This editable worksheet contains six simple (series) electrical circuits for the children to build. After each one, there are a series of questions relating the circuit. Take a look at the preview for further details.

A series of homework projects headed under: Word Smart Science, Maths, ICT Smart Art, Design & Creativity Smart Each activity compliments the children’s study of Ancient Egypt and encourages them to have fun doing them at home, hopefully furthering their passion or interest in the subject. *The included file is a Word Document and every part is fully editable, including the year group logo. *

This worksheet involves 10 shape patterns of increasing difficulty. Children have to discern the repeating unit and then fill in the missing shapes to complete the patterns. There are a mixture 2D and 3D shapes and most of the patterns involve rotation and colour changes. LO: I can identify patterns in sequences of shapes. I can complete missing sections of patterns in sequences of shapes. This worksheet is designed to be used online as a Google Doc but could also be printed, however some of the shapes would be difficult to replicate just through drawing. I use it in Google Classroom and create a copy for each of the children to work on.

This reading comprehension is based on the story of Egyptian Cinderella by Shirley Climo. It is made up of a variety of different questions which involve different skills from fact recall to comparison. Please see the preview to get an idea of the types of questions. The worksheet is fully editable so you can change any part to suit your needs. It is also easily used for remote learning if you share it as a Google Doc. I hope you like this worksheet. If you do, please kindly leave a review if you have a moment. Thank you. Also, please note, this document does not include the original story text. However, it can be easily found on the internet or as a read-aloud on Youtube.

On this A3 worksheet, children create a key and colour in the countries on the map of Europe. Except for the map, this document is fully editable. Instructions: a) Select and write down the names of 15 countries, found in Europe, in the key below. b) Assign a different colour for each country and then colour in the corresponding location on the map of Europe. c) Mark on either the names of the oceans and seas, or some of the capital cities. You could also have the children draw on famous human-made or natural landmarks.

This is a standalone activity I do in ICT to help chidlren learn how to create tables tables in Microsoft Word, select cells and shade cells with different colours. The children could even add text to a cell as part of the art or merge cells. In this document are four ready made examples of what sort of table/pixel art they could create whilst mastering these skills. You could provide them as examples or even provide the table outline as a template for the children to work on, although if they’re able to, it’s better to have them create their own table.

This is the electronic take on the classic memory game and it’s fully editable! Just add in pairs (or groups) of words for matching up. Best to be projected in front of the class and have two teams compete. There are 24 numbered tiles that reveal the words underneath when clicked on. I’ve also included one click scoring systems (with a max 12 points for each of the two teams) as well as a hide and reveal all button. This is great for reinforcing new vocabulary but can also be used for anything which can be split into two parts. For example, a word cut in half, a word and definition, a word and picture, a verb and its past tense form, synonyms or even a maths calculation and answer. There are so many different possibilities! It’s also good point for introducing locational memory strategies and mnemonics.

This A3 worksheet is made up of two activities relating the digestive system. The first activity is a crossword which comprises a description of the functions of different parts. The second activity involves labeling the parts of the digestive system scattered around the crossword. Here are some example questions/clues for the crossword… Muscular tube which moves ingested food to the stomach. Produces digestive enzymes. Where food enters the body. Parts and other keywords covered in the worksheet include… Mouth, teeth, oesophagus, stomach, bile, acid, small and large instestine, pancreas, liver, gall-bladder, recyum, anus etc. This worksheet works as a nice review for individual or pair work. It gives you a chance to see if the children can identify the function and ID different parts of the digestive system.

