In this guide, we look at the different ways you can use Flipped Lessons to make an impact in your classroom.
A flipped classroom is one where students are introduced to new content though technology without teacher input.
In this blended learning approach, face-to-face learning is mixed with independent study via technology.
Primary Earth is working to create a collection of Flipped Classroom Lessons on YOUTUBE which allows teachers and pupils to bring Flipped Lessons into your classroom.
I created this support sheet to help children with their independent writing in Year 6 leading up moderation. It includes “writing recipes” to help children structure their sentences.

Primary Earth presents an easy and detailed way to track your classes progress though out the year and keep it in a handy file ready for Ofsted, parents evening or important meeting. Keep track of behaviour and parent meeting notes.
