2 Place value lessons
I have linked the first lesson to my 'North America' topic but this could be taught even if this is not your topic. The children are required to write the populations of different towns/villages/cities and states in words. This task is differentiated by 4.
The children are then required to consolidate their learning by writing footballers salaries as words. (Differentiated by 3).
They will then learn to partition numbers by using chalk on the playground and large foam dice.
The differentiated challenges and detailed plans are included.
The bunting spells 'Sea of sounds' for a phonics display. I have also included blank glittery bunting for you so that you can make the bunting as long as you want.
Child initiated spelling activities that can be laminated and used again or used as worksheets.
All of the statutory year 5/6 words form the new NC are included.
I am also selling spelling lists for weekly spelling tests.
High 5 SPAG & English resource to consolidate key terms before leaving the classroom. The children need to say an example of the word class on the hand & say it out loud before leaving the classroom. They can High 5 the hand as they walk by.
I give these to one or two children in a lesson & invite them to become the ‘Grammar Police’. You can also allow them to wear a tabard or police hat. They sneak around the room & try to find errors in their peer’s work. This has worked as a really engaging form of peer assessment at our school.
