Ascertain that it might not be a good idea to live on just a few foods such as chips and that we need a variety of foods in order to function properly.
Scan in some food labels.
Display the food labels that the children should have brought in from home. What information do we find on the labels? Make a list of some of the key words on the labels. Why do manufacturers put information on food?

Big Write Big Writing Teaching Materials Lessons Planning Creative Writing
During my time as a teacher, I enjoyed doing a Big Write or Big Writing.
I’ve gathered all my materials together.
I liked it as it kept the children occupied all week, leading to a big write on Friday Mornings.
There’s some great ideas and powerpoints in here.
I’ve included a lot of Greek Myths stuff as I remember this as the best Big Write.
sample :
To understand the features of myths
Introduce the topic of Myths and Legends. Mind map any ideas about ‘myths’ children already have.
Explain that the class will be building up their own myth. With each group working on a different aspect of the myth. Show success criteria – list of features of a myth.
Read Theseus and the Minotaur, pick out the different features of the myth, evident in this story.
Each group will discuss and write ideas for each section.
LA (Supported by Ta)
Group 1: Describe the hero of the myth.
Group 2: Describe the monster of the myth.
Children will write ideas, words on post-it notes.
If this was a full lesson:
Put together all the different groups’ ideas to build a storyboard for the class myth.
As a class, decide on a title for our class ‘myth’.
Children can: identify all the features of myths
Features of a ‘myth’
· When and where is it set?
· A hero/heroine
· What is the problem?
· Does the hero have special powers?
· Fantastical beast
· The hero’s journey
· The conflict
· The solution
· How does it end?
· Is it interesting?
MA (Supported by ta)
Group 3: Describe the setting of the myth.
Group 4: Describe the journey the hero will make.
Children will write ideas, words on post-it notes.

Grammar Teaching Materials Powerpoints Teaching Materials Worksheets
Gathered together all my Grammar teaching materials from Primary school.
The zip contains them all. Over 170 mb of stuff.
I’ve included a few examples in the ordinary upload so you can look.
sample:
Start by reviewing homework and making a list for the working wall.
Define each type of word: Noun, adjective, verb and adverb. Build up a sentence as we go.
Show the children a picture on the whiteboard of a horse galloping and of a lightning bolt. Children to write down 3 (LA) or 5(MA and HA) important nouns from the picture. Share. On the left of the noun, children to write an adjective to modify or describe the noun. Share. After the noun, children to write a verb and then an adverb to qualify the verb.
e.g. The black horse galloped elegantly along the beach.
Children to have 5 minutes to read and digest their new writing target. Ask any questions if necessary.
Praise the children on yesterday’s literacy work – they showed knowledge of the function of nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs (HA showed knowledge of the difference between common, proper and pro nouns).
Children to name a range of punctuation – I record on the board (I do not add to it at this point).
Ask volunteers to illustrate uses of the punctuation named. Look on the punctuation pyramid – have we named any L5 punctuation? This is what we should be aiming at all the time.
Children to have a variety of sentences to up level punctuation on their whiteboards.
Come back to ‘The Mysteries of Harris Burdick’. Read through all of the captions and talk about ‘reading’ the illustration. Allow children time to talk about the ‘mystery’ – what do they think happened to Harris Burdick?
Choose a picture from ‘The Mysteries…’ and list all of the questions which it provokes. What do children think of the pictures? Do the captions answer any of the questions?
Talk about the settings in the pictures – often they are recognisable, familiar settings where things are not as they seem. Explain that we would call this ‘Stories in a familiar setting’.
Model the task.

Music Planning Beethoven Greig Mozart Tchaikovsky Composer
Planning from my time in Primary Schools. PRUNING NEEDED!
Lots of music info.
Lots of great composers.
Beethoven
Greig
Mozart
Tchaikovsky
Sample :
TOPIC: Listening and Understanding Music KS1LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVENRESOURCES: dvd copy of Disney’s Fantasia; Beethoven/Pastoral sheet; pictures of orchestral instrumentsLESSON ONEWatch the Pastoral Symphony excerpt, and explain that this very old film uses music that is even older. The artists listened to the story in the music and created their story to fit it. Having watched the excerpt, ask the children what they noticed about how the music and the cartoon went together. Think about the peaceful music for the peaceful scenes; the angry music for the storm; the way the winged horses alight in time to the music etc.Watch a second time, pausing as appropriate to highlight the interaction of music and cartoon. Start to spot instruments.LESSON TWOListen to the Fantasia version of the Pastoral without the cartoon. Invite the children to recognise instruments. Show them pictures of the instruments as they name them, discussing how they are played, how their sounds differ from each other, and why they suit the different aspects of the music. Discuss the differing roles within an orchestra and look at the layout of the orchestra. Invite the children to draw a picture of their favourite instrument and explain why it is their favourite.LESSON THREEWatch the Fantasia excerpt again and remind the children that this story is the artists’ idea of the musical story. Explain that the artists used mythological characters because these were very popular in paintings at the time the music was composed (you could show them some). Invite the children to listen to the music and write their own story, or create their own picture either using the mythological characters or their own ideas.LESSON FOUR Explain that the class is going to listen to the story of the man who composed the Pastoral Symphony, and then write about him and his famous piece of music. Provide the children with paper to make notes should they wish, and the sheets to write up their findings when they are ready.
