Resources for administering a test over 2 days to identify the spelling levels of your cohort in order to group them effectively. A set of spelling sheets and a crossword for the topic of WW2.
Start by planning the problem effectively and then you’re more likely to have a great story.
Ten clips to show just the main problem of the movies they’re from. To support children’s story writing planning - help them to unpick what a problem can be and how to identify what will help them solve it.
The little mermaid 2) Frozen 3) Finding Nemo 4) Tangled 5) Monsters Inc. 6) Aladdin 7) Toy Story 8) Beauty and the Beast 9) Storks 10) Paddington.
I do not own the copyright for any of these clips, merely the combination and key questions between.

I have written out the Christmas story (with a little poetic license) to make it more accessible for children in KS1 and LKS2. 4 A4 pages with a PSHE slant of the 'characters' being ordinary people.
"Joseph was an ordinary man. A normal, down-to-earth, regular kind of guy. He was Jewish, part of God’s chosen people and, like all of his family and friends, he took God VERY seriously. That’s just the way things were .... ... ... When Joseph found out that Mary was going to have a baby, he was really concerned. He was worried that everyone would say nasty things about Mary, and about him. He knew that some people would be rude to them and he wasn’t sure if he wanted to hang around for that. That night, Joseph had the clearest dream he had ever had. "
I have put a screen shot of each question from the 2015 sample reasoning paper into a Notebook file to use with a Smart Board so the questions can be written on, on the board. I will be using it to go through strategies and misconceptions from when the children took this paper last week. I have included the individual screen shots saved as picture files for if you wish to print them individually for practice or if you wish to make your own presentation file in a different format.
I have put a screen shot of each individual question into slides in 'Notebook' for Smart board so it can be written on, on the board. I will be using it to go through the paper the children sat last week to discuss the strategies we used and any misconceptions. I have also included each individual question 'picture' for if you want to print out ones they struggle with to practice or put into a presentation of your own in a different format.
An initial wander into the world of negative numbers for year 5. I have included the first day's plan for three sets, the learning intention with 'I can' statements and 11 worksheets that get progressively harder. (The hardest sheets have answers too.) This day's work was written for an average year 5 cohort, ranging from A.R.E. year 3 to A.R.E. year 5. The initial set has negative numbers in context with number lines to support, the second set has more abstract calculations branching into reasoning at the higher end and the third set has very complex abstract calculations such as 4 - (-6)-(-8).
An overview of a unit of work about comparing our local area to a town in Poland. We visited Shoreham High Street and here are the activities and worksheets we used including a sheet for someone working at P8. An ICT activity to complete beforehand too. Also included a whole bunch of photos of Shoreham.
Seven sets of ten progressively harder 'missing number' calculations. Headed with a learning intention that clearly shows the level and statement of that level. From 3b 'I can use my knowledge of number bonds to 100 to help me find a missing number.' to 5b 'I can work through two steps to find a missing number.'
Supported by circles to colour in, 6 levels of differentiated fractions to order. The first 2 levels as with the same denominator, the second 2 levels are 2 different denominators in the same multiple and the third 2 levels are 3 different denominators in the same multiple. These were made for my year 5's - the Lower ability set are working from year 3 objectives while the middle ability and higher are working from year five objectives.
