Teachers' TV Videos

I came across the Teachers TV video library the other day - there is an impressive collection of all kinds of different types of videos that are all free to watch online. Use the search tool to find videos in either the Primary, Secondary or General Zones. Some videos are just 1 minute long, other videos last around 15 minutes.

The 'Teachers' Trade Secrets' videos are accessible by just pressing 'Go' on the search menu without selecting a specific search criteria. These videos are great 1 minute tips from teachers on areas such as:

• Managing assemblies
• Using a class mascot
• Times table raps
• Learning vocabulary

The Primary section of the videos library (accessible by searching just for videos under the 'Primary Zone') contain a huge range of videos on teaching primary subjects and information and advice on areas such as behaviour management and settling in as an NQT. Here are just a few of them:

• Early Years - The outdoor environment
• KS1 Numeracy - Teaching Place Value
• KS2 Literacy - Boys' writing 1
• Primary ICT - Whiteboard top tips

All in all there are just under 600 videos to choose from on this site, 160 of them are in the Primary Zone. They are well worth a view and great if you want to just sit back and watch.
