KS2 Character Description Macbeth
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.
Managing worries - mindful moments
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.
WW2 comparing sources and reliability
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.
Positivity and gratitude - mindful moments

I used this as part of a “mindful moments” session during registration. There is also a set focussing on dealing with worries.
KS1 geographical enquiry
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.
KS2 geographical enquiry South America
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 set of differented questions is also available.
Questions for Roman Poem
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.
Stone to Iron Age: comparison worksheet
A set of differentiated worksheets for pupils to compare life in the Stone Age to life in the Bronze age.
Ideally suited to LKS2 but could also be used with other age groups.
An ideal activity to explore change over time.
KS2 Roman artefacts historical enquiry worksheet
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.
Life in the Stone Age - changes
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.

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.
European geographical enquiry (Italy, Poland, UK, Norway)
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).
Factorials Intro - Anno's Mysterious Multiplying Jar
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.
KS2 Parts of Circle - Penny Farthing
A worksheet that asks children to find different parts of circles, linked to the Victorians and Penny Farthings. Children must identify the radius/diameter when given certain information.
There is an inbuilt challenge to calculate the circumference.
This was originally used as a Year 6 lesson, but could be used with more able younger children, or KS3.

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.
