sample planning Introduce the section of work. Explain that we are going to use a very interesting focus text to complete some narrative writing, art work and drama. Have a photocopy of the front cover and blurb for ‘The Savage’ by David Almond. TTYP and discuss “What are your initial responses?” (Ask children who may have read the book, not to give it away). Come back together and discuss children’s ideas from the blurb and front cover. What sort of story is it going to be? What genre? What age group/gender do you think it may be aimed at? Does anyone know anything about David Almond? His style of writing? His previous work? Share that he was born into a large family in Newcastle; his books are very popular and critically acclaimed (what does this mean?). His books are very philosophical (meaning) and often appeal to both adults and children. Share with children that ‘The Savage’ deals with issues of loss, sadness, bullying and love. Read the first two chapters of the focus text. Come back together and discuss. What does the use of two different fonts tell us? Discuss how this is a story within another story. Why is Blue writing about ‘The Savage’? What is it helping him to do? Might there be something of Blue in ‘The Savage’? Might he be expressing his anger at what has happened to his family?

100 worksheets. 100 answer sheets. At least 10 questions per sheet. Pupils have to enter the next two numbers in the sequence. They get harder so that later sheets include decimals and 20 questions per sheet.

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

36 page pdf. Maths for each of 13 weeks. sample : LO: To reflect shapes across a horizontal or vertical mirror line. KEY QUESTION: DO I NEED TO USE A MIRROR TO REFLECT A 2D SHAPE? Review the term reflection with the children. How would the children reflect a simple shape like a square across a mirror line? Show the children a more complex shape. How would the children go about reflecting this shape? Explore the use of a mirror using a large version of a shape on the working wall. If you hadn’t got access to a mirror, how would you go reflect the shape? Focus on process of identifying vertices within shapes, counting to the mirror line. DS: Supports Triangles during teaching. AG: Supports Squares during teaching. LO: To draw and reflect a shape across a 45 degree mirror line. Show the children a shape and have them model how to reflect across a vertical and horizontal mirror line. Show them a mirror line that is set at 45 degrees. Discuss possible strategies for carrying out the task of reflecting across the mirror line. Make sure the children stay on the grid lines and follow to the mirror line, then away from the mirror line to make a right angle. MW: target high Focus Children within teaching. Check during lesson. LO: To reflect a shape that crossing a 45˚ mirror line. KEY QUESTION: HOW CAN I REFLECT A SHAPE THAT CROSSES THE MIRROR LINE? Address misconceptions from previous lesson. Give the children an enlarged version of a triangle that crosses a diagonal mirror line. As a class, identify way in which the shape can be reflected across the mirror line. Take each point and reflect across a perpendicular set of gridlines. Model the use of start and end points. Whatever is in the upper part of the mirror line needs to be in the lower, vice versa. DS: Supports triangles during lesson. AG: Supports Circles during lesson.

Lots of great planning for an exciting unit. Nice powerpoints. Sample : Share the learning outcome for the unit with the children; share the concept of the working wall. What is narrative? Fact or fiction? Ascertain that this unit is about fiction/narrative/stories. We have three weeks to achieve our learning outcome. Ask children what they know about JK Rowling. Who is she? What is her job? (use correct terminology- she is an ‘author) Where is she from? (Born in Gloucestershire) Can children name any of her books? (Harry Potter series plus several supplements) Etc. Activity One Come back together, show children a picture of JK Rowling – does this help? Children to move to next group’s poster and add any more info that they can now think of. Is there anything they agree/disagree with? Lead into a class discussion on this famous children’s author: Has anybody read any of her books? What are her stories about?

ten page script. Nice piece you can perform in class or to an assemlbly. sample : Narrator: Welcome to our Christmas celebration! Narrator Welcome to INSERT TOWN, where our journey begins! Narrator: Picture our winter scene… Narrator: The air is filled with excitement, the faint hum of an inflatable Santa, blinding Christmas lights line the streets, illuminating the December skies. Narrator: Our story begins in a beautifu; house not too far away from here… Narrator: It is a tale of sadness, humour and love. If you are young or old, our story is one you will love! Narrator : Oh no it isn’t! Narrator: Oh yes it is! So sit back and enjoy the show, a magical tale of a young girl called Cinderella. Narrator: It’s December 23rd. A bitterly cold winter’s eve.

Planning to teach Shakespeare’s play. Great powerpoints. Sample planning : Begin by introducing the new topic and the learning outcome. We will be studying ‘older’ literature. Explain that older literature is defined as anything written before 1914 but we are going to look at much older than this! Show a picture of William Shakespeare: children to TTYP – Who is this man? What is he famous for? Can you name any of his works? Come back together and elicit that William Shakespeare was an author – not of stories but of plays and sonnets (poems). Talk about some of his more famous work and explain that he wrote 38 plays and over 160 sonnets. Shakespeare was born in 1564 and died in 1616. He produced most of his work between 1589 and 1613 – why do you think he wrote mostly plays rather than stories? Elicit that he was an actor so he loved the stage and he intended his works to be acted out rather than just read and also because of the times. TV and film were not entertainment options and the majority of people couldn’t read so going to the theatre or watching an outside performance was very popular. List the main characters on the board, to include: The Capulets Juliet Lady Capulet (Juliet’s mother) Lord Capulet (Juliet’s father and head of the family) Tybalt (Juliet’s cousin and enemy of Romeo) Nurse (Juliet’s nanny) Paris (wants to marry Juliet) The Montagues Romeo
