What is the bst way that you have found to display the HFW and tricky words in your classroom for the children? I have mine dispalyed on monsters which the children like but now I need the lights on for a lot of the day they are reflecting the light and I am not happy that they can be profitably used. My classroom is sometimes used as a route to the outside and anything hanging tends to get knocked down. Not sure how to proceede now--what do you do?

Just got some of these amazing blocks and cos they were so expensive want to ensure we really look after them. Has anyone treated theirs with protector before using? I know it is something I will have to do over time but should i do it before any use?

Hi I'm appealing to anyone who can recommend some REAL books to use as a substitute to the stories provided in the SEAL booklets which can be long and require too much listening for younger/ EAL pupils. I obviously want to teach the same principles/ arouse the same discussion points but want some well written quality stories with pictures. Any suggestions???? I have some budget left to spend on some books...deadline mid November!!! Thank you!