This worksheet involves questions that relate to the text of Pie Corbett’s Storm Unicorn. The questions cover basic recall and then move onto more advanced comprehension skills such as inference. The final section leaves a space for the children to attempt to draw the Storm Unicorn based on the details of the report. It encourages children to think flexibly and relates the plight of the unicorn with that of rhino’s. It also opens up a wealth of discussion surrounding that point too. I usually use this after the children have read, mapped and analysed the report in detail first. It acts a good gauge for their understanding. *The document is fully editable so you can change questions as you please. *

We study the Storm Unicorn by Pie Corbett during literacy. Leading up to this we look at other examples before the children write their own (non-chronological) report with the aid of the text. This is a re-write of the Storm Unicorn called the Candy Unicorn. Sub-titles have been added in as we encourage the use of them for better organisation. There is also another report by Pie Corbett called the Frost Unicorn which we use in addition to this as another example report text. The document is fully editable so you can change parts as you please.

A set of four colourful bookmarks which contain questions for readers to ask themselves (or by their parent or friend). The questions are designed to help further the children’s understanding about what they are reading. They are split into questions for before, during and after reading. *The document is fully editable so you can change any aspect of the bookmarks. Print duplex on the short side, cut out and laminate for best result. *

This is a giant A3 sized crossword puzzle that I use to review our Ancient China unit at the end of term. I usually let children work in pairs if they want to. Also, initially I won’t let them consult any resources or ask questions, just to see how far they get first. There are more than 20 questions in total! Here are some of them to give you an idea of the level required. A type of ceramic invented by the Chinese. It is thin, strong, and beautiful. It is often called “china” in the west. A type of varnish used to protect items and make them more beautiful. A legendary monster that terrorized a Chinese village until they used fireworks and noise to scare it off. A revered mythical creature that has the long body of a serpent, sharp teeth, four legs with sharp talons, and can fly. This puzzle is would be suitable for upper KS2 and KS3.

This colourful worksheet is made up of 5 addition word problems of increasing difficulty. For each problem, the children are expected to draw a bar model using the template provided and then show their workings and answer, again using a provided outline. The final question involves children creating their own word problem for their friend to try and solve using the same methodology, The worksheet works even better if accompanied with manipulatives such as Base 10 blocks. The LO is for the children to be able to solve addition based word problems with the help of bar models. The document is fully editable so names, numbers and questions can be changed to suit your children’s needs.

The Challenge This Code Breaker Challenge is made up of 4 challenge sheets, each containing three sets of questions about subtraction as well as an instruction section written in code. There is also a final challenge sheet for obtaining the master lock key. The Setup Ideally, the Code Breaker Challenge requires a box which can be locked with four three digit combination locks and one padlock. See the attached picture as an idea for the setup. It could however be done without this, but wouldn’t be quite as fun for the children. How to Use Fill the box with treasure, for example some sweets and then setup the combinations on each of the locks and lock the box with them and the master lock. Split the class up into four teams and provide each team with one of the challenge sheets. Start a timer of approximately 30 minutes (depending on the ability and age of your class). Each team works together to solve the challenge and tell the teacher the three digit code. If they got it correct, they may open their lock. If not, then they will need to check their answers. Once all four combination locks have been opened, or even after the first team has finished, provide the master lock challenge. If they complete it correctly and within the time, they can then have the master lock key to open the treasure box. Great Fun! The children absolutely love the Code Breaker Challenge and we repeat it at the end of every major maths unit. They really need to work together and check their work carefully if they are to succeed in opening the box and retrieving the treasure within. The documents is fully editable so you can use it as a template to create your own challenges if you like. You can also use it for other subjects as well, but it definitely lends itself to maths the most. I hope you and your children enjoy it as much as mine do! This challenge is one in many. Please take a look at my shop for other units. Thank you.

The idea for this worksheet is that the children select a country from Africa to research and fill in the geographical facts. For example, population, capital, languages, land area, currency, religion etc. There is also a space for drawing and colouring in the flag and the background of the worksheet is a map of Africa, so children can also draw an arrow and/or colour in their chosen country. The worksheet helps children gain a broader perspective of the world and a chance to compare to their own country. It’s also a great starting point for a more in depth study of a particular country. The document is fully editable so you can change any information you please.
