Roman Timeline Activity

(0)
A set of 13 timeline cards which children can order as part of an activity. Each card includes an iconic part of Roman history, alongside its date and an image. Worked brilliantly with my class when teaching Roman chronology. I then followed this activity by getting each child to make their own zig-zag timeline to illustrate what they’ve learnt.
ADHD Screener
zoecole1993zoecole1993

ADHD Screener

(0)
A simple ADHD screener for primary and secondary school pupils. Please note, this screener does not provide a confirmed diagnosis of ADHD but is designed to help professionals/families to identify whether an individual may be presenting with some of the behaviours typical of an individual with ADHD. The results of this screener then may help to evidence a referral for a neurodevelopmental assessment if it is felt this would be necessary. Please note, the questions below are taken from a combination of the following documents: DSM-5 Diagnostic Criteria for ADHD, Sheffield NHS Children’s ADHD Assessment, Conners-UK ADHD Screener. This was created by an inclusion coordinator of a multi-academy trust and an experienced SENDCO.
Fractions with Skittles

Fractions with Skittles

(0)
I created this to use with my class during a lesson on fractions. I wanted them to identify fractions and order fractions in ascending order but wanted to create a way for them to do this which had meaning and was exciting. Therefore, I provided each pair of children with a bag of skittles which they then used to complete the worksheet. The children found this extremely engaging! This lesson meets the following statutory requirements from the National Curriculum: Year 3 Pupils should be taught to: count up and down in tenths; recognise that tenths arise from dividing an object into 10 equal parts and in dividing one-digit numbers or quantities by 10 recognise, find and write fractions of a discrete set of objects: unit fractions and non-unit fractions with small denominators recognise and use fractions as numbers: unit fractions and non-unit fractions with small denominators recognise and show, using diagrams, equivalent fractions with small denominators add and subtract fractions with the same denominator within one whole [for example, 5/7 + 1/7 = 6/7 ] compare and order unit fractions, and fractions with the same denominators solve problems that involve all of the above Year 4 Pupils should be taught to: recognise and show, using diagrams, families of common equivalent fractions count up and down in hundredths; recognise that hundredths arise when dividing an object by 100 and dividing tenths by 10 solve problems involving increasingly harder fractions to calculate quantities, and fractions to divide quantities, including non-unit fractions where the answer is a whole number add and subtract fractions with the same denominator recognise and write decimal equivalents of any number of tenths or hundreds recognise and write decimal equivalents to 1/4 , 1/2 , 3/4 find the effect of dividing a one- or two-digit number by 10 and 100, identifying the value of the digits in the answer as ones, tenths and hundredths round decimals with 1 decimal place to the nearest whole number compare numbers with the same number of decimal places up to 2 decimal places solve simple measure and money problems involving fractions and decimals to 2 decimal places

(0)
Staff meeting used to introduce Zones of Regulation created by a SENDCO and Inclusion Coordinator of a Multi-Academy Trust. I have used this PowerPoint multiple times to introduce the Zones of Regulation to head teachers, class teachers and teaching assistants. I’ve received great feedback for this and all teachers have been inspired to create their own classroom displays. Staff meeting Powerpoint includes: Story/history/research behind the Zones of Regulation Explanation of the Zones of Regulation Definition of self-regulation Poster including/explaining the four Zones Blue Zone introduction: Typical emotions felt in this Zone and possible body signals Green Zone introduction: Typical emotions felt in this Zone and possible body signals Yellow Zone introduction: Typical emotions felt in this Zone and possible body signals Red Zone introduction: Typical emotions felt in this Zone and possible body signals Slide explaining how each slide links to the road signs (a good visual) Many activities which can be used to help children identify an emotion they’re feeling and what Zone they’re in (Includes sorting, bingo, video links where Disney films etc demonstrate the Zones, linking experiences to Zones) Examples of classroom resources to introduce/use the Zones Many activities where children will be able to learn strategies to move from one Zone to another to help support regulation (toolbox, tools worksheet, sensory activities) Blue Zone toolbox slides: What we need to do once we’re in this Zone and 2 differentiated toolboxes sharing tools for this coloured Zone Green Zone toolbox slides: What we need to do once we’re in this Zone and 2 differentiated toolboxes sharing tools for this coloured Zone Yellow Zone toolbox slides: What we need to do once we’re in this Zone and 2 differentiated toolboxes sharing tools for this coloured Zone Red Zone toolbox slides: What we need to do once we’re in this Zone and 2 differentiated toolboxes sharing tools for this coloured Zone Examples of classroom displays sharing the Zones of Regulation Conclusion slide offering an opportunity for questions

Four in a Row Addition Game

Four in a Row Addition Game

(0)
A fun activity where children can consolidate their learning and understanding on addition. I have created three differentiated game sheets. Taking it in turns, choose a calculation to complete. Work it out on a whiteboard and if you get the correct answer, you can place a counter over the calculation. The first person to get 4 counters in row horizontally, vertically or diagonally wins. Every child I’ve played this game with have really enjoyed it!

Annual Reading Tracker/Log

(0)
An annual reading tracker to be completed by anyone to track the books read over the year. Simply colour in a book from the stack from the current month and colour it in and label it to look like the spine of the book you’ve just read. A great way to remember the books you’ve enjoyed over time and a great reward strategy for less enthusiastic readers! Enjoy :)
Spelling Loyalty Card

Spelling Loyalty Card

(0)
Each child receives a loyalty card with their name on and their own personalised target for their weekly spelling tests e.g. ‘to get at least 10 spellings correct,’ ‘to get full marks.’ (There is an allocated section on the card where each child’s target can be written.)Each time the child then meets their target they can add a sticker to their honeycomb collection on the reverse side of the card. Once they’ve received 6 stickers they receive a prize. (I have a box of small prizes including pencils, rubbers, stickers etc). Whilst the resource motivates children to succeed on their spelling test it also recognises the range of needs in each class and the need for differentiation regarding the words set and their targets. A great reward! My class are extremely driven by it.

Should I add or subtract?

It’s really important to discuss the different language used around the different operations. This activity will allow children to discuss and compare the different terminology used for the two operations, addition and subtraction.

Living things and their habitats classification activity. Venn and Carroll Diagram

(0)
A classification activity for children learning about ‘Living Things and their Habitats.’ This resource includes 2 Venn Diagrams (one more complex than the other) and 1 Carroll Diagram. The children can then add their own criteria to the diagrams e.g. has a back bone, lives in the desert and then should use the images (also included) to classify the animals and plants. Children could also draw their own images. This resource is completely ready to go! Enjoy :)
'I am reading' display cards

'I am reading' display cards

(1)
Simply edit the names and then print these cards off onto coloured paper of your choice and display as desired. This is a great way to monitor what your children are reading and for them to see which books each other are reading too. I will get the children to stick new post-it notes on top of old ones which will then create a reading-log in itself. Both myself and my TA’s have a card too as we want to join in the fun and the kids love seeing which books we’re reading!
