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 weeks worth of powerpoint resources for phase 5 phonics. The powerpoint covers the alternative pronunciations: a, y, ch and ou and the tricky words many, laughed, because, different, any, eyes, friends, once and please. The powerpoint follows the introduce, revisit, teach, practise and apply lesson structure and there are opportunities for children to read and write different words as well as sorting different sounds and revisiting the phase 5 sounds we have already learnt.

A lesson created to teach year 1 pupils about the past and present tense and how to add -ing and -ed to change the verb from past to present tense within writing. The presentation starts the children thinking about the difference between a sentence in the past and one in the present. It then looks at how to add -ed and -ing to the root word to change its meaning. For their independent tasks the children are to write two sentences about the picture; one present and one past tense, using what they have learnt about suffixes. The powerpoint is linked to our theme which is Antarctica and penguins.

A whole lesson on teaching money to year 1. The starter gets the children to match the coins to their value which is one of the NC objectives. There are then a few examples of coins in a purse on the board. This gets the children thinking about how to add different coins and how to write this as a number sentence. After the whole class input the children have their own purses in their books. This activity is differentiated with LA children working with 1p’s and 2p’s. MA are using coins up to 10p and HA children are working with coins up to 50p. The pack also comes with next steps stickers to be used when marking or when moving the children on in the lesson.

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 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?
