This concentrates on Maths and English. Lots of great teaching ideas. Mainly Maths and English. The zip file has the lot. I have put some in the general download to give a flavour. sample planning : LO: To use written methods of addition. Review written methods of addition carried from Friday’s lesson (column, number line and partitioning. Use numbers with up to 4 digits during teaching time. Review how to use written methods and inverse knowledge to identify missing digits within calculations. Move on to solving simple word problems by choosing the most appropriate methods for task. AG: Supports Circles during teaching time. RM: Abacus Y1 page LO: To use written methods of subtraction. Give the children the following calculation 98 – 47. How many different ways can they carry out this calculation? Focus on methodology used by class. As a class ensure understanding of the following methods, number line, partitioning and column. What happens with column subtraction if the calculation was 96 – 47? Model decomposition. What happens when we work with decimal numbers? Model the use of decomposition several times. Children to carry out a range of calculations – AG: Supports Circles during teaching time. RM: Abacus Y1 page LO: To use written methods of subtraction. Review subtraction calculations for number lines and column methods involving amounts of money. Ensure children are familiar with decomposition and have time to review as needed. Apply within calculations that involve single and multiple decomposition. APPLY TO WORD PROBLEMS RM: LO: To use written methods of multiplication. As before, review methods of multiplication with the class. Focus on the use of grid methods and compact methods to carry out calculations. MUST: Multiply TU x U SHOULD: Multiply HTU x U CHALLENGE: Multiply (H)TU x TU LO: To identify sequence rules. Review knowledge of sequences and rule identification with the class. Explore how sequences can involve numbers, shapes and letters. Children to continue sequences. When exploring number sequences, make link to times table groups. E.g. 3, 6, 9, 12… Next number is… Focus on continuing and completing sequences, by identifying the difference between known numbers and using this to identify missing values. AG: Supports circles / RM: Completes sequences involving shapes or colours. INDEPENDENT

Give yourself a break. Help yourself to plans that you can adapt and free up your Sundays. For year 6, first half Autumn term. Planning for : English Maths Geography Homework P.E. Reading Science SODA Zip has the lot. I’ve put sample ones in ordinary download. sample : Main input:Main Teaching 1 10 minutes (10.50am – 11am) Share LO and S/C. TTYP – why do authors use descriptive vocabulary? Take feedback and jot down ideas for the working wall – elicit the idea that, as a writer, it is our job to create an image in the reader’s mind. Show the part of ‘Matilda’ where the main character approaches Crunchem Hall for the first time. 22 min 30 to 24 min 30. Take part in ‘Book Talk’ on this visual text: How did we feel about Matilda when we watched her walk into the school under the arch? How did we feel about the school buildings and environment? What impressions have we made about Miss Trunchbull? How were we made to feel like that? How did the director manipulate our emotions? Show the ‘Likes, dislikes, patterns and puzzles’ board and explain the task . Task 1 11am-11.10am Engaging with the visual text. A – Australia group (Level 3a/4c): Children to fill in an individual ‘like/dislikes’ board. Children to focus particularly on the ‘patterns and puzzles’ sections. Working independently. Extension task – children to annotate a still from the film with adjectives to describe the setting. BA – Brazil group (Level 3b/c): TA to support and extend. Children to fill in an individual ‘like/dislikes’ board. SEN/BA – Mexico group (Level 2): Working with teacher on a guided like/dislikes board. Extending children to talking about the atmosphere. Main Teaching 2 10 minutes (11.10am – 11.20am) Share some ideas from the task and explain that now we are fully immersed in the text, we are going to start to transfer the clip into a written text. TTYP – what does ‘atmosphere’ mean? Talk and agree that it means: a feeling or mood created by a particular place. I am going to attempt to describe the setting AND the atmosphere to the reader. I am going to write in third person and past tense. Elicit the use of the senses for a setting description. Model write with reference to s/c and sentence trick cards.

Gathered together my lessons for year 5 Maths and English for a particular year. There’s about a year’s worth in there. Plenty of great ideas. the zip has the lot. the general download a few to have a look at. Sample planning : Start by showing the word ‘Instructions’ – TTYP what does this mean? Come back together and establish that instructions are a set of commands given to help someone do or create something. Show the children a recipe and the instructions as to how to play Sevens using cards. Look at the instructions. What do children notice about how these are laid out? They are given in an order. They are bullet-pointed. Each sentence is fairly short. There are many ‘bossy’ verbs: ‘place’, ‘play’, ‘turn’ etc. Explain that we call these ‘imperative’ verbs – an imperative is a command. Discuss why it is helpful to have ‘bossy’ verbs and short clear sentences. There is a title which tells you what is to be achieved. Numbers or time connectives used e.g. 1, 2, 3 or later, next - are used to show chronological order. Create a features list on the working wall by sticking post it notes onto a piece of sugar paper –these can be used throughout the unit as a game to start the lesson. Divide the class into three teams. Deal out seven cards to each team and the teacher! Play a little of the game of sevens, following the instructions. Demonstrate how we can follow the instructions to play. Return to features of instructions displayed on working wall. What can you remember about these? Children turn to a partner and tell them 3 different features. Report back & discuss. Show children the instructions checklist (working wall). Have we mentioned all of these features? Ask children to think of a new idea for a card game. Use a talking partner & brainstorm a game idea on whiteboards. Gather everyone’s ideas/discuss the concepts. Pick one idea. Decide how many players we will need & how to play it. Allow children time with talking partners to practice playing the game. Ask some children to demonstrate. How will we write the instructions? What comes first? (Title, subheading.) What is our first instruction? Repeat for a few more sentences.

About a week’s worth. Mixture of English and Maths with but on Remembrance Sunday. Maths deals with area, English with journalistic writing. Private Peaceful by Michael Murpurgo covered. sample Display the image from the front of the book. What does the title of the book tell you? What could the book be about? Why do you think that? Introduce the title. Children to identify what the book is about? What is the theme? Genre? What makes you think this? Children to make predictions about the book in groups using the cover – share and discuss ideas. Share extract from blurb ‘As young Thomas Peaceful looks back over his childhood from the battlefields of the First World War, his memories are full of family life in the countryside.’ 5ws and predictions modelled by CT. What has changed? Why has your opinion changed? What questions and predictions can you make now? Children to be reminded of the previous lesson. What did we learn? What do we think the text book is about? What happened in chapter one? Play BBC schools episode 1 - Children are to be given the first paragraph of the book. What is the theme? What is the genre of the book? Children to use talk partners and class discussion to list the characters involved in the first chapter and paragraph. Who are the characters we have met? What do we know about Tommo and his older brother Charlie? What is their relationship like? In this chapter, Tommo starts a new school – how would he be feeling about this? Look at the kindness of Molly – why does she act this way? Why doesn’t big Joe go to school? How would this be different today?

Week’s planning. sample : L.O. To apply understanding of multiplication facts. Knowledge Harvest: What do chn know about multiplication and place value? I.e. when multiplying using the formal method, numbers need to be set out accurately, what methods do the children know? i.e. partitioning and formal written method. Have 5x2x6 on the board. What is the answer? How do I work this out? Once chn have got the answer, discuss whether it matters if the numbers are in any order. Resources: Dice: 1 between 2 Vocab: Multiplication, number facts, digit, numbers, single digit, LO: To revise calculation of multiples of 10. Have some numbers on the board. Can chn partition them? Discuss that in 4567, the “4” has a value of “4000”. Link this to the Place Value grid (ThHTU). Remind chn that the units column is now called the “ones” column. Have a 356 x 10 on the board. How can we work this out? Discuss different methods that the chn may come up with. Do chn (LA) realise that you can move the digits, or will they try to use the formal method? Clear up any misconceptions that we just add a zero or move the decimal point. Adult to remind chn of the clue. Look at the amount of zeroes to see how many places the numbers need to be moved.
