

2023 is going to be even bigger and better! So stay tuned, subscribed and be prepared for even more amazingness for your classroom!

Alongside the course, I create a free webinar: Planning Unpacked. The purpose is to share planning tips but for those of you unsure of what will be in the full course. 

After my recent post on Instagram about maths, it was so evident that teachers were looking for next steps and some teaching sequence ideas going forward. So I put together these two guides which come straight from my practice. Something to help you out if you are struggling, unsure on what to include in your maths sessions and some helpful ideas. 

My teaching sequence included is something I use everyday! 
​1. I start off each maths guided group session with a hot spot first. A warm up activity to get students interested, engaged and warmed up for the learning happening in the session. 

I love Simplify my home. I use them at home for all of my pantry and fridge needs. I was looking at my maths area last term and thought....this needs a redo! But how and with what? 
I was scrolling on instagram and then thought - yes! Simplify my home containers!

Now this isn't sponsored at all - I paid for these with my own money! But boy it was worth the investment. 

I got the push containers pack bundle which comes with a variety of push top containers and baskets. The sizes are perfect for all of your classroom needs - in particular I wanted to plan for my maths equipment. 
They are sturdy, easy to use, moveable and clear meaning my students can see what is each of them at a glance. 
You too can use these in your classroom - this is the bundle I brought!

So modelling books have been something I have shared about a lot over on Instagram. It wasn't until this year, that I really thought about providing more insight into how I use them & offer more tips for those teachers who might not have any idea on how to get these going in the classroom.
