Year 1 - Whole year's worth of weekly plans - maths, literacy + medium terms for other subjects

8 Resources
Hi there, I thought I'd share the love and give others a chance to benefit from the hours and hours worth of planning that goes into each weekly plan. These are my own plans for the whole of the year. You will obviously need to tweak as some half terms are longer/shorter, or INSET days may vary. I've also included all my weekly timetables with a weekly overview on it + homework for the year! Hope it helps somebody in need!

Hi all, I've uploaded my: Literacy + Numeracy planning, weekly timetables and also learning challenge planning (Science, history, geography, art, dt etc) medium term plans for Summer 1. You'll also find 'overall coverage' which is how I divided up the new curriculum as a snap shot over all the half terms of the year and the running themes. I've uploaded as is for you to tweak or use as you need to. Many many hours of work here so thought I'd share the love and save you some time. I'm also uploading my planning for the other half terms as well, so if these were of use for you then check those out too.
White Rose Year 4: Spring Block 3 - Fractions. Week 3 (of 4)

White Rose Year 4: Spring Block 3 - Fractions. Week 3 (of 4)

(0)
I’ve uploaded my White Rose ‘Fractions’ Spring Block 3 planning. Including resources I’ve used from the White Rose (turned into an easily printable format and visual PPT to share). This is week 3 of 4. This is my own personal planning which I’ll be using in my class in a couple of weeks. Hope you find it useful, it’s not made specifically for TES so there will most likely be some spelling errors etc Week 1 - https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/white-rose-year-4-spring-block-3-fractions-week-1-of-4-12056297 Week 2 - https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/white-rose-year-4-spring-block-3-fractions-week-2-of-4-12070365 Week 3 - here Week 4 - https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/white-rose-year-4-spring-block-3-fractions-week-4-of-4-12076664 If you’ve used my planning previously please note the following: This is the second time using an evolved format. As a school we are continuing to deepen our understanding of mastery for all and all children working within the same tasks each lesson. This allows the class to move forward as a whole. Differentiation comes from support, visuals and deepening with the same task rather than moving on. We have moved to a ‘weekly’ success criteria (WALT/WILFs) and each day working on a different WILF within that. Our WALT and WILFs for the weekly snapshot are moving towards more formality in terms of technical language and directly mapping onto the learning and the curriculum so the children are really clear about exactly what they are learning. I’ve then introduced ‘learning chunks’ with 4-5 chunks per lesson introducing new concepts, consolidating, recapping, mini tasks or problem solving activities. I plan in exactly the same way as before but have made it clearer through these chunks where we are moving on or linking to new ideas. I think this makes it clearer when to bring the whole class together to self-assess or work through answers at the end of each chunk. This then makes it easier to know where the gaps of the class as a whole are, where intervention is needed or if a lesson needs to be split over two lessons where would be a good time to stop. It will also make it clearer what ideas need to be recapped at a glance. As a school we’re also still using White Rose and following it, however we’re only using the resources as an when they’re applicable to the needs of the class. I’ve included all the resources from the White Rose on a PPT and in a printable format and will supplement them in as and when. I love planning using it and it makes it much clearer for me to use and follow. Maths is my absolute favourite thing so I hope it’s still just as useful for you – I plan for myself and then upload to help others, but remember my resources and planning aren’t make specifically just for TES.

Hi all, I'm RE coordinator (amongst other things) at my school and thought I'd share the the whole school planning I've put in place. We have a termly RE week so it's divided up in that way. I've also added in trips and visitors etc to cover all bases and so that we aren't duplicating across school. It has objectives for each year group broken down for each term. I've also then added planning ideas and activities for each. I've added our policy and also the Nottinghamshire Agreed Syllabus for RE where the objectives have been taken from. Hopefully I've saved you some work! :)

This is week 4 of 4.

Hope you find it useful, it’s not made specifically for TES so there will most likely we some spelling errors etc The warm ups 1-4 that are included in this planning don’t relate at all to the White Rose topic and is something I’m trialling personally - spending 1/3 of the lesson re-capping and revisiting prior learning. And since it’s my personal planning it’s mentioned on here as I didn’t want to have to delete it all just to upload. If you want to include them in your lesson as well then they’re all uploaded separately elsewhere. Warm up 1 - Write today’s date with Roman numerals (no resource) Warm up 2 - Fluency PPT adding within 20 ( https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/240-addition-and-subtraction-facts-within-20-ppt-resource-self-assessed-11899007) Warm up 3 - always the ‘closing the gap’ PPT where over the year they revisit key ideas from the Y1-Y3 curriculum (Autumn 1 - https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/year-4-autumn-1-maths-closing-the-gap-ppt-revisiting-y1-y2-y3-objectives-daily-11942385) Warm up 4 - re-visting something I know they also need to work on as a class (I tend to do this on the spot/with whatever resources are already in my classroom/sometimes explained in more detail on the planning)

Phonics - soundstrips to use on tables

(0)
I use two sound strips to support my Year 1 class in their writing at their tables - I borrowed these from the school I did my training placement at, so I cannot take credit for them! The first contains all the sounds your class need to phonetically attempt any word. The second sound strip colour groups different ways to make the same sound. I have also included the word doc I use to assess which sounds the children can read and write. These assessments help inform my teaching in the lead up to the phonics screening test.
