A clear and engaging PowerPoint which introduces the definition for nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs. Once the children have understood the word type, they can work as a class to think of as many examples as possible to consolidate learning. There is extended learning on adverbs where the children develop their understanding of the different purposes of adverbs: adverbs of time, place, manner, frequency or degree. I have also included a sorting activity that children can complete independently, in pairs, in groups or as a class. Enjoy!

Included in this pack is a teaching PowerPoint to use for teaching Word Families. This PowerPoint is extremely engaging and requires the children to ineract throughout. It also includes a game/activity where the children can consolidate their learning. NEW Worksheet has just been added too!

A simple ASD screener for primary and secondary school pupils. Please note, this screener does not provide a confirmed diagnosis of ASD 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 ASD. 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 ASD, SRS-2 ASD Questionnaire, NHS NDD Teacher Observations Questionnaire. Please remember, the autism spectrum is not linear and it is common for an individual to show more difficulties in one area than another. This was created by an inclusion coordinator of a multi-academy trust and an experienced SENDCO.

A medium term plan including the key learning expectations covered in History and Geography, ideas for continuous provision/enrichment and 11 in-depth lesson plans. A knowledge organiser which is a summary of the key facts and essential knowledge that pupils need about a unit of work or a curriculum subject. The information is presented clearly and is broken down into easily digestible chunks. The activities included: To order British periods of time chronologically. To order the main turning points of the Roman Empire in Britain. To create a zig-zag timeline. To understand the spread of the Roman Empire and identify the spread on a map. To create my own Roman shield. To create a model of a local Roman town: Venta Icenorum. To research an iconic Roman figure and create an information book about them. To design and make my own Roman mosaic. To mark Roman roads on a map of Britain. To create a model of a Roman road. HISTORY NATIONAL CURRICULUM STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS: Pupils should be taught about: • the Roman Empire and its impact on Britain. This could include: Julius Caesar’s attempted invasion in 55-54 BC, the Roman Empire by AD 42 and the power of its army, successful invasion by Claudius and conquest, including Hadrian’s Wall, British resistance, for example, Boudicca, ‘Romanisation’ of Britain: sites such as Caerwent and the impact of technology, culture and beliefs, including early Christianity. • Roman withdrawal from Britain in c.

Design a zoo whilst learning about area and perimeter. I have an online teaching video to go alongside this resource where I teach the children everything they need to know. This pack includes everything you need to teach area and perimeter and for the children to complete an independent activity where they design their own zoo using their new knowledge of area and perimeter. It includes: A zoo themed booklet (missing illustrations as I painted them on but leaves space for yourself or children to add your own designs) The instructions Teaching support A list of enclosures with their price and enclosure size in metre squared A zoo planning design sheet An area and perimeter application activity 5 further activities to develop their learning further A teaching video below which explains everything you need to know! TES will no longer let me post my YouTube link for the teaching video which goes alongside this resource. However, if you go onto YouTube and search, ‘Let’s design a zoo! Area and perimeter with Miss Cole’ you should find it :) This is, by far, my class’s favourite maths project!

A very interactive writing/science project for children aged 5+. Throughout the project the children work on their fieldcraft and learn how to take field notes before designing and making their very own British Bird Field Guide. The children absolutely loved this project! TES are no longer letting us post links onto our resources so I am no longer able to add the direct link to take you to my teaching video for this resource. However, if you go onto YouTube and search, The British Bird Project with Miss Cole’ the video should come up :) Enjoy!

A comprehension activity for chapter 1 of The Butterfly Lion by Michael Morpurgo. This can be used alongside my YouTube teaching video which is linked to this resource. This resource links to the following statutory requirements from the National Curriculum: Pupils should be taught to: develop positive attitudes to reading, and an understanding of what they read, by: listening to and discussing a wide range of fiction, poetry, plays, non-fiction and reference books or textbooks reading books that are structured in different ways and reading for a range of purposes using dictionaries to check the meaning of words that they have read increasing their familiarity with a wide range of books, including fairy stories, myths and legends, and retelling some of these orally identifying themes and conventions in a wide range of books preparing poems and play scripts to read aloud and to perform, showing understanding through intonation, tone, volume and action discussing words and phrases that capture the reader’s interest and imagination recognising some different forms of poetry [for example, free verse, narrative poetry] understand what they read, in books they can read independently, by: checking that the text makes sense to them, discussing their understanding, and explaining the meaning of words in context asking questions to improve their understanding of a text drawing inferences such as inferring characters’ feelings, thoughts and motives from their actions, and justifying inferences with evidence predicting what might happen from details stated and implied identifying main ideas drawn from more than 1 paragraph and summarising these identifying how language, structure, and presentation contribute to meaning retrieve and record information from non-fiction participate in discussion about both books that are read to them and those they can read for themselves, taking turns and listening to what others say

Staff meeting/training used to raise Awareness of ADHD and share strategies to support individuals with ADHD. This training has been created by a SENDCO of multiple schools and an Inclusion Coordinator of a Multi-Academy Trust.

This training could also be used to raise awareness of ADHD with parents/carers. This training covers: What is ADHD? What causes ADHD? Co-occurence with other conditions Symtpoms of ADHD ADHD subtypes: inattentive, hyperactive/impulsive and combined What ADHD can feel like Dispelling myths of ADHD The science behind ADHD and dopamine Strategies to support individuals with ADHD
