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.

Roman artefact investigation

Roman artefact investigation

(0)
To begin our Roman topic, after discussing how we know about the past, and the difference between primary and secondary sources, children handled replica artefacts and discussed what they thought they were used for/made from. They chose a few of the artefacts and recorded their ideas on the worksheet. We then revealed what the artefacts were called and what they were for and completed the final column. They got housepoints for being close! The children then made observational drawings inside the picture frame of some of the artefacts using sketch pencils.

3D - 3D number line: Do it/Stretch it/Solve it

3D - 3D number line: Do it/Stretch it/Solve it

(0)
This is a worksheet for subtraction of 3 digit numbers from a 3 digit number using the number line method. This method is used to underpin understanding that ‘finding the difference’ between two numbers can be done by counting forwards or backwards as the gap between the numbers is the same. I usually demonstrate this visually with a human number line! You can adapt the ‘stretch it’ section to include formal written methods rather than number lines if desired.

Earthquakes!

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!
