📕 Finally signed my six year old up for the summer reading challenge today. The weather wasn’t great so we popped along to the library.
📖 The challenge encourages children to keep reading during the school summer holidays. They can also collect stickers and prizes along the way!
🙌 Luckily the library reading challenge was free to take part in, unlike taking 3 boys trainer shopping afterwards. 🫠💰
🌞 Take me back!

🥅 Children choose a player and place them on the grid. They then give their partner directions to move the player to the goal, e.g. 2 spaces left, 3 spaces forwards.
🥅 This game’s sure to be a hit with any little football fans!
😍A lovely lady sent me some pics of my resources being used in her classroom in Zambia! It’s incredible to think that my activities are being used by children around the world 🥰 Thank you so much for sharing them with me!
⚽️ FOOTBALL PHONICS⚽️
With the Euros well underway, why not add these activities to your phonics provision?
⚽️Write words on the ground in chalk. Children dribble a ball over the sounds and blend them together. If dribbling is too tricky, they could slowly roll the ball instead.
⚽️Write sounds on polystyrene balls. Line the balls up in front of your net (toy goal/empty tub) to make a word. Children flick the balls into the goal, saying the sounds aloud. Can they blend the sounds to read the word?
💕What’s your favourite football-themed phonics activity?
🌞 Now that the summer weather has arrived, why not get your hands on these counting and number formation mats?
🏖️ Children practise writing the number and then count out the correct number of shells.
