Lesson 2 explores the red lady of Paviland. It aims to help children understand how the evidence of the Red Lady of Paviland builds a picture of what life was like during the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic periods.
The children activity is to recreate what they think the red lady of Paviland would have looked like from the evidence, there are two variations of the sheet, the one with the picture is designed for pre-key stage children. The other is for everyone, using adaptive teaching a the pedagogical approach, children can use the knowledge they have attained from the lesson to support them as well as the information sheets that can be given to each table as a reminder.
For more adaptive ideas, children could also have word mats or EAL sheets to support (These are not included in this resource but as suggestive ideas for you).
WALT understand the significance of the Neolithic Revolution.
The children will explore that this was a time of great change - in fact so
much changed that it is now called the Neolithic Revolution.
Using Skara Brea as an example look at how these early farmers
were living.
Create a fact file or diagram of the Skara Brea village that shows
the gathered information.
Finish the lesson by asking the children
• What stayed the same between the Paleo/ Meso and
Neolithic periods of time?
• What is different between the Paleo/ Meso and Neo periods
of time?
The pedegogy is adaptive teaching so the task is the same, questions are adapted per sheet. The first sheet is designed for your pre key stage children.
To understand Neolithic religion and the significance of
Stonehenge.
explore 3 key reasons that archaeologists think the
henge monument was built; Burial and a place of remembrance for the dead with ceremonies and feasts, a centre of healing, a place to observe the movementsof the sun and moon to mark points in the year as a solar
calendar.
Information about each theory around room or use the yr 3 research powerpoint for children to access on teams/ school server. Get the
children to record 3 pieces of evidence for the theory.
Finally bring everyone together and compare evidence collected.
Which theory do we think is most likely?
Children to write a recount of why they think this is the right
theory.
EAL, Pre keystage sheets are provided.

**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.
