A simple resource to assess pupil knowledge and understanding of the aims and objectives of a lesson.

A two lesson activity (including homework): Pupils are to consider (from a list of 18) which individual was the greatest Victorian. They have to consider how their contributions and achievements impacted Victorian life and if their achievements still impact us today. The list of 18 Victorians covers politicians, activists, reformers, nurses, novelists, inventors, scientists, explorers etc. I may have included names you don't agree with, and may have omitted names you think should have been included (if so let me know in the comments). The end task is a creative (organisation and communication) task, whereby pupils have to design a commemorative plate for their chosen Victorian. They also have to write a brief biography, indicating the short-term and long-term impacts of their achievements. You'll need paper plates! Enjoy!

Paint a portrait of Elizabeth I. Examples of original paintings and their meanings found on the ppt. Success criteria for portrait and meaning/symbolism provided. Will you please the Queen? Or will it be a case of "off with your head"?

A simple end of term task. Pupils follow the stepped instructions (and specific instructions to boot) to design their own coat of arms. A fun activity which has gone down well with my pupils. Enjoy!

A stylish Takeaway Homework Menu for (almost) all subjects! QR code sheet will take you direct to specific worksheets to enable pupils to produce quality Starters, Mains and Deserts (help with their organisation and communication and IT skills) Starters include: Tweet Your Knowledge Word Search Mains include: What's In A Word? Factor Wheel Deserts include: What's in his/her Head? Fakebook (IT and handwritten version) Biography Poster Report and Cootie Catcher These have proven really successful and popular with my pupils. Colleagues have also used these ideas and value them as they provide pupils with different homework tasks. Adaptable word doc to change the name of the menu etc. I have inserted ?????? to highlight where subject specific words/topics are that need replacing to make the menu more relevant to your department. Remember, it's not just the menu you purchase here, but also access to printable online/downloadable resources (via QR codes). Enjoy!
