This writing frame is used to help pupils practice with their extended writing questions in Science. It uses smaller steps and leading questions for pupils to be able to answer the large question that they would see in the exam. The frame include keywords that the pupils should use in their answer and a picture in the center, either from the question itself or as a visual prompt. This is really useful for all pupils and ticks that literacy box!

This is for a KS3 class, with a Star Wars theme. Pupils begin by coming up with definitions for positive and negative acceleration. They then watch a video (link in the notes section) and write down 3 things that they have learned from it. Pupils watch a speed safety video (link in notes section) and use physics to prove it correct. Pupils then are given a question each and an answer sheet. They go around the room and ask each other the question they have, write in the correct box the answer, swap questions and continue until they have done 30 questions (cocktail party) Finally pupils complete an equation triangle using the template as an exit ticket.

This is a lesson for a low ability KS3 class. It has the theme of Star Wars. Pupils start with match some words with their definitions. There is then a circus activity where pupils go around a do small tasks to answer questions about different types of forces. Pupils then create a learning sheet for Luke Skywalker, so he can learn about 'The Force'. Finally pupils do a small literacy task as their exit ticket.

Here is a collection of mind maps for the applied geology module prompting. -Water -Oil and Gas -Metallic Minerals -Construction Materials -Coal

This is aimed at a low ability KS3 class, with a Zombie theme Get a lot of glitter on your hands. As pupils walk in greet them with a hand shake or pat on the shoulder. Pupils begin with a word search of some key terms. Pupils then do a "Think, Pair, Share" on how they could catch Zombie-ism. Then get pupils to check their hands a shoulders, discuss what this represents. Go through the possible routes of transmission. Use mini white board to do some Q&A to check understanding. Put the different hospitals around the room. Pupils decide on how each patient became infected with Zombie-ism. There is then a Maths focus, where pupils draw tally charts, calculate percentages and draw graphs. Finally, pupils do an exit ticket which involves them describe ways disease can spread over different distances.

This is for a low ability KS3 class, with a Ghostbusters theme. Pupils begin by putting in order the stages of hearing (they would have done this in a previous lesson). Pupils then determine their own hearing range using a video. Pupils then watch a video on narwhals and how they use echolocation, answering some questions along the way. Pupils then get introduced to ultrasound and some uses. They are then given differentiated maths questions to go along side this. Finally pupils compare the hearing ranges of different animals.

This is aimed at a KS3 class, with a Peter Pan theme. Pupils begin by describing the glow around Tinkerbell. You then go on to explain luminous objects and if you can describe Tinkerbell this way. There is also a question to cover the moon misconception. You then explain how to draw ray diagrams and pupils practice by showing how Peter can see different things in Neverland (the sheet gets harder as it goes down). Pupils then Think, pair and Share on how thy think shadows are formed - using keywords. They then watch a video and write down an explanation in their books. There is a homework about bioluminescence. Finally pupils create a summary poster for the introduction for Light.

This is aimed at a low ability KS3 class, with a Scooby Doo theme. Pupils begin by sorting some of the thing Scooby and Shaggy eat into healthy and unhealthy foods. They then watch a video on balanced diets. They then match the food group with what it provides the body with. This is an interactive slide, so can be printed as a worksheet or done on the board together. Pupils then sort foods into the food group they think it belongs in. Lastly pupils are given a worksheet and told that Scooby and Shaggy are going to order the meal on the sheet. They are to answer the questions about the meal.

This is aimed at a lower ability KS3 class, with a Scooby Do theme. Pupils begin by recalling the 7 food groups. They then watch Mambo No5 Food Tests song and complete a table to show what the test is for each food group. Pupils then investigate different foods using the tests. Finally there is a food tests multiple choice quiz.

Pupils begin by using the magazine article (page 5) and highlighting all the words they think are parts of the digestive system. Pupils then RAG the lesson objective on the worksheet Pupils are then shown the Gums to Bums demonstration. Each step being spoke about to a suitable level. Pupils then use the Why Do We Digest worksheet to show what they have learnt. This is then peer marked and for each task (which links to an objective) pupils RAG again depending on how many they got correct. The homework is based on the final RAG. The pupils choses what section to do based on how well they have done in the lesson

Firstly, I would like to say thank you for purchasing or considering purchasing a QWC writing frame or bundle. I have found these an amazing resource, which if why I have made so many. But, how could they be differentiated? I know how tempting it can be to use these as a standalone task, and even stretch it out into a lesson. This document gives some ideas on how to differentiated for different classes as well as other activities you could do with the frames.

This lesson introduces coral reefs and how humans are affecting them by using a comprehension starter. It then has a collective memory tasks where pupils learn about the environment in which coral reefs are found. It contains a link for a podcast with a few questions to ensure that pupils have listened and taken away the key points. The lesson then progresses into food chains, webs and energy transfer on coral reefs using Finding Nemo as an example. It contains a feed web game, which requires some printing, but little preparation. They then look at a Finding Nemo food web and discuss what would happen if characters were removed as well as energy transfer. For the homework pupils must use the simulation on explorelearning.com (the simulation is called the same as the worksheet title)

A lesson about extremophiles. It starts with a video of hydrothermal vents with some music to play as they enter. There is then a challenge question as a starter. Pupils then listen to a podcast and watch a small video about how deep the ocean is and what hydrothermal vents are. There are questions with both to ensure that pupils take from the media what is needed. Pupils then go over the different types of extremophiles and decide which one's would be around hydrothermal vents. Pupils then have to write a script for James Cameron's documentary for a narrator. I used the beginning video as the scene they were to write a script for. They have to decide hydrothermal vents and extremophiles to the audience. With quick workers you can then ask them to present it over the video. This is a nice end.
