A resource created to teach year 1 children about what a plant needs to survive. We began thinking about whether a plant needed water to grow and moved on to creating an experiment to prove it.

A pack created for the first lesson in teaching measure to year one. The powerpoint is based around the theme of the Wizard of Oz and the children are set an initial problem to solve by Dorothy. The powerpoint then asks the children to think about how they could solve this problem and what we could use to measure lengths and heights. This lesson the children were only using non standard units of measure and the HA children moved on to using rulers the following day. The pack comes with an activity for children who will be working independently as well as a teacher led activity. Both activities are practical and hands on which get the children practising measuring length.

A presentation and activity for working out the new time. Comes with a starter recap and a problem for the children to solve altogether. Main teaching includes differentiated activities for children to complete. LA activity working out what time it will be once an hour is added to o'clock, MA working out the time once an hour is added to o'clock and half past and HA activity adding increments of 5 minutes to find the new time. Children are to work out the new times and draw the hands on the clock to show these times.

A SP&G lesson on coordinating conjunctions. This was used when teaching my year 1 children what a coordinating conjunction was for the first time. Begins with a revisit of what we know about main clauses and simple sentences and then moves on to looking at coordinating conjunctions. There is an activity at the end of the powerpoint where the children are to choose the best coordinating conjunction to complete the compound sentence.

A lesson which has been differentiated three ways to teach year 1 children about symmetry. The pack includes a powerpoint, a plan, three different differentiated activities and next steps for the year 1 children to complete.

A resource created to teach year 1 children about handling data and creating tally charts. Children were told that we are going on a trip to the jungle and that in their packs there were some animals that needed to be released back into the wild. The first activity was to sort the animals (this was the whole session for my LA children), they then used the animal pictures to complete the tally chart (a discussion happened here to recap what a tally chart is and what to do when we count five of something). Afterwards the children were to answer the questions about their tally chart. As a next step or reasoning question the children were asked to write their own question to ask someone about the tally chart, there was a frame to support children in this.

A range of different resources created to get year 3 children to write persuasively. Resources include starters, main group activities and a powerpoint. Gets children thinking about what a good advert looks like and what techniques we can use in persuasive writing. The overall aim of the unit of work was to be able to sell products to ‘dragons den’. The children were asked to design their own tea and to persuade the rest of the class to buy it. This can be linked to DT as the children then can design and make their product.

A table or wall prompt to remind children about the uses of connecting adverbs. Comes with examples for each type and the connecting adverbs used within a sentence. I laminated this resource and had it on the table for the children to use when writing.

A resource used in my year 1 phonics lesson when teaching the children about the different pronunciations for the /ch/ grapheme. Children were to use the pictures to work out what each word said, afterwards we identified the different pronunciations that they found.

A resource created to teach year 1 to use dictionaries. Children recapped alphabetical order and then carried out the starter activity sorting words into alphabetical order. The treasure hunt words were places around the room for the children to find meanings of and write them in their books. Also comes with a powerpoint presentation.

This pack contains a lesson plan, differentiated activities and a powerpoint presentation.

A set of 7 of the Thinker's Keys for year 1 and 2 linked to the book 'Lost and Found' which we used as a topic. The thinker's keys are used to promote a higher level of thinking. The children in my class worked in pairs to complete the different keys and absolutely loved doing it!

A resource that was created for use in year 1 and 2 lesson in Science. The lesson was used for a learning together Science session when investigating materials but can also be used within the classroom with just the children. The children were to think about materials that sink and float, and those which are waterproof and what each of those words mean. The children were then asked to design and label a boat for the boy and the penguin to travel to the South Pole using the 'junk' materials that they had brought in. They were then asked to make their design, test it and then evaluate at the end. This pack contains the powerpoint used to explain what to do for the children and also looked at the meaning of the different words we were talking about. It also contains the experiment sheet.

A class jobs poster to cut out, laminate and stick on the door or wall of your classroom. I stapled each of the jobs to ribbon and hung them up. I wrote each child's name on a peg and moved the pegs each week so that the children could see what their new job was.

A group of resources used when teaching year 1 about different types of animals and their features during our animals and humans science topic. Includes a lesson plan explaining how I used the different resources, a PowerPoint presentation, facts and pictures for the children to investigate and an activity to go in their books. I aimed for the children to investigate and become experts themselves. I had a recording of Peter Pan asking the children for help to discover what type of animal the Neverbeast was as my hook for the lesson. Peter Pan wanted to set a trap for the Neverbeast but wasn't sure where to put it. I also had animal noises playing in the background throughout.

A lesson on letter writing which based upon our Peter Pan topic. This pack contains a powerpoint presentation and activities. I first read the letter from Tinkerbell to Peter to the children to see what they noticed about the way that the letter was set out, we then looked at a range of other letters and the children used sugar paper to mind map their thoughts. The powerpoint then highlights the different features of a letter and where they can be found. Afterwards the children were given another letter from Wendy to her parents and the children were to identify the features we had been looking at. I have included labels for the LA children to place in the correct place on the letter.

A resource used when learning how to write invitations in my year 1 class. All resources are linked to our Peter Pan theme. For the first lesson we looked at what needs to be included in an invitation and the children investigated existing party invitations and then wrote notes on what they were going to include in their own. The following day the children used the reminder sheet to help them to turn their notes into a proper invitation. This pack contains a lesson plan and powerpoints for the two days as well as writing frames and help sheets.

A lesson looking at main clauses with year 1. Children were to look at the words on the board, do they make a main clause? What does a main clause need? For the activity two adult led groups are to make main clauses using the word cards and write them in their books. Challenge- can you add an adjective or two to make your writing more interesting?
