Hello all!
Here’s a 3-way differentiated resource for getting children into groups of understanding using column subtraction. I use this with my year 3 and 4 children, and they love getting into role to complete it.
The task involves children interviewing for three different jobs in Ancient Egyptian society: High priest, Scholar or Pharaoh. The job they get depends on their answers to the questions- you can discuss that, whilst there was a heirarchy, without people in every role, society wouldn’t exist.
This is a set of resources that I use for my year 3 and 4 group.
They are Egyptian themed so that they can link in with humanities topic.
Shape poems are a great introduction to writing in a poetic structure for children, and the shapes offered in this pack are: canopic jars, a sarcophagus and a pyramid.
I modelled the pyramid shape to the class so that my lower ability group had more input tailored to them.
LO: To write a topical shape poem
