These resources could be used at the beginning of a Stone Age (or Stone Age to Iron Age ) topic. Resources include:
A Stone Age poster which I would give to the children at the beginning of the lesson to see what they can infer about the Stone Age based on the images.
Simple posters for the Palaeolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic periods, which I intend on giving to the children once you’ve given them a bit of background information about the Stone Age, to see if they can INFER which order the three periods came in.
Stone Age to Iron Age timeline resource for children to accurately order the periods. I have purposely made them different sizes to show how vast the Palaeolithic period was compared to all others.
This resource includes PowerPoint going through the structure of the lesson. It includes retrieval practice, guided practice and differentiated tasks. This lesson could be used in year 2 or as a recap in year 3 which is how I use it.
Resources for the lesson are included too, including a retrieval practice pyramid which the kids love!
Two resources. The first is a description of different Ancient Egyptian people and their jobs with a hierarchy pyramid for children to write the job titles where they think it would go (pharoah of course being at the top).
The second resource is a template for Top Trumps where children can draw and describe particular Ancient Egyptian people/jobs and rate them according to their power/responsibility etc.
Venn diagram with images for children to cut out and stick in the correct sections of the venn diagram. The images are all related to Stone Age and Bronze Age and of course, some are related to both. Quick activity that doesn’t take up too much of your lesson but clearly shows their understanding.
Made from scratch resource, aimed to look like BBC iPlayer website. This has been used previously to describe different human/physical features in a particular region but can be adapted for any region. Children responded well to it and it was an engaging resource.
A vocAPPulary template designed to look like a tablet/iPad to be used in a variety of lessons to draw/write definitions. I have used this in many different lessons and it’s worked well and looks lovely in books as an interactive flap!
A fantastic resource where children use their knowledge of numbers to 20 in French to crack the code. A spin off Guess Who activity where they have to work out clues to find out which character is the culprit! Combines knowledge of numbers, pencil case items and ages! The children I have done this with love it!
A variety of resources for a French colours unit of work, including:
pencil case activity, children read the simple sentences in French and colour the items the correct colour (this relies on them knowing pencil case items in French)
Flags activity - children to read the sentences and tick which flag it is referring to
Colour by numbers - children to read the numbers and colours in French and colour accordingly
A variety of French animal topic resources including:
worksheet involving reading animal names and simple sentences
animal match up cards (linked to Carnival of Animals music)
Animal zoo template for children to draw animals and write below
Animal cages used as flaps with space for children to write simple sentences on and draw animals underneath
Introductory lesson aimed at year 3, introducing children to 3 digit numbers. This lesson follows the White Rose scheme and includes retrieval practice, assessment and differentiated activities.
Tasks get progressively more challenging, so children can either work their way through the activities at their own pace or you can start the children off where you see fit depending on how they did in the check in activity at the start.
Complete lesson on identifying numbers on a number line to 100. This can be used in year 2 and as a recap in year 3. This lesson follows the White Rose scheme and includes retrieval practice, assessment and differentiated activities.
The coloured squares on the PowerPoint are used as an assessment/teaching tool. Children could have coloured quiz cards that they hold up to show the correct answer. Allows for whole class contribution.
Tasks get progressively more challenging, so children can either work their way through the activities at their own pace or you can start the children off where you see fit depending on how they did in the check in activity at the start.
KWL grid to be used at the beginning and end of French topics to show what the children already know, what they would like to find out and what they have learnt.
McDonalds theme synonym display. Lettering included. ‘I’m improvin’ it’ (the M in ‘improvin’ is the M for McDonalds. Synonym chips included also that can be put inside McDonalds fries packaging for children to pick out when they want a better word for their writing. Picture of example display included for reference.
