In the summer I worked alongside a team of Shanghai teachers who taught me about how they teach maths in their country. We looked at children mastering a skill and not leaving the lower ability behind.
My school decided to take on this method of teaching and I worked with these teachers and other teachers to create 6 weeks of planning for my class that covers the year 4 curriculum.
I have also planned for year 3,5 and 6 too and that planning will follow.
Here is 7 weeks of detailed planning which covers the new curriculum.
Each day has a series of tasks/activities which gradually get harder and there is always a challenge for children who have mastered the success criteria.
I have included all detailed presentations/flipcharts which I shared with the children, every activity that I created and my weekly planning.
Any questions please ask.
I hope this makes sense and it saves you lots of time. I am happy to help with any questions that you may have :)
I do not work in year 5 anymore, but I have banked together all my planning. Obviously it will need to be adapted to suit your class, but hopefully it should save you lots of time :)
This resource is for my year 5 class. There are still some children who cannot tell the time. This week of planning starts off very basic with simple steps. Each day has a ppt and links to games, activities and worksheets for children who can tell the time and children that cannot. This would be ideal to use from higher ability year 2 and throughout ks2. The year 6 teacher is also going through this with his class.
Ideal for any children struggling to tell the time!
Any questions please ask.
This is my planning for Romans. It has been taught and adapted from year 3-6 as we did a half term on romans.
All the resources I used for the unit and presentations are included.
Any questions please ask.
This will be an excellent starting point for anyone teaching Romans.
This is all the resources and planning for persuasive writing aimed at a year 5/6 class. But this could be adapted for the whole of key stage 2 and used as a starting point.
I hope you find it useful.
Year 3 poetry planning, resources and activities.
This also includes the flip chart/presentation that I have used with the children!
Hopefully this will save you lots of time.
Any questions please ask :)
Story planning, resources, activities. Based around Romulus and Remulus. This will save you lots of time. There are lots of talk for writing resources in this too.
In addition this download contains all of the flipchart/presentations that I shared with the children.
Any questions please ask :)
All of my planning, resources and presentations for year 3 recounts. This will have to be adapted for your class, but I hope that it will save you lots of time :)
I have planned guided reading for the whole of key stage 2 and ofsted recently rated this as outstanding. I am really proud of it so have started to upload it. Any questions about how we deliver it- please do not hesitate to ask!
Please see my other planning.
This is 3 weeks worth of activities to go with the first of Anthony Horowitz Alex Rider stories. Stormbreaker is a story that my year 5/6 class love each year.
