Road Safety

After agreeing on our class rules each child promised to follow them by printing their handprints on coloured paper (the staff did this too). I used the handprints to create petals around each rule and make a colourful rule reminder.

Target Tree

Each arrow has the child's targets - change every half term.  The branches of the tree are used for PSHE topics which we think and write about, then add to the branches each half term and add our feelings and any issues we may have to the leaves.  We take a look at the leaves each week and resolve issues during Circle Time.

Sea of Recognition

Children complete a fish and stick it in the sea if someone else or they have completed an excellent piece of work or been especially kind or helpful.

We are 4J

A beginning of year display - can be left up all year for visitors - one display of sketches and another of paintings (outside the classroom) - Incorporating PSHE, Literacy, Art, and BLP (Building Learning Power).  Children write a short paragraph on themselves to match up to the appropriate picture.

Building Learning Power

Relating to the particular topic of the half term - in this case 'listening'.  Children write down on post its how they learn the best, how to manage distractions and how they listen best.  They are allowed to add to it as and when they need to.  Focus changes every half term but only post its need to be changed.  I use a different colour for every change of topic.

Health Education

Posters produced after researching the effects of smoking on health.
