In this lesson children will start with a physical warm up where they will show their preference to two items (one being a toy) . This will lead into a discussion about what a toy is and what children’s favourite is. Children will interview each other and proceed to write up their answers. The teacher will then show children a toy from the past. They will generate questions to ask the toy and then discuss how we can find our answers.

To know about toys in the 20th Century

(0)
Children will start the lesson by reflecting on their prior learning and vocabulary. Throughout all of their toys lessons children will be actively thinking of historical sources of information. Considering what is a good source of information and what might not be the best e.g children will think about how they aren’t a good expert group for toys from the 20th century as they weren’t alive during this era. Todays focus of historical information will be the internet. Children will be shown a basic timeline of toys popular in the 20th century created by the teachers research from the internet. Children will then go on to do a focus research on lego. Children will be guided creating useful questions. Children will final go onto present the facts they have learnt on a lego brick. With a chilli challenge and helping hands support to ensure all children maximise their learning. Thankyou for looking at my resource. All lessons start with children solving a problem that can only be solved using the LO. e.g identifying a picture through a sentence that doesn’t contain expanded adjectives so it is impossible to identify the picture.Research has shown that when children learn through problem solving and having ownership of their own learning they develop a deeper and longer lasting understanding. Powerpoint user guide Throughout children are encouraged to rewind on prior learning through rewind sections. Children are also exposed to fast forward where they will see how their learning applies to future learning (be this the next lesson or in future years) Chilli challenges encourage children to maximise their learning.

Comparing Victorian toys and modern day toys.

(0)
Thankyou for looking at my resource. In this lesson children will start with a warm up where they will think about the question - If you could make a toy what would it be? Children will rewind on their prior learning of modern day toys and 20th century toys. Children will continue to look at historical sources of evidence. Children will look at books about the Victorians to answer four questions. This will provide a general gist of when the Victorian era was, what Victorian life was like for the rich and poor and what schooling looked like. Children will be guided (in a ks1 manner) to make inferences about what Victorian toys might be like. Children will then learn about Victorian toys through an exploration of actual toys (pictures/videos may be needed if you can’t access Victorian toys) and then a teacher led input about the toys. Finally, children will complete small steps which will support them to independently make simple comparisons in their independent application. Chilli challenges encourage children to maximise their learning. Challenges should be given to all. Not just your most able. They are purposely open ended. The ‘differentiation’ comes from how your most able access the task. Helping hands provide children with additional supports to allow them to access the main learning.

To recognise how toys have changed over time - A Victorian TRIES to make a toy for modern children.

(0)
Thankyou for looking at my lesson. Today children will be introduced to a Victorian toy maker. They will start by using clues such as girl and boys toys to identify what era the toy maker came from. Using their prior knowledge on Victorian toys. Children will continue to reflect back on prior knowledge when they learn the maker is going to travel forward to modern times. Children will reflect on times such as the 20th century. The toy maker will then show children a toy and will explain why they think its a good toy (the toy is completely against modern times such as attitude and technology) Children will be taught about why things have changed. MSTA - Materials, safety , technology and attitudes. Children will write a letter to the toy maker explaining why the toy is unsuitable. Chilli challenge - Children will be encouraged to give a recommendation and explain why this is a better toy. Helping hands - Children will have a scaffold to allow them to focus on the facts rather than forming sentences.

PPT - To know how a food chain works and what producer, predator and prey mean.

(0)
This ppt builds up children’s understanding of food chains through the use of small steps. Children will start by demonstrating their understanding of herbivores, carnivores and omnivores. Children will then move onto discuss the link to prior science units such as light and electricity to allow them to build on previous learning. Children will discuss the type of energy that is involved in the food chain and how this is essential to animals survival. Children will then move onto learn about producers and consumers and then further build on this by developing an understanding of of prey and predator. Throughout the slides there are opportunities for common misconceptions to be addressed, children to be actively engaged with their learning through discussions and thinking points and finally the core concepts are built up slowly and repetition is used to deepen understanding.

To identify and name a variety of common animals - Zack the Zookeeper.

(0)
This is the first lesson in a sequence. Children will be working to help Zack the Zookeeper. Children will start the lesson by recapping on their prior learning via a game of which is an animal out of two choices. Children will then be taught a definition of animal. This will be applied to a number of tasks to ensure the meaning is embedded. Children will be introduced to Zack the Zookeeper. All lessons are based on learning generated from problem solving. Children will learn that Zack has done a number of things wrong but the issue is the task doesn’t name the animals e.g giving dog food to the animals. Children will be shown a number of animals grouped into the 5 main animal groups. This will support learning in the next lesson where children will be defining the five main animal groups. Independent application - Children will have 5 posters showing different animals and find an animal that starts with each letter of the alphabet. Helping hands - Support teacher ‘expert’ group. Chilli challenge - Children to be given an opportunity to think further about individual animals.
