"The Favourites game is a favourite of mine and the children at school. It’s a great ice breaker in the getting to know you session. They children love it as they get to find out about me too. It’s such a simple resource, but one I use at least once a week Lesley ELSA & Learning Mentor North London."

    Hi Debbie.
    You have some Fantastic resources, unfortunately I have a problem. Is there any chance that you can also do a cursive option. This would be very helpful as my school is all cursive. Thank you for your time.

    • Hi Bev, this worksheet does have cursive text but it wouldn’t be practical for me to do all my resources in cursive. So sorry. Personally I believe children should be able to read all sorts of different text. After all if they are reading a book it isn’t in cursive. Appreciate your feedback though, thank you 🙂
