A worksheet created to introduce the topic of the Romans in KS2. This asks children to look at several artefacts discovered in the UK and suggest what they might be. Encourages inference and deduction skills. Would be a useful replacement for classrooms where actual Roman artefacts are not accessible.

A series of worksheets to be used for geographical inquiry with KS1. It asks children to identify features of a place, and suggest what it might be like to live there. Links also to work on city/town/village. I originally used this as a continuous provision activity, but it could easily be part of a lesson.

Differentiated questions linked to figurative language in a poem linked to the Romans. Can be used as part of a series of work on poetry, figurative language or generally as part of a topic on the Romans. Ideally suited to LKS2 but could also be used in UKS2.

An example character description for Macbeth. This was originally used in Year 5/6 but could also be used in KS3. Includes the use of semi colons, different sentence openers, conjunctions etc. Originally used as a model character description, this could be used as a prompt to describe Macbeth, or as a sample text to analyse for literary features.

An activity used with UKS2 to compare primary sources linked to Adolf Hitler. This could also be used in KS3. Children are asked to compare different accounts and portrayals of Hitler, and to assess their reliability. This also links to the concept of propaganda. Three different sets of questions are included for differentiation.

A couple of activity sheets used in KS2 when exploring and comparing biomes around the world.

A set of picture prompts (buildings, countryside, maps, food etc) to prompt geographical inquiry about different countries in Europe. Originally this was used as a geography skills lesson, but this could be incorporated into a wider topic on Italy, Europe, Poland or the UK. Two sets of documents enclosed - one is just picture prompts for initial discussion. The second set enables pupils to share their responses (worksheets).

A simple worksheet used alongside the book “Anno’s Mysterious Multiplying Jar” to introduce the concept of factorials. Originally this was used to stretch some able Year 6 pupils, but it would also be relevant to KS3. I can highly recommend using the book as a way of exploring multiplicative concepts.

Originally used with Y4/5, this is a lesson prompt and two worksheets asking children to use a range of geographical images to describe a place. The prompt sheet contains photos of places, wildlife and maps from various places in South America.

A week of English activities linked to describing WW2 evacuees. This unit of work was designed for a group of children working significantly below KS2 standards, so that they were able to successfully access work on the same topic as their peers. Originally this was used in KS2, but this could also be relevant to SEND pupils in KS3. An overview of the week is provided, as well as activities to complete.

A simple worksheet to encourage children to ask questions about historical sources. Contains pictures of three artefacts/pictures from the Stone Age, and questions about them. Have used with Year 3 but would also be suitable for KS2 or lower KS3.

A variety of line guide options that I have used across KS1 and KS2: small lines, wider lines and two handwriting paper options. Landscape and portrait options available.

A powerpoint and worksheet used as part of a topic on Italy/Romans, looking at the links between food, farming and climate. Children are asked to explore what the popular foods in Italy tell us about agriculture and climate. Originally used in Year 4, but could be used with slightly older or younger children.

A powerpoint and lesson activity exploring changes during the Stone Age period. This encourages children to explore the introduction of farming, and the wider impact this had on developing communities. Ideally suited to KS2.

Included are five sets of cards, each describing a different country (Poland, Finland, Cuba, France and Romania) Each set contains facts about the human and physical geography of each country, as well as photos of a variety of locations. I use this as a starting activity to get children thinking about different countries around the world. They need to use their existing knowledge and atlases to identify the country.

A poem based on the Romans to be used as a model text when teaching poetry. Contains examples of repetition, rhyme, alliteration, similes and metaphors. Suitable for KS2, or lower KS3. A set of differented questions is also available.

A series of simple activity sheets to help children consider their worries, and how they could deal with them. I used this as part of a “mindful moments” session during registration. There is also a set focussing on positivity and gratitude.
