Teachers’ Notes This resource includes 100 separate activity cards aimed at students in Years 1 and 2. These activity cards can be photocopied and laminated for reuse. It is suggested that you store these cards in the classroom so that your students have easy access to them. Students will possibly use the cards for extension activities when they have completed their set classroom tasks.

or eBo st r e p ok u S

Teac he r

ew i ev Pr

Cards are linked to the core subject areas of: English, Maths, Science, History and Geography. It is expected that students will complete their responses to the activities in their workbooks or on blank sheets of paper. To make life easy for the teacher and student, minimum equipment is needed to complete the cards. Occasionally, the internet is needed and when this is the case, a picture of a computer indicates this.

Both classroom and relief teachers will find these cards ideal because they keep students busy and engaged. Also available are task cards for other year groups.
