Captivating Classrooms (also within your Raring2go! exclusive offer)
Many of our teacher members told us they would welcome further resources to support teaching in some under-supported subjects. So Captivating Classrooms, iChild’s educational service, was born!
Captivating Classrooms provides high-quality teaching resources to enhance classroom engagement and help implement a rich, diverse curriculum, with subjects from Black British History to Climate Change to Evolution and Inheritance.
We partnered with experts: the Geographical Association, the National Association for the Teaching of English, Professor David Olusoga, scientist and award-winning children’s author, Dr Mandy Hartley, and others. Captivating Classrooms offers teachers impactful resources, which bring expertly-crafted, informative lessons to life with beautiful imagery and exciting animations.
Here’s some recent feedback from a Year 5 Teacher
“The Captivating Classrooms resources save us valuable time in preparing lesson content. … With Captivating Classrooms, the high quality content with photographs and animations is already provided, and divided up into lessons, which is so helpful. … The resources provide awe and wonder for the children and create real excitement and engagement. The resources free teachers up to do more organisation for experiments … which in turn helps attainment. … We love how everything is set out and it fits so well into the curriculum.”
More feedback on one of our Black British History resources:
“iChild provided high quality resources to enhance our learning about the Tudor period. I liked that there was a clear focus on historical enquiry and history specific skills and ideas, such as continuity and change, outlined in the planning. The activities allowed for rigorous analysis and practise of skills, rather than just providing narrative content. These resources provided good development for me as a teacher to support our work towards widening our pupils’ historical and geographical perspective by looking beyond the typical narrative of the big personalities of the Tudor monarchs. These resources allowed us to extend our understanding globally by linking with Africa and African people and engaged the children in a meaningful way.”
