Short Christmas Play Ideal for Assembly The Story of Christmas Year 4 Assembly
A nice play for a Christmas assembly.
About 12 pages.
Sample :
Part 1:
KIRA - Narrator 1: The time leading up to Christmas is a busy one, and sometimes we can forget what the message of good news it brings. We would like you to imagine that this good news event is being broadcast to you today, live!
EMILY - Narrator 2: Our report, and the beginning of Christianity, is set in Nazareth. In the town, Jewish families were living under Roman occupation. These families had become poor due to King Herod’s heavy taxes. Nearly all the money the Jews earned went to Herod and the Romans so that they could afford new weapons and lovely food and clothes.
RICKY - Narrator 3: In the town lived a very religious Jewish family: the daughter of this family was called Mary. When Mary was about 14 years old she became engaged to Joseph, a talented carpenter.
SONG: Nazareth (NATIVITY) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNDcWruJ4IY
Things are really cool in Nazareth.
Our city is full of joy,
Cause this is where girl meets boy.
Barely had a school in Nazareth.
There they join hand in hand,
side by side, they will stand.
A wedding is being planned.
Here in Nazareth.
Nazareth our place to live.
Always willing to forgive.
Nazareth will bring us well.
We can hear those wedding bells.
Feeling in a fix in Nazareth.
Rules are to be obeyed,
Arrangements are being made.
Got to get your kicks in Nazareth
Baby, you’ll run away
Start at a brand new day
Still we can not betray
Good old Nazareth.”
<Play news theme – Have playing on a screen during broadcast?>
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rj5Rc60fJ2M
ASHTON - Newsreader 1: Hello. And welcome to this breaking news update. We begin our report with the news of wedding preparations that are under way for Mary and Joseph who are pledged to be married. Tonight, however, Mary was woken from a deep sleep by a gentle voice.

Back to School Year 4 Maths Planning Autumn Term
Weekly plans for the dreaded back to school Autumn term.
Cut and paste and adapt for your own personal use. I hated those Sundays ruined by planning.
example Today we are learning about decimals to two decimal places.
First ask what are decimals? Establish that decimals show us part of the number that is not a whole.
Display a number line with 0-1 with 9 unlabelled divisions.
In between 0 and 1 we have intervals that represent tenths (not tens). Decimals are like fractions the number line is divided into ten parts so each one is one tenth. Tenths are decimals to one place as there is only one digit after the decimal point. Give children magnified glass and ruler using the ruler ask children to look at the tenths in-between each cm.
When we write tenths as a decimals we write 0.1, 0.2… allow children to continue this asking them to stop when they get to the next whole number. What is the decimal point for? To separate the whole from its decimals.
In between the tenths there are hundredths (not hundreds) display 0.4 to 0.5 with unmarked intervals in between. Ask can anyone tell me what these intervals will be labelled? 0.41, 0.42…
Establish that 3.7 is bigger then 3.56. Ask why might I think 3.56 is bigger?
Why is 3.7 bigger?
When do we use decimals in real life? Place objects on a each table for the group to feel. Which one is heavier? Lighter? Get children to order them in order of weight. Give each table some scales, ask them to see if they were right and also to write the weights that they can read and make a note of them. Select some children to attempt to read the weights. Who has ever cooked or baked? What units of measurement would you use?
What units of measurements have we used here to way our objects?
How many grams are there in a kilogram? Give children some examples and ask them to convert the weights.
Model how to use scales weigh different objects ask class to read the scale.
Read scales and convert from grams to kilograms and vice-versa. L/A
TA support
To weigh objects and read on a scale.
EXT: Order objects in order of weight using estimation skills
Back to School Year 5 Literacy Greek Myths Worksheets Planning Powerpoints

It’s all in the zip file. I’ve put some examples in the general upload but there is TONS more in the included zip file.
Lots of different types of planning as my schools were all different.
There’s lots of free stuff too that is adaptable e.g. year 2 work.
sample :
Today we are going to read ‘Titch’ together. Read Titch under the visualiser. Does this remind you something that has happened to you? Can children identify with the characters/settings and events? Discuss with talk partners and beach ball/bean bag ideas.
Look at some cvc words; start with hen; who can spell this word on the IWB? What is the 1st sound? Get a child to write it down. Can you tell your talk partner some words that rhyme with this? Make a list. Robins/Bears [AA]
Talk about how Titch might feel. Do they feel like that?
Children to write sentence/s about how the children feel. Chicks/Giraffes [A]
Talk about how Titch might feel. Do they feel like that?
Children to write a sentence about how the children feel. Octopus [BA]
Talk about how Titch might feel. Do they feel like that? CT/TA to scribe some sentences about how the children feel. Listen to sentences that children have came up with about the story. Can we suggest any other sentences about ‘Titch’. Teacher to scribe them on IWB and save them for later.
Show chn the picture from the front cover of Lost and Found.
Start up a discussion asking the question: Who are they?
Depending on chns responses ask other questions – who, why, when, what, where, how.
Show chn question hand – use this to remind chn of the types of questions we can ask. PUT HAND AND PICTURE ON WORKING WALL FOR CHN TO REFER TO.
Model recording some responses to the questions asked on post it notes. Mild: Talk about the picture on the front cover
Spicy: Think of questions that we could ask to find out about the story
Hot: Share responses to the different questions asked
Extra Hot: Write responses making phonetically plausible attempts.

Money Week Year 5 Year 6 Finances Banks Shopping
A nice little unit on financial planning.
Some calculations required for better financial knowledge.
Introduce ‘My Money’ week to children. Explain that we are going to spend all week discussing money, using mathematical operations, setting a budget and thinking about how we will deal with money in the future.
Activity One
Come back together and allow groups to share mind maps. Lead into a discussion on what money is; use online dictionary to look for definition. Come to the conclusion that it is a medium of exchange; we exchange money for goods or services.
Make a list on the IWB of things which people use money for. Separate the list by highlighting things which people need and things that they want.
TTYP – what is the ‘currency’ of the UK? Explain that it is called sterling and it is split into pounds and pence.
Use PPT to check that children recognise all notes and coins of sterling.
Activity One
Children work in groups to mind map ‘money’.
Each group to have three colours –create a key to show things they know, things they think they know and questions they have. If I gave you £1000 right now, what would spend it on?
What might you wish you had spent it on in the future?
Can the children name any currencies of other countries?
(Euro, US dollar, Aus dollar, Yuan China, Rupee India etc)
Christmas Planning Year 5 Three weeks worth English Maths
Three weeks of planning. Plus you can use other planning included for free from different years.

Activity 10 mins
Return to image of the Adventurer and Professor Erit. Using a different coloured pencil, chn should add information about these characters
Main 20 mins
Give chn an image of the setting and ask them to mind-map descriptive words, phrases or sentences they could use to describe the narrative setting.
