Learning Numbers with Vikings – Creative Pennant Chain Creative Pennant Banner - Bunting A playful number line for early math skills with a Viking theme ⚔️🔢 This printable number pennant chain helps students in early grades (K–2 or 1–3) practice counting from 0 to 20 – all within a fun and imaginative Viking setting. Each pennant features a number, a matching number of Viking-themed illustrations, and a rustic wood-frame design that gives the entire chain a cohesive and storybook-like look. What makes this material stand out is the thoughtful visual support: for every number, students see a set of hand-drawn Viking clipart items (e.g., shields, helmets, swords), clearly corresponding to the number shown. This helps learners make the connection between numerals and quantity – an essential early math skill. What’s included: Numbers 0–20 as printable pennants (PDF) Each number illustrated with a matching number of Viking-themed images Two versions: full-color and black-and-white for coloring activities Wooden-look frames and connectors to complete the Viking design Tips for classroom use included Ideas for classroom use: You can hang the pennant chain across the classroom as a number line or let students help assemble it during a math lesson. The black-and-white version works well for individual coloring tasks, giving students ownership over their learning space. Some teachers use it in math centers, others during Viking-themed project weeks. The visual repetition supports number sense and makes abstract numbers feel more concrete. I’ve found that students who usually struggle with counting feel more confident when they can match numbers to something they can see and count. The resource is easy to print and use, and no extra materials are needed beyond scissors and string. Laminating the pennants will help them last across multiple school years. This is more than just a decoration – it’s a tool for early math learning wrapped in a bit of adventure. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and welcoming learning environment. 🐶

Joseph John Thomson – The Discovery of the Electron Comprehension Activities A ready-to-use science resource for grades 7–10 (PDF + H5P) ⚛️📘 A printable and digital resource for grades 7–10 science and cross-curricular teaching 🧪🧠 This classroom resource introduces students to Joseph John Thomson, the physicist who discovered the electron and helped shape our modern understanding of atomic structure. His work not only earned him a Nobel Prize, but also laid the groundwork for the atomic models students learn about in middle and high school. The material is designed to be easy to use – even if you’re short on prep time. The reading text is short and accessible, followed by a structured worksheet and quiz questions. It’s suitable for science lessons focused on atomic theory or the history of chemistry, but it also works well in substitute teaching settings since students can work through it independently.

Thomson A profile worksheet to help students summarize key points Quiz questions (with solution key) Two extension activities: – Students write their own questions based on the reading – Exchange and answer a partner’s questions File formats: – PDF (for printing or digital use) – DOCX (editable, text only) – H5P version (interactive, for learning platforms) How I use it in class: I like using materials like this at the start of a unit on atomic structure or when we discuss the development of scientific models. It gives students a chance to see how our current understanding has evolved – and reminds them that science is built on the ideas of real people. The H5P version allows for digital delivery and self-checking, making it great for homework or blended learning. It also gives students the chance to reflect, work at their own pace, or collaborate in pairs. Quick to prepare, easy to adapt – and a great way to connect abstract content to the scientists who helped shape it. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students!
