**Guided Reading Carousel **
This planning has been designed for a 5 group rotation.
Group 1 is a phonic group so planning is not provided for that due to schemes for schools.
The other 4 groups are completely planned for based from 3 books:
Grandpa comes to stay
Dilly the Dinosaur
The Julian Stories
Within the resource pack you will find:
PDF documents with guidance, and questions sheets for each book.
Daily Planning Slides to support use and the carousel.
Guided Reading Record Sheets
Group 1 is a phonic group. I use a phonic scheme for this with my school so I have therefore not been able to share those resources for you. I have left this group on the plan as a full class would require 5 groups. Hopefully you can use and edit as you wish.
Guided Reading Record Sheets
You should find questions sheets with the reading domains and linked questions next to it. These are saved as weekly PowerPoints.
This is for your reading folder documentation and assessment during the guided group reading with the teacher.
You can use this to mark off who was able to answer what question, and assess children’s fluency in the different domains.
There are 5 of these as on week 6 there will not be any Guided Reading sessions with the teacher as term comes to an end.
To understand the evolution of prehistoric art.
Place a range of pictures ,on a timeline at the front of the room, of art work created in the Paleo/ Meso/ Neo periods – write period names on the back
of the pictures.
(on the powerpoint with photos for room they are ordered for paleo - Neo time periods.
• Children to discuss how the art changed over this time and the types of
animals/ patterns used
Then they will create their own versions of early prehistoric art. Give children little square pieces of paper and charcoal to recreate cave paintings/ rock art. In books children can recreate art and then write a few sentences next to the pictures to articulate understanding.
Lesson 1 out of 6.
This unit looks at the earth’s movements and specifically volcanoes. This lesson dives into tectonic plates, their movements and continental drift theory to help children conceptualise that the plates beneath our feet are always moving.
There are lots of activities within the lesson to engage the children. You will require soil/sand for one activity as the children will dig for fossils like Wegener did to explain continental drift.
