**OBSERVATION LESSON** A co-worker of mine asked would I plan a lesson observation with them on angles. A few years ago, I taught a similar lesson for an observation. Basically, this resource contains: A clear, detailed and differentiated lesson plan A simple but colourful powerpoint to use as a guideline 3 activities differentiated into high, middle and low Angle creators with arrows (just print, laminate and secure with a split pin). This lesson aims to engage a variety of learners. By using the angle creator, visual and kinesthetic learners can practically make the different types of angles that are being taught in this lesson. (Acute, obtuse, reflex, right angle, straight line angle) HA are extended by asking children to label the angles found in 2D shapes and how to measure them by using a protractor. The plenary asks children to spot angles in the clock face. A really enjoyable lesson. Please review.

Four simple worksheets with extensions based on: Apostrophes Speech Marks Inverted Commas Pronouns Children are reminded what the term means and then given progressive tasks to increase their understanding.

This is a weeks worth of planning on place value. It includes alot of mathematical questioning to tap into the children's understanding and allows them to understand the concept in depth. The planning includes links to interactive games online to be used to encourage all types of learners. It also teachers children to look at the 1000 before and 1000 after, aswell as looking at the value of each digit. Children will also be taught how to write a number in words and vice versa. This resource includes a weeks lesson plan and a presentation.

This resource has numerous activities that are extremely well differentiated. These lessons involve teaching children strategies in order to be able to check their answers, such as rounding and estimating, and also finding the inverse. Children are further challenged to use the inverse of addition to solve missing number calculations. Again, this is well differentiated so that all abilities can access the content. This packaged includes many resources, a very detailed lesson plan, and a crystal clear notebook file. The resources have been labelled Bronze (LA), Silver (MA) and Gold (HA). There is also Platinum for G&T children. Included in lesson starters and plenaries are arithmetic tests that again, are differentiated. This keeps children's mathematical knowledge broad and fresh. These tests are available on the SMART notebook. Please review this resource and check out my other resources: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/Morrisr9

This resource contains a detailed lesson plan, powerpoint and lesson starter to help you teach children how to add and subtract fractions with the same denominator. I spent a long time making this resource as I wanted to ensure children understand how to use the correct terminology i.e. numerator, denominator, whole etc. The powerpoint is extremely detailed and contains pictorial representation as well as numerical to satisfy the needs of visual learners also. The powerpoint also contains key questions, encouraging children to explain 'why' something happens. This is very effective for the overall understanding of adding and subtracting fractions. The activities are on the powerpoint, hence why there is no activity attached. There is also a challenge embedded in the plenary aimed to be completed in mixed ability pairs, in order to push on the high ability children and secure the understanding of the class.

A colourful, creative way to keep track of children's knowledge of the timestables. I printed this chart on A3, filled in the children's names and ticked off the timestables as they knew them. We found it was a nice visual way to keep a note of who knew which timestables and it also became a little competitive in who knew the most.

A simple, fun game of dominos to reinforce past tense verbs for EAL children. Just cut them out in domino shape and allow children to match the correct verb with the past tense. One version has some pictures, the other just has the words.

This lesson plan provides children with an opportunity to engage with geometry in a way that should be clear to each individual learner. This lesson plan is well differentiated to the point where each group is challenged while there needs are being bet simultaneously. This plan includes lessons on: 2D shape properties and classification Lines of symmetry Lines of symmetry in irregular shapes 2D shapes in different orientations Classification of triangles. As the title suggests, there are many practical activities involved, including creating a symmetrical robot, practical classification and use of mirrors.

Notebook presentation and lesson plan included. (If you do not have notebook on your computer, you can download Notebook viewer for free). http://notebook-interactive-viewer.software.informer.com/download/#downloading This lesson is based on the discoveries of ancient scientists. It allows children the opportunity to research on specific areas of science and find out what and how they discovered what they did. It also poses questions and allows children to think about what has not yet been discovered and what they would like to be discovered. Check out my other resources too if you get a chance: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/Morrisr9

This is an extremely practical lesson that I used as an introduction to the topic of Ancient Scientists. Children need to carry out experiments that represent different types of research. In one of the experiments, children need to taste chocolate, in another they need to test which ball floats the best etc. This lesson introduces the different types of scientific research in a fun, practical way. My children really enjoyed this lesson and it was a fantastic introduction to the topic. Notebook presentation and lesson plan included.

This resource consists of a history and geography lesson on the Romans. It is the first week in each subject on the topic of the Romans. In History, the children will be thinking about the term history and what it means. They will then discuss and fill in a KWL chart based on the Romans, which is a nice little assessment tool. The children will fill in what they Know about the ROmans and what they Want to know about the Romans. This provides an interest into the topic and children will hope to have their curiosities answered by the end of the topic. The L section of the KWL will be left until the end of the topic where children will fill out what they have Learned. In Geography, the children will be looking at which countries were occupied by the Roman Empire. This lesson looks at using compass skills and atlas work also, which is a great geographical skill in itself. This resource comes with both a history and geography plan, along with two separate presentations to use in the lesson. They are saved as notebooks. If you do not have notebook viewer on your computer you can download it for free online so that you can avail of these presentations. KWL and SEN resource included. Please review this resource :)

This game involves asking the children to roll a dice and read the sound that their counter lands on. When they read the sound, they must think of a word that this sound is in. I played it in mixed ability pairs, the low ability children just had to try and read the sound. It was a lot of fun and they loved it. It contains diagraphs, triagraphs, split diiagraphs and single sound letters for a thorough revision.

Short multiplication game for year 3/4. This resource has differentiated games for high, middle and low ability. The game is explained on the sheet and all you will need is a dice between each pair.

Chapter 2 of the BFG with comprehension questions. My class love the BFG so I decided to create a comprehension on each chapter. Looks at deducing, inferring, italics and spotting similes

A powerpoint I created to encourage critical thinking while converting units of measure. Activity is also available on the powerpoint differentiated. I will attach it as a document also.

I wrote a short piece about a Middle Eastern boy joining a British School and decided to make it into a Year 6 SATS sample paper. The questions are structured exactly like the SATS exams and children can use them as revision in the weeks/months coming up to the SATS exams. I have uploaded it as a PDF and also a word document. Also, I’ve separated the reading material and the questions in two different documents if required. Can be used with year 5s also to get them into the SATS style of questioning. Let me know your thoughts on this resource.

Due to popular demand, I have created an editable CV template to use when writing your own CV for teaching abroad or at home.

As a person who has worked in the Middle East for three years, I have started to recruit with the company I work for. This product is an example of a completed CV, which has proven successful for many candidates. Why am I selling this? When I started applying for jobs in the Middle East, I struggled to make my CV stand out. I wondered: What layout they looked for? What to include? How long should it be? How do I stand out from the hundreds of applicants? This product will take the stress out of applying for you. Just read, edit (to fit your experience) and apply! Happy job hunting!
