Well, yesterday was an incredible day that far surpassed any other day since setting up this site last May. I have been watching the website stats carefully to see what people are typing in to get to this site and to see which pages are the most popular. Early Morning Work has now been over taken by semi-colons and bossy verbs. I now feel like I need to find ways to improve these pages so that you are not disappointed when you visit here in the future. The page views have sky-rocketed since updating the Spellings and Reading Corner pages. I hope to continue updatng other areas such as 'The Piano,' 'Macbeth' and 'The Highwayman' as well as I know that these are key units of study. The site is now experiencing at least 300 unique visits a day. I shall continue to update the site from time to time. Keep checking back, and please comment if there is something I can provide on this site that you woud benefit from... Thank you...

I came across your website while searching for inspiration for KS2 SAts revision. Thanks for the ideas, particularly the Early Morning work. It's good to be reminded about activities that have dropped out of my repertoire!

Thank you for your website - I came across this when searching for early morning activities. And was very impressed/grateful when I came to your site. My students love our Morning Madness work - thanks to you! I have Key Stage 2 saved in my favourites. It's so amazing to be able to get FREE resources/lesson ideas!! Teaching fun and exciting curriculum is so important in order to engage the students and when you have to pay for new ideas and books etc it becomes so expensive. Sharing things for free just shows how passionate and professional you really are. Well Done Mr Birch!! p.s I have never left a reply before on someones blog but was very impressed and thankful and also surprised that not a lot of people have left comments such as these even though you have at least 500 hits a day!!!!!? Keep up the good work and thanks again for SHARING :)

Hello mr birch, some excellent resources so no wonder it is getting lots of page views. I am an ICT teacher currently in Primary so loving your resources. Just wanted to point out that your fb image is huge (on the homepage) you need to resize it to the right size so that your page loads a lot faster. View your homepage with stylesheet turned off to see what I mean. feel free to let me know if you need any help.
