Colour Synonym Flip-pack for desks/tables

Colour Synonym Flip-pack for desks/tables

(0)
These handy flip-packs enable children from Years 2-8 to improve their vocabulary choice within writing lessons. To create the final resource all you need to do is cut out each 'colour', laminate them and then hole punch through the hole on each laminated colour. A treasury tag can then be used to keep them all together. I have one of these on each desk my children sit at and they find them very useful. It also gets the point across that there are many ways of saying the same thing, but some ways are more impactful than others!

Name, calculate and measure angles inside right angles (differentiated) with answers
GalvaniseEDUGalvaniseEDU

Name, calculate and measure angles inside right angles (differentiated) with answers

(0)
This is a differentiated worksheet to help children master opposite angles. Answers are included. Children are challenged to: - name the type of angle a ‘missing angle’ is. - calculate its size in degrees - measure it accurately using a protractor. All angles are correctly sized. There are two sheets, an Expected Standard sheet and a more challenging Greater Depth sheet (2016+ Curriculum). On each sheet there are nine missing angles, meaning that children have 27 things to do in order to complete one activity sheet. Please rate and/or comment. All feedback is valuable.

Analyse Bar Charts/graphs 2 (differentiated with answers) - Two layouts

(0)
A two-way differentiated activity sheet/worksheet that will develop the children’s understanding of bar graphs, data handling, averages, negative numbers and data handling vocabulary. Sheet 1 - 8 Questions asking about the average temperature in three cities across four months. Sheet 2 - Questions asking about the average temperature in three cities across five months. Averages, decimals and extrapolation skills will be tested. Answers are provided for both sheets. I have provided two different layouts which also add to the challenge. One has a wider line graph set, the other has a narrower set. This will test children’s adaptability to varying presentations.

This resource pack includes a everything you need for the children to have a go at writing a high-level Newspaper. Included is: - An example modeled newspaper article, complete with headline, text, pictures, advertisement and Year Six standard Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling (in pdf and .doc format) - A blank template. I've set this so that the text automatically flows into the other text boxes as children write more. This will save a lot of teacher time in lessons. Helpful to allow a bit more independence! Please give feedback or rate this resource. I also take requests.
Writing and comparing Information Texts (including 2xA3 VCOP'd poster version)

Writing and comparing Information Texts (including 2xA3 VCOP'd poster version)

(0)
Two information texts about the same subject (volcanoes). One is significantly better written than the other. A good activity to get children to compare and contrast written text, particularly good for getting children to spot grammar features and high-level punctuation. The details are not glaringly obvious but word choice is markedly improved in the better version, as well as more detail having been added. A VCOP'd poster version has been included to display the features in your class. Also excellent for getting children to summarize a text.
KS1 2017 SATs Maths Gap Analysis Grid (including tests and conversion tables) - SATs Prep

KS1 2017 SATs Maths Gap Analysis Grid (including tests and conversion tables) - SATs Prep

(0)
These are excel spreadsheets Gap Analysis documents for the 2017 Year Two SATs Papers for Maths . The sheet totals up the scores automatically and each child’s final score changes colour to reflect their ability. If their total score for a subject goes green, it means they would have passed the 2017 SATs with that score. If it goes Green with a yellow font, it means that child would have achieved a ‘More Able’ score for that tested subject. I have also included an instructions and document page, linking to a freely available copy of each test, mark scheme and instructions. Additionally, I have included a link to the conversion tables from RAW Score to Scaled Score. All a teacher has to do is enter their children’s names and enter the 0’s, 1’s, 2’s or 3’s for each question, which also change colour too for a visual reference. I recommend that a teacher should enter ‘N’ if a child did not attempt that question. This gives an idea of who is not even attempting certain questions, not just whether they got the question wrong. The sheets are set up for 32 pupils but more can be added/deleted and instructions are on the first page/sheet. Some cells are locked/protected in this document but the parts that you need to insert yourself are editable. This is so that the formulas/algorithms do not break and render the spreadsheet’s functionalities as broken. I take requests for Gap Analysis Grids. Please leave feedback if you like this resource as I am planning to produce more for each SATs paper going forward, as well as CGP Practice Papers. Please remember to rate this resource as I made this to save teachers time. Thank-you.
