This post may contain affiliate links. Thanks for supporting Sisters, What! I've recently went down the rabbit hole of home school resources that you can buy and that are also available to download for free. There are so many talented home schoolers these days and they have used their amazing art skills to create such beautiful unit studies and they're quite affordable. I thought I'd share both some that you can buy and that you can download for free.

Much is aligned with Charlotte Mason Philosophy. Along with a great reading and spelling list to download. She even has created a great curriculum outline for you to download. Everything is free or pay what you can. She only needs just enough to keep the site maintained, any profit she donates to a non-profit. She has been so generous at what she offers. You can also find free artist studies to download for free HERE I love all the Humble Place has to offer. She has created so many great artist study units. Most cost a little something, but she offers a few of them for free. I love This Reading Mama. She offers so many free printables, especially for preschool and younger elementary age. I have used her Learning to Read Printables for so many of my kids. Life Abundantly Blog has so much to offer and has some great printables that you can download for free like this nature collection journal Silo and Sage has created some great printables and even has some free ones, but you should also check out the ones for sale.

I am Gruffalo Mad! I’ve been a huge fan of the Gruffalo from the first time I read the story. It’s different and unique and sparks the children’s imagination. There are thousands of lesson plans you can use from the Gruffalo, and I’ve gone a little bit Gruffalo Mad! My husband will say I don’t need an excuse to spend money, but with a Gruffalo lesson week coming up, I couldn’t resist! I am teaching a rhyming lesson, but I didn’t want the children to only be involved in rhyming, I wanted them to have a rounded experience of the Gruffalo so the resources I have are: Gruffalo role play Gruffalo story sequencing Gruffalo large pairs matching Gruffalo small pairs matching Matching the written description to the picture (that’s to challenge my highers) Matching rhyming pairs, so ‘snake’ would be paired with ‘lake’ for example Making a Gruffalo’s child puppet Writing the roasted fox, owl icecream, scrambled snake and Gruffalo crumble recipes A maze (for fine motor skills) Story writing frames if the children would like to write their own Gruffalo story And a Gruffalo puppet I also have in my classroom a matching rhymes game that isn’t Gruffalo related The Gruffalo is one of those fantastic books that is completely versatile and has lots of different elements you can incorporate into a thematic curriculum. Like I said, I’m doing a rhyming lesson. I want to share my resources, however I use pictures that I find on the internet in my work and I’m not sure about the copyright. What I can do is point you towards some fantastic resources for Gruffalo lessons online! The Official Gruffalo Website Obviously the best source of activities for the Gruffalo, straight from the author and illustrator. I’m on this website a lot! Primary Treasure Chest This website absolutely is a treasure! So many wonderful resources, I would definitely recommend the site! You can download which ever activities are suitable for your class. Twinkl Twinkl have some lovely Gruffalo resources. They’re not the Gruffalo drawings but close enough to see the resemblance. And there is always Sparklebox. I also bought some of my resources from Amazon. Amazon has a lot of different resources but I was on a budget so the ones I bought were: A Gruffalo hand puppet Actually a really nice quality puppet, the mouth and the arms can be animated and it comes with a mouse finger puppet. £19.39 on 14.11.12 Gruffalo rhyming and snap game Lovely quality card games with bright, colourful pictures. A snap game and a rhyming pairs game. £4.72 on 14.11.12 Gruffalo activity book Lots of lovely activities to use at home and in the classroom, and some stickers! £2.95 on 14.11.12 Gruffalo colouring book Exactly what it says, with a word search, cross word and maze. Suitable for all ages. £2.95 on 14.11.12 If anyone knows about copyright could you let me know and I will share the rhyming pairs game which I’m using for silly soup and the matching pairs game, if it’s allowed. I will publish my lesson plan next time but the main activity I’m doing is Silly Soup. I am hoping that the fun resources will make up for the main activity not being a ‘wow’ activity. Oh! And of course! Buy the Gruffalo! I already have two copies of the book at home, because one just isn’t enough! The Gruffalo by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Sheffler.
