Explore Reading! Booklet

(0)
This is an amazing resource that I made to get children of any age (I use it for primary and secondary) to look at a wider range of texts and to develop understanding in all areas of writing (eg. structure, layout, purpose, format, text type). This resource is 34 pages but is set to print as an A5 booklet. It has a front cover, a page on how 20 minutes of reading a day can improve reading dramatically, a page on how to prepare yourself to get the best out of reading, a page on how to use the book and a page on all the types of texts the student needs to read. These include newspapers, play scripts, comics, football report, diary, letter, fiction and non-fiction etc. There are a total of 14 to be completed. I give these to my students to complete at home and at least 1 should be done per week; but they could be done in school time. I hope you like it:)

One Word Learn! Vocabulary Starter PowerPoints

3 Resources
INCLUDES BOTH POWERPOINTS AND A STARTER IDEA DOCUMENT (3 pages)! One Word Learn! Is a brilliant and effective way of getting secondary students to learn new vocabulary regularly. The PowerPoint is colourful and funky; personalise it with your name! The idea is to introduce 1 new word at the start of each English lesson (could also be used as a house or extra-curricular activity). You would spend about 7-10 minutes, start to finish on this. For each word there are 4 slides: Title slide: Introduces the word. Definition slide: Gives definition of the word from Oxford Dictionary. Example slide: Two sentences showing the context in which you could use the word in. Activity slide: A wide range of English activities to complete using your new words; such as synonyms, antonyms, sentences, word search, similes, metaphors etc. There are 10 words included in this PowerPoint and 41 slides in total. Our whole school use it and the progress and feedback has been extremely positive! Hope you like them!:)

Complete Whole Year Plan for Food Technology Lessons based on Jamie's Home Cooking Skills

(0)
A whole year’s full plan; everything you need to run a Food Technology course. 13 detailed PowerPoint lessons (the other lessons are practicals), includes videos, statistics, facts, helpful tips etc. The work book is included (separate documents) to be put together and filled in each lesson. Words in red on the PowerPoint are to be filled into the underlined gaps in their workbooks. The lessons have fun names as part of the fun! The whole course is detailed in an overview and everything is ready to go. The overview explains every lesson along with the practical lessons. Please note that you will have to ever so slightly adapt this to term dates, students’ needs/abilities etc. Here are a few examples of lessons: Brilliant Breakfasts, Luscious Lunches, Super Soups, Marvellous Mince, Vital Vegetables and Bountiful Bread (plus many more!). Apart from the lessons and the work book, this pack also includes: recipe cook book, costings sheet, cutting and preparing techniques, dates for cooking (so you can plan ahead and inform students), a list of all the resources, lesson overview, marking feedback sheet, order of lessons and a practical assessment log sheet. These resources will help you setup a whole cookery course for the year. Suitable for all ages as completely adaptable. Perfect for any cookery/DT teacher to help follow a structured syllabus. Was designed for secondary years 7-9 (KS3) but can be used for any year - even juniors (amend accordingly). I hope you like it:)
