I am currently a year 3 teacher and English lead. I endeavour to only publish resources which have been well thought out to match curriculum objectives and hope that they will be useful to other colleagues saving them time wherever possible.

Pompeii activity mats and video links

(0)
Explore the history and geography of Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii using these 2 activity mats. These worksheets are useful for both topics on the Romans, or topics on volcanoes/earthquakes and reinforce tier 2/3 vocabulary such as: archaeologist, primary and secondary (sources). The first video link shows an animation of ‘A Day in Pompeii’ which has no narration just powerful imagery of what happend that day in 79AD. There is also a second link showing and describing the lost city of Pompeii. These worksheets are fully editable and are also available as part of a bundle of Romans activities which includes a full class assembly on Boudicca’s rebellion, or as part of a bundle on ‘Natural Hazards’ which contains a range of resources to support topics on volcanoes and earthquakes.

What is a volcano?  Volcanoes around the world.

What is a volcano? Volcanoes around the world.

(0)
This collection of activity sheets first considers how a volcano is formed, labelling the parts of a volcano and focusing on tier 3 technical vocabulary. (I did this after showing a powerpoint on volcanoes as well as some video clips of volcanoes erupting/timelapse lava flow). Then locate some major volcanoes around the world using the given map and accompanying sheet (alongside ipads/laptops for internet use and atlases with world maps/maps of continents). NB: The first 6 minutes 45 seconds of the BBC programme ‘Africa with Ade Adepitan’ is fantastic for that wow factor and introducing the idea of volcanoes around the world. It even includes a scene showing where volcanic rock has burst through the walls of someone’s house! Tip: Mount Etna is in Sicily, but Sicily is an autonomous region of Italy.

Earthquakes!

(0)
A trio of activity sheets to be used after the introduction of earthquakes alongside a visual of tectonic plates and earthquake ‘hotspots’ to allow children to investigate for themselves patterns in where earthquakes happen and how earthquakes are measured. Great fun to play an earthquake siren whilst they are working so they can practice the earthquake drill!
