In this lesson we read a short passage from Michael Morpurgo’s Born to Run. Then we answer a full range of questions – concentrating on giving answers that require you making a point, finding evidence to back it up and explaining your thinking. Fully resourced lesson - PowerPoint leads the children through the text - highlighting key passages in the text, providing a framework for answers and giving model answers.

KS2 Art: Create Your Own Howl's Moving Castle

(0)
KS2 ART LESSON – Inspired by the classic animation Howl’s Moving Castle! Children love the film, and will love this lesson. The PowerPoint is a step-by-step guide to designing and drawing your own incredible moving machines. Over 50 slides, with hand drawn illustrations introduce the children to new drawing techniques - allowing them to build up a design of their own in small steps. It is perfect for teachers who lack confidence in teaching art as all the techniques and stages are demonstrated clearly for you. All the teacher need do is dictate the pace of the lesson. The simple and clear guides allow the children to producing stunning illustrations - each one unique. This lesson is a real favourite with the children - I adapted it so I could teach it online during lockdown and it worked a treat. Download the lesson and try something new - I’ve taught variations on this lesson for years and each group of children are inspired by it - the drawing becomes addictive!

Guided Reading: George's Marvelous Medicine

(0)
A guided reading resource for KS2. Based on the Roald Dahl classic, George’s Marvellous Medicine. Works best with Lower KS2 children. A large section of text has been used, and there is enough here for a number of days. All question types are included with model answers provided for all questions. Use as a PowerPoint, with highlighted sections of text and model answers - this works well if you are using the resource with a whole class. There are printable sheets also available which are better suited to small group work.

KS2 Arithmetic Expectations & Assessment Tool

(0)
This resource is designed to be used during the Summer Term. It consists of a full set of checklists that detail the basic expectations in arithmetic for Years 3, 4, 5 & 6. This provides staff with a clear focus of what needs to be achieved by the end of the Summer Term in arithmetic. There are a full suite of matching Assessment Task Packs for each Year Group - each with their own Mark Schemes. Teachers can administer the assessment tasks and then fill in the checklists for each child. They are perfect for end of year assessments. We use these to pass on information to next teacher by sticking them into maths books in September. Teachers then know exactly what each child is secure in and what their next steps should be.
