PART ONE of TWO
As this is the first time I have shared content in this format (Mac) this is what I use.
Please note this is 15 YEARS worth of Keynotes made on the mac originally for years 3 and 4 although many have been used in older classes and are easily adaptable.
INVALUABLE for anyone with a Mac that uses it for teaching as these are VERY hard to find. (Why I had to make them as I much prefer Keynote.) These took many many hours to make individually.
Many incorporate videos and animations within them and some have been used to achieve outstanding observations. Thats why the file size is so big,
For a MacBook user these are fantastic and many should work on iPad too with Keynote. (Although one or two of the animations may be different and I can't 100% promise all will be formatted perfectly from experience.)
Keynotes year 3/4 - A Massive collection of all the presentations I have made ORIGINAL in Mac format.
Most are self explanatory but have written a few notes of description for some them below to help. Will save Apple users absolutely tonnes of time as I myself use many of these when I go into schools. You really are getting a lot here believe me. (Some written on Keynote '09 so you may want to open on this to avoid conversion.)
- Poetry Creating Images Keynote - Used for an outstanding observation 2 years ago, children went on to write their own beach poems based on the content shown.
- Haunted house keynote - Fantastic for boys writing to get them enthralled.
- Mummification Keynote - Includes video of the mummification process.
- Parental Year 4, shows 'how we do things' in Maths. Includes an EXCELLENT countdown starter that can be used with the children also, (really really effective) but illustrates examples of how we teach in Mathematics at that age. Used in a Maths showcase evening at school.
Please note these will NOT work on windows computers (PowerPoint) without conversion although an excellent site to convert these files is https://cloudconvert.com/key-to-ppt
I have included this particular resource mainly for Apple users.
Please VOTE on this resource if you find it useful
A collection of resources that will be helpful for teaching children the anti-bullying message in higher elementary school classes.
I have also included a list of ideas for anti-bullying week which may be of help to your school / class.
I have also included a short assembly with the excellent short animation Narrated by Kate Winslet and lots of additional resources. (If this embed in the Powerpoint doesn't work I have included the video file as a link in the notes section and as a file here.) I have included the Mac 'Keynote' version of this resource for those of you that own apple computers. (I originally made it here.)
I have also written an example 'anti-bullying letter' example written in shared writing with the children and a 'Dealing with dilemmas' PowerPoint (i.e. what to do in certain situations.)
I have always found the website 'Go-Givers' to be excellent.
NB I do not claim to own the video sections of this resource.
Powerpoint explaining about New Year and why people make resolutions.
I have also included a video about how to say happy new year in several languages from YouTube.
Also a worksheet I made to help children write their own 2016 New Year Resolutions.
I have included a lesson plan / smartboard notebook document and visualiser recording that I made to illustrate the stages of making portraits. Please note the actual video / visualiser recording I made was when we were looking at Nelson Mandela (but the principles are the same.)
JAN 26th, 2016
Could be used as a whole school scheme.
A full set of cursive handwriting worksheets.
The sheets can be used stand alone or as a template for children to use in their handwriting books.
I have also included a few extras
A collection of worksheets for your class which can be used as part of lessons or time-fillers at the end of the day.
Perfect for the newly qualified or experienced teacher.
PowerPoints, Worksheets and lots lots more!
I hope this helps someone out when teaching this fantastic topic!
I have newly converted the Keynote I produced on mummification to PowerPoint format, this is especially good!
I have also included my creative plans when this was the hub of our creative work one year.
I created this quiz for the children when they got back from the EXCELLENT exhibit at Bolton Museum. The questions were obviously pre-prepared and prompts given during the trip activities for a 'memory challenge' when they returned!
A set of differentiated worksheets I made where children have to add the two numbers below to get the final brick of the top of the pyramid.
The harder worksheets require inverse operations. Fantastic for an activity relating to how additional and subtraction are linked, or reinforcing the concept.
A collection of connectives useful for general story writing as opposed to the usual humdrum words,
For example...
Without warning...
With each step...
When they looked back...
and lots more!
This lesson is aimed at using descriptive vocabulary to create an atmosphere with a seaside / beach theme.
This was used as part of an Ofsted lesson observation with excellent feedback.
Delivered to a Year 4/5 mixed age group class.
Includes…

What is ‘Black Friday’ (shopping event.)
How did it originate?
Includes a text in Newspaper style about the event and comprehension questions based on this, ideal for a talking point and could lead into some excellent discussions in year 5/6 regarding marketing / advertising etc.
I used this last year very successfully and it generated a great deal of valuable discussion.
Two texts based around Halloween AND comprehension questions suitable for years 3-5.
1. Where 'Jack O Lanterns' came from and questions
2. A story 'Croglin Grange' with questions related (year 4-5.)
