Everything a year 4/5/6 pupil could need on one double-sided maths mat! Great for quick reference to key facts (such as fraction, decimal and percentage equivalents or reminders about the greater than/less than symbols) and scaffolding the work for children who are struggling with aspects of maths, such as multiplication knowledge.

All of the reading expectations for year 5 pupils drawn from the new national curriculum. It’s been split into three columns: working towards, working at and working above the expectations for the year group. I use these after completing end of term tests and date or tick the aspects in the grid that they have achieved independently, helping you to gain a more accurate picture of what the pupil understands and find any gaps in their knowledge. Reading targets for Years 1 - 6 can be found on my profile and all of these can be purchased in a bundle for the bargain price of just £4 (saving you enough money for a couple of celebratory sausage rolls from Greggs)! Alongside this, similar assessment grids are available on my profile for maths, writing, science and foundation subjects. In conjunction with these grids, I have several whole class guided reading units that are guaranteed to engage your pupils - with texts that cover everything from the history of Spam through to war poetry.

All of the science targets for years 5 and 6 in one handy format that can be glued into the front/back of a science book and marked off when the areas are covered. Alternatively, you can use it to keep track of how the class as a whole is progressing, or use it to aid in the differentiation of a task as the targets match up across the columns of ‘working towards’, ‘working at’ and ‘working above’ the expectations. The science targets for key stage 1 and lower key stage 2 can be found on my profile and purchased separately at £1 each, or all three grids can be purchased in a bundle for £2.50 - that way you can use the savings to buy two Freddo bars. Or, you can time travel back to 2005 and buy five Freddo bars.

This is the fourth lesson in a six-lesson unit of whole class guided reading which focuses on war poetry from World War 1. Perfect for KS2 (I personally delivered these lessons to my class of years 5/6). Individual lessons are priced at £1 but the full unit of lessons is only £4. Each lesson includes all the resources ready to deliver a fantastic session: a PowerPoint presentation (with difficult language already explained), any worksheets or texts needed for the children and differentiated Success Criteria! Also, remember that all PowerPoint presentations can be opened using ActivInspire (send me a message if you need help exporting the file!) The unit will cover the following areas: Lesson 1 - discussing the genre and predicting the features of the poems Lesson 2 - summarising the events in Wilfred Owen’s 'Dulce et Decorum Est’ Lesson 3 - pupils will take learning into their own hands and study one of Siegfried Sassoon’s famous war poems: ‘How to Die’, ‘Suicide in the Trenches’ or ‘Absolution’ Lesson 4 - in this lesson, the class will be comparing the poems they’ve already read with Jessie Pope’s pro-war poem ‘The Call’. This is a great lesson for discussions on the themes of pro and anti-war poetry! The questions are scaffolded with the sentence stems provided for their answers Lesson 5 - for a different twist on the theme, this lesson will be looking at Ted Hughes’ ‘Platform One’ and the children will be visualising the poem by drawing key scenes from it Lesson 6 - one final look at the work of Wilfred Owen and the fantastic ‘The Sentry’. Pupils will develop their ability to skim, scan and close-read by working out if the statements are true or false

Ever taught a damn fine lesson - ticking off every VAK style of learning and taking your pupils to the heights of what their brains can handle, only to find out that little Timmy in the corner understood very little and instead of asking for help, sat there trying to extract the grime from under their finger nails? Well with this simple set of display posters you need never have that experience again! Simply display somewhere prominent and ask the children to show - using their fingers - their level of understanding after teaching a key concept. I use it before every independent task and that way my focus, and that of my TA can be aimed at the children that are weak in their understanding, as well as extend the pupils who can make connections to other areas of the curriculum. Dependent on your cohort, if might prove a refreshing instance of them sticking two fingers up at you without the intent to insult.

Every GPS definition you’ll need to display to your class of little angels (or devils - cohorts do vary after all). The display resource is given as both a PDF and an editable .pub. This is part of a GPS definition set for a whole school. Buy KS1, LKS2 and UKS2 for £1 each or buy the whole set for the reasonable sum of £2.50 - saving yourself enough money that could be used to buy a long stick with which you could pat yourself on the back for buying such a fantastic display resource.

Similar to Ronseal in that it does what it says on the (metaphorical) tin, but, sadly, you can’t paint your shed with it. Yes, it’s a dyslexia-friendly place value mat! It’s been colour-coded because I like pretty colours and it has the knock-on effect of helping children read out numbers accurately by grouping them into sets of three; no more ‘seven and sixty-nine thousand’.

An excellent PowerPoint to start every day in October with an interesting event that happened on that day in the past along with a relevant picture or photo to illustrate the event.
