A PowerPoint I made as part of a quiz based on Famous World Monuments. Each monument has a number of clues - students earn more teams points for using fewer clues.

A PowerPoint of activities based on communities and cities/urbanisation. This includes: Pictures of various communities (rural, urban and suburban) that can be used for a warmer quiz introducing the subject of different communities. Smaller versions of each picture (4 x one page) which can be printed out and used for sorting activities (I had 3 teams sort them and make a poster using them to compare characteristics of the 3 different types of community at the start of my unit on communities). A maths lesson on rounding which compares 5 large cities. This was used to raise awareness of the rapid increase in urbanisation across the world. A table for students to organise their rounded figures and fill in information about each city. Pictures of each city - printed and used by the students to complete their table. The students then used their tables to make bar charts comparing the population of the 5 featured cities.

A great maths resource that includes 10 different challenges/lessons based on exploring our world. Students get to learn about our World while practicing maths skills including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, number, negative numbers, calculating averages and data handling. Special lessons/challenges include work on the continents of the World, famous explorers, the World’s highest mountains, the World’s largest lakes, the World’s longest rivers, the whales of Antarctica, Africa’s deadliest animals and even a lesson on the creature with the most painful sting - the bullet ant! The resource includes several videos to accompany some of the lessons.
