Week 8 Fortunately, the Milk… Whole class reading/extract comprehension/guided reading resource with an adaptive teaching approach for independent tasks (3 levels of differentiation). 3 lessons which can be taught across one week depending on your timetable or over 3 weeks. The lesson duration is between 30-45 minutes. Each lesson covers a different reading focus: Lesson 1 - Vocabulary and prediction Lesson 2 - Retrieval and inference Lesson 3 - Sequence/summarise/explain Included is the text extract linked to the lesson; a main teaching presentation which is delivered whole class with opportunities to practice the skill needed for the independent task. This covers a blurb, information about the author, practice questions based specifically on the skill being taught and a differentiated/adapted independent task (3 levels). The independent task is sized to fit on a sticky labels (A4 page with 4 labels) which pupils stick into reading comprehension books to then answer the questions. The texts chosen are specific to the ability of Year 3 and Year 4 but due to the nature of whole class reading, are suitable for those working below ARE. There are 8 weeks (24 lessons) in this block to cover a half term which have been uploaded separately, week by week. If you have time (ha!), please leave us a review. We would love to hear your feedback.

Ideal for last-minute maths revision. 7 PDF files containing questions relating to key facts needed for new curriculum maths tests. My class have been filling in 1 or 2 daily just to keep their maths facts/knowledge fresh in their minds. Mats include: -conversions of units -properties of 2D and 3D shapes -doubles -fraction/decimal/ percentage equivalents -fractions of amounts -types of line -7 and 8 times tables

To match the new 2016 tests, this presentation has 7 weekly mental maths tests which covers knowledge from times tables to factors. In addition, there are 7 arithmetic paper sets of questions based on percentages. This was a key skill required for many questions on the 2016maths papers. The children are asked to calculate 10%, 20% then 5% as the weeks progress. The 7 weeks cover the first half of the Autumn term. More presentations will follow for the rest of the year, which will develop other aspects of mental maths and arithmetic skills needed for the new style maths tests.

A fun and engaging lesson for upper KS2 but easily adaptable for lower KS2. Fast paced for accelerated progress. Tried and tested in Y6 (upper mid-low ability). Pupils will use prior knowledge and extend learning of fractions of amounts and mixed number and improper fractions to work out ‘who done it’. Based on the popular game of Cluedo (most recently known as Clue) the task is to solve where, when and who committed the maths crime by calculating fractions of amounts, converting mixed number and improper fractions and identifying equivalent fractions. Perfect for Ofsted, an observation, an interview or in addition to your weekly teaching. *FIND LESSON PLAN IN FREE RESOURCES. *Find main teaching PowerPoint in our PREMIUM resources.
