All 100 words from the Year 3 and 4 spelling word list put into contextualised sentences. Children can then use the sentences to work out the meaning of each word.
This can be used as part of a larger activity or as a quick oral and mental starter at the beginning of each lesson.
Regular use of this will teach children how to infer the meaning of a word by using the contextualised sentences behind them.

To support teachers’ understanding of key topics and concepts in the Primary History National Curriculum, we have created these handy subject knowledge guides with enough information for teachers to learn about the topics that they are teaching.

The units covered in these History Subject Knowledge Guides are:
Ancient Egyptians
Ancient Greeks
Ancient Maya
Ancient Sumer
Anglo-Saxons in Britain
Bronze Age Britain
Changing Power of British Monarchy
Early Islamic Civlisation
Indus Valley
Iron Age Britain
Kingdom of Benin

Cognitive Learning Strategies Display
Cognitive learning strategies are different ways that we can teach children in the classroom to retain new information and draw on information that they already know.
They are a vital tool in ensuring that children become lifelong learners inside and outside of the classroom.
Teaching children these strategies will make sure that they are able to take on board new information and retain it, while selecting the best methods to store that information for a later date.
These cognitive learning strategies cards can be printed, cut and displayed in your classroom as they are taught to children and used as an aide-memoire to support them in identifying the most suitable method for drawing on, and retaining, information.
The following learning strategies identified are:
repeat, repeat, repeat
make a list
summarise it in your own words
connect to something you know
write it down
make a rhyme or story
test it with yourself or a friend
say it in order
physically do it
teach it to someone
elaborate in more detail
give it space (come back to it later)
draw a picture or diagram
dual code with text and pictures
learning something else alongside it (interleave)
can do, can’t do… yet
make a mnemonic or acronym
group or pair

This can be used as part of a larger activity or as a quick oral and mental starter at the beginning of each lesson.
Regular use of this will teach children how to infer the meaning of a word by using the contextualised sentences behind them.

Multi-skills games for PE to play indoor or outdoor. Simple appearance in monochrome for use in classrooms wanting to reduce over-stimulation through excessive colour. Games are suitable for children of any age, but will require some reading and interpretation of the rules.
Resource can be used by teachers for PE lessons, or put out as part of a school’s outdoor/indoor PE provision.
There are 7 different games in total in this resource - each one prints on A4.
A5 cards with 40 famous people, or significant individuals, from history written to the understanding of a Year 1-Year 2 child.
Each card contains at least 3 facts that children can read independently.
These are great when used as provision based learning in a classroom as they expose children to a range of different people from history.
A collection of word and .pdf documents of simple lined paper.
These can be used for various causes. The .pdf document can be dragged onto publisher or powerpoint files, or interactive whiteboard software, to give you a lined background.
This is useful when modelling writing to young children.
You can choose from different sizes of paper, A3, A4, and A5, as well as different orientations (portrait and landscape).
I have also made them with different widths between each line: 10mm for younger writers, and 7mm for more experienced writers.
Year 3 and 4 Fronted Adverbial worksheet based on a stepped-approach to teaching grammar.
Starts by giving a description of what the grammatical target looks like, before working through increasingly complex levels of difficulty to support children internalising and using the grammar skill independently. Children will remember, apply and analyse the grammar being used correctly and incorrectly before attempting to write their own.
Designed to allow children to write these into their books, rather than on them. Supports greater depth writers by allowing them to write multiple versions of some of the more complex sentences.
12 Fact Files for countries of the world, including England, Scotland, Wales, France, China, Australia, and North America, plus a few others.
Also includes a vocabulary list at the end containing appropriate language for human and physical geography.
You can also use the template at the beginning for children to make notes on the different countries in their own words. This will support internalising learning.
Word lists of all phonic sounds from Phase 2-5. Children read words using the word list of the sound that they are struggling with.
Great way for supporting children’s early phonics intervention.
Appraisal (Performance Management) is a necessary part of school.
These simple documents allow senior leaders to support the development of teachers across school.
They are different from other appraisal documents as they are used as an ongoing record of information that are updated whenever monitoring takes place. This way, all of the information that senior leaders gather on teacher performance are centralised on one document - the teacher’s performance management documentation.
The pack contains:
Appraisal / Performance Management Documentation
Wellbeing Audit
Guidance (on how to use the documents)
These are particularly effective when used alongside other monitoring documents such as:
