I spent a couple of days prepping activities that I could use in a variety of ways across a variety of levels and so far I am pretty pleased with them. I was quite nervous not having done any relief work before but once I got into the class it all came back to me and I have been lucky enough to relieve in all ages from 0-8.
One of the most handy things I have had supplied by a school was a list of names with the photos of the children beside it - came in super useful many times.
I didn't take many photos of the activities I did but here are a couple of things I did in a Year 4/5 class.
I played on the excitement of fidget spinners and children played an addition game (not sure they realised it was learning) |
Because it was Samoan week we created Samoan inspired art |
