Here are Powerpoint slides of four lessons based on the planning from Understanding Christianity. This is aimed at Years 3 and 4. In this unit there is a variety of activities such as creative art activities as well as a writing task. This is ready to download and teach. The learning objectives for each lesson are as follows: Lesson 1: Engage in the story of Creation and Fall Children listen to the story of Creation and go on a mindful walk around the school grounds to look at any nature they can see and appreciate that Christians believe this was created by God. They return and explore the concept of temptation first-hand and then explore the panel images that represent creation and fall from the Understanding Christianity unit. Lesson 2: Enquire into Christian belief that humans cannot get close to God without his help Here children will explore the feelings of Adam, Eve and God when Eve betrayed them. The outcome of this lesson is a diary entry of Eve exploring how she feels. Children will understand the importance of saying sorry and taking responsibility for their actions. Lesson 3: Explore that the bible shows God wants to help people by giving guidelines Children will explore the ten commandments and watch videos of two different types of churches that serve God in different ways. Their task is to create a piece of art based on one of or all of the ten commandments. Examples are included. Lesson 4: Evaluate and express our learning about creation and fall This lesson will consist of children ordering the story of creation as a reminder, completing a quiz either individually or in teams about the creation story. There is then a selection of activities to choose from in two sections: writing or drawing. Included: The Powerpoint with all of the links required inside The quiz for lesson 4 #understandingchristianity #RE #christian #creation #thefall #adamandeve #unit #religion #religiouseducation #God #Bible

9 weeks worth of homework! Each week consists of two sets - one for on track learners and one for ‘SEN’ learners. The SEN homework is slightly more visual and goes through the KS1 spellings. The on-track homework takes spellings from the Year 3/4 government spelling list. The homework is intended to be printed double sided with a times table task on one side and spellings on the other. The homework has the due date written on the top of the page which is due in on Fridays but this can easily be amended. #homework #timestables #multiplication #spelling #year3 #year4

This unit of work involves 7 lessons that are creative and go into depth in inferring from the text. This is a creative unit if work which requires less writing and more hands-on, illustrative work. It mostly follows the plan from the CPLE Power of Reading planning for this book. It is a good unit of work to do when returning to school from a holiday break. Lesson 1 - Exploring the cover Lesson 2 - Exploring illustrations Lesson 3 - Understanding and emphathising with characters Lesson 4 - Tracking the emotional journey through text and illustration Lesson 5 - Understanding and illustrating characters Lesson 6 - Design the next page in the book Lesson 7 - Infer the characters’ feelings Each lessons comes in its own Powerpoint. The book can be accessed online via Youtube.

Each lesson follows the same maths lesson structure of: Revisit Address Misconceptions Vocabulary Focus Guided Practice Talk Task Deepen Independent Task The ‘Independent Task’ slide has a ‘Now, Next, Last’ visual to promote children’s independence in completing their tasks. The Powepoint is infused with STEM sentences, different representations, practical activities, fluency, and reasoning tasks. The overall structure of the unit is inspired by the NCETM for Year 4 and some questions and representations are taken from White Rose. There is a real mixture of resources used and combined to create a comprehensive unit that can be delivered straight from this download. The lesson objectives are as follows: Identify place value Use column addition with regrouping Use column addition with regrouping twice Use column addition with regrouping twice Decide on mental or written strategies Solve addition problems Identify the minuend and subtrahend Use column subtraction Use column subtraction Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with two exchanges There are multiple lessons on subtraction with one exchange as this is where I have found children struggle the most within the unit. There are multiple lessons with multiple representations and a variety of challenging questions which extend those who do grasp this concept quickly. #mastery #year4 #addition #subtraction #writtenmethod #columnmethod #exchange ##regroup #NCETM #Whiterose #placevalue

This unit if work is inspired by the NCETM unit of work for Year 4 - Unit 2 - Numbers to 10,000 Most resources and slides are made by myself but some high quality activities have been clipped from NCETM and White Rose. The objectives covered per lesson are as follows: Know what 1000 is made up of (representations up to 1000) Use knowledge of 1000 to explain and measure conversions Add multiples of 10 Add multiples of 100 Use knowledge of 1000 to add and subtract Compare numbers to 10,000 Identify and estimate numbers on a number line Round to the nearest 1000 Round to the nearest 100 Apply rounding to problems Add and subtract four digits Know how many 25’s and 50’s make 1000 This unit of work cross-teaches many topics in maths and includes a lot of capacity and measure problems. Each lesson follows the lesson slide structure of: Revisit Address misconception Vocabulary Focus Talk Task Guided Practice Deepen Next steps (if it aimed to be a lesson that goes into books, which most are)

Here is 4 weeks worth of lessons based on The Pebble in My Pocket. Some lessons are inspired by the planning sequence from The Power of Reading scheme of work which then builds up comprehension and understanding of the text to lead into writing. Two high quality pieces of writing are planned, modelled, drafted, edited and published including a newspaper report and a persuasive speech on the environment. Learning objectives for each lesson are: 1 - write a poem about a pebble (examining and exploring real pebbles) 2 - create an image based on the text (art inspired by the illustrations) 3 - use rich vocabulary 4 - create a storyboard 5 - identify and use formal language 6 - plan a newspaper report 7 - write a newspaper report 8 - edit and improve (no slides for this as children complete this independently through a checklist) 9 - publishing (no slides provided as this is children publishing their work in their neatest handwriting for display) 10 - respond to illustrations 11 - understand the impact of climate change 12 - explain the impact of climate change 13 - explain the impact of climate change 14 - identify and use emotive language 15 - plan a persuasive speech 16 - write a persuasive speech 17 - edit and improve (no slides for this as children complete this independently through a checklist) 18 - publishing (no slides provided as this is children publishing their work in their neatest handwriting for display)

This is not an exact copy of the planning from The Power of Reading. It is inspired by the planning - taking some lessons and elements and combining it with my school’s approach to writing. Minimum of 14 lessons but another edit and improve session and publishing sessions can be added onto the end making this 16 potential sessions. Aimed at LKS2, Year 3 and year 4. Key skills taught in this unit: Exploration and teaching of rich vocabulary around water portraying a character’s emotion through verbs and adverbs Inference skills Present perfect tense/ past tense Inverted commas for speech This unit of work involves: Short bursts of writing involving of personal experiences around water which could be a diary entry but gives freedom of choice, poetry, asking key questions. It also involves building up skills for children to write about an event that happens in the forest to the main character where he sees something scary in the bushes, runs away and then realises it was only a small animal such as a bunny or an owl. This gives the children opportunity to show, not tell emotions of fear, nervousness and relief. The next part of the unit of work allows the main character to return home where Isac sees his Mum. This involves a conversation, applying their inverted commas skills. Here he can tell his Mum what happened in the forest and why he was so scared but then felt relieved because it was only an animal. Planning documents attached. Key worksheets attached and differentiated activities attached. Each lesson begins with a grammar warm up.
