I’ve put together my planning from a school I taught in. You get a massive 890 files and over 400mb of planning. Spread over a number of years, you may wish to form for your own use your own lessons by combining elements of various lessons. The zip contains the lot. I’ve included a few in the general upload so you can peruse.

I have designed 100 worksheets of 12 pages each (50000 questions in total) on fractions. They are suitable for years 5 and 6 i.e. 10 and 11 year olds. They could be used in the first few years of secondary school too, or for adults who need help with Maths. There is a wide range of difficulty. You can dip into the worksheets and pick the ones you like. The further you go into a worksheet the more difficult it is as I have used bigger denominators, mixed and whole numbers, a wider range of numbers etc. There are questions on: Comparing fractions Division with Whole Numbers fractions addition fractions and Decimals fractions multiplication fractions subtraction Mixed operations with fractions Multiplication with whole numbers Simplifying fractions You can use your professional judgement to choose the appropriate sheet. You can pick and mix, leave questions out etc. it’s your choice!

1000 questions Answers provided. Pupils have to read the instructions, work out the sum, then write it in. Great for pupils who can multiply but get confused by the word element.

Gathered together my lessons for year 5 Maths and English for a particular year. There’s about a year’s worth in there. Plenty of great ideas. the zip has the lot. the general download a few to have a look at. Sample planning : Start by showing the word ‘Instructions’ – TTYP what does this mean? Come back together and establish that instructions are a set of commands given to help someone do or create something. Show the children a recipe and the instructions as to how to play Sevens using cards. Look at the instructions. What do children notice about how these are laid out? They are given in an order. They are bullet-pointed. Each sentence is fairly short. There are many ‘bossy’ verbs: ‘place’, ‘play’, ‘turn’ etc. Explain that we call these ‘imperative’ verbs – an imperative is a command. Discuss why it is helpful to have ‘bossy’ verbs and short clear sentences. There is a title which tells you what is to be achieved. Numbers or time connectives used e.g. 1, 2, 3 or later, next - are used to show chronological order. Create a features list on the working wall by sticking post it notes onto a piece of sugar paper –these can be used throughout the unit as a game to start the lesson. Divide the class into three teams. Deal out seven cards to each team and the teacher! Play a little of the game of sevens, following the instructions. Demonstrate how we can follow the instructions to play. Return to features of instructions displayed on working wall. What can you remember about these? Children turn to a partner and tell them 3 different features. Report back & discuss. Show children the instructions checklist (working wall). Have we mentioned all of these features? Ask children to think of a new idea for a card game. Use a talking partner & brainstorm a game idea on whiteboards. Gather everyone’s ideas/discuss the concepts. Pick one idea. Decide how many players we will need & how to play it. Allow children time with talking partners to practice playing the game. Ask some children to demonstrate. How will we write the instructions? What comes first? (Title, subheading.) What is our first instruction? Repeat for a few more sentences.

Week’s planning. sample : L.O. To apply understanding of multiplication facts. Knowledge Harvest: What do chn know about multiplication and place value? I.e. when multiplying using the formal method, numbers need to be set out accurately, what methods do the children know? i.e. partitioning and formal written method. Have 5x2x6 on the board. What is the answer? How do I work this out? Once chn have got the answer, discuss whether it matters if the numbers are in any order. Resources: Dice: 1 between 2 Vocab: Multiplication, number facts, digit, numbers, single digit, LO: To revise calculation of multiples of 10. Have some numbers on the board. Can chn partition them? Discuss that in 4567, the “4” has a value of “4000”. Link this to the Place Value grid (ThHTU). Remind chn that the units column is now called the “ones” column. Have a 356 x 10 on the board. How can we work this out? Discuss different methods that the chn may come up with. Do chn (LA) realise that you can move the digits, or will they try to use the formal method? Clear up any misconceptions that we just add a zero or move the decimal point. Adult to remind chn of the clue. Look at the amount of zeroes to see how many places the numbers need to be moved.

A series of short but interesting Maths investigations. Nice worksheets for year 5 pupils. Bits on tally charts and graphs. Nice powerpoint on reading scales.

Nice compilation to get you through the tricky Summer term. Compilation from several schools I taught at. Plenty of material. sample: TTYP what is an autobiography? Come back together and discuss. Repeat for biography. Which would be written in first person and which would be written in third? Who is the audience and what is the purpose of both text types? Activity One Show ‘fact’ and ‘opinion’ on the board. What do these mean? Talk about how autobiographies can contain both because the subject is writing their own life story. Activity One Give groups a copy of the John Lennon biography section and the section of ‘Boy’ by Roald Dahl (both from essential non-fiction anthology). Each group to divide a large piece of paper in half and create a features list for both text types. Read the 2008 Long writing task and discuss how we would tackle this. Your task is to write a biography of Pip’s life, Including information about his inventions. Success Criteria: I have revised the features of biography and autobiography. I have started to think about how I might tackle tomorrow’s writing task.
