Nelson Mandela / Black History / Art Portraits

(4)
A massive bank of resources based around Nelson Mandela and Black History. Features an incredibly effective lesson leading onto an assembly to show how soul destroying racism really can be with links to Nelson Mandela. Is VERY powerful if done properly. Right to education, poverty, quotes and web-links also included. I have also included lots of additional resources on Nelson Mandela and a Teachers TV video and the video file and notebook file I used to try and illustrate drawing portraits. Powerpoints, worksheets, videos, plans etc. enjoy!

I have bullet pointed a few ideas I had to use iMovie in the classroom. Although these were written with a mac in use, many of the ideas could be used with iMovie on the iPad or a similar video editing program. Please leave a comment if you find this useful.

(0)
UPDATED OCT 2017 - WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE ASSEMBLY ADDITION! A collection of unique resources about bonfire night. Includes... -Uniquely designed 'Gunpowder Plot Story.' -Uniquely designed by myself 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire' that can be used for many other topics easily, all sounds effects etc included! -Uniquely designed article about how last year letters were discovered worth 60,000 -Powerpoint including fire safety points and fire safety advert. Also with a brief History of Bonfire night, all designed in the same sheet as the worksheets. Great as an assembly or for use in class. - Guy Fawkes poem -Task to alphabetically order key words -Highly detailed 'fact file' (4 page document) in which children are required to make their own simplified 'profiles' on the main conspirators of the Gunpowder Plot. In its current form a great activity for year 5/6 although very easily adapted for years 3/4. (Worksheet included.) -Simple Storyboard for younger / SEN children and a more complex one with space for more writing for older children. -The history of fireworks Powerpoint presentation -To try and help I have downloaded TWO videos from youtube, please note I do not claim to own these clips, just thought they may be useful if you were doing the topic. Another excellent video to watch with older pupils is the Nick Knowles 'Gunpowder Plot.'

Keynotes - Apple Mac - iPad - Collection of Keynotes written exclusively for KS2 - PART 1

PART ONE of TWO As this is the first time I have shared content in this format (Mac) this is what I use. Please note this is 15 YEARS worth of Keynotes made on the mac originally for years 3 and 4 although many have been used in older classes and are easily adaptable. INVALUABLE for anyone with a Mac that uses it for teaching as these are VERY hard to find. (Why I had to make them as I much prefer Keynote.) These took many many hours to make individually. Many incorporate videos and animations within them and some have been used to achieve outstanding observations. Thats why the file size is so big, For a MacBook user these are fantastic and many should work on iPad too with Keynote. (Although one or two of the animations may be different and I can't 100% promise all will be formatted perfectly from experience.) Keynotes year 3/4 - A Massive collection of all the presentations I have made ORIGINAL in Mac format. Most are self explanatory but have written a few notes of description for some them below to help. Will save Apple users absolutely tonnes of time as I myself use many of these when I go into schools. You really are getting a lot here believe me. (Some written on Keynote '09 so you may want to open on this to avoid conversion.) - Poetry Creating Images Keynote - Used for an outstanding observation 2 years ago, children went on to write their own beach poems based on the content shown. - Haunted house keynote - Fantastic for boys writing to get them enthralled. - Mummification Keynote - Includes video of the mummification process. - Parental Year 4, shows 'how we do things' in Maths. Includes an EXCELLENT countdown starter that can be used with the children also, (really really effective) but illustrates examples of how we teach in Mathematics at that age. Used in a Maths showcase evening at school. Please note these will NOT work on windows computers (PowerPoint) without conversion although an excellent site to convert these files is https://cloudconvert.com/key-to-ppt I have included this particular resource mainly for Apple users. Please VOTE on this resource if you find it useful

Elementary School Anti-Bullying Resources and Videos

(0)
A collection of resources that will be helpful for teaching children the anti-bullying message in higher elementary school classes. I have also included a list of ideas for anti-bullying week which may be of help to your school / class. I have also included a short assembly with the excellent short animation Narrated by Kate Winslet and lots of additional resources. (If this embed in the Powerpoint doesn't work I have included the video file as a link in the notes section and as a file here.) I have included the Mac 'Keynote' version of this resource for those of you that own apple computers. (I originally made it here.) I have also written an example 'anti-bullying letter' example written in shared writing with the children and a 'Dealing with dilemmas' PowerPoint (i.e. what to do in certain situations.) I have always found the website 'Go-Givers' to be excellent. NB I do not claim to own the video sections of this resource.
