YOU MUST HAVE MS ACCESS TO USE THIS LESSON (THE FBI FILES IS A DATABASE!). Teachers need to show students how to carry out a query using Microsoft Access first. Students can then use the database provided to independently practice their ability to carry out a query by answering questions 1 - 7 on the provided handout. Teachers should then bring the class together to play 'Guess Who' using the PowerPoint and database. Teachers display the clues to each of the four people and students should carry out a query to find the correct person. A reward for each quickest query-carry-outer could be provided. A long activity to complete your database lesson for Key Stage 3 ICT or Computing/Computer Science!

Everything is included! There’s a PowerPoint which guides teachers through the lesson, including speaker notes with additional commentary. Activities: Discuss differentiated outcomes / objectives Mind map ways a business can be ethical Discussion on ways a business can be ethical Cut and paste group sort activity ethical or unethical? (hand out/worksheet included) Discussion on ethical or unethical practice (answers included on PowerPoint) Design/display work (A3 handout) - students design a new ethical milkshake brand Differentiation: higher abilities also add how much their brand will do ethically compared to competitors. Should be quite a fun lesson for what is often a tedious topic. Some good display work can be produced too if students are allowed time to colour/design their brand ideas. Would also suit PHSE topics on ethical trading/fair trade etc.

This 8-page booklet is mapped against OCR GCSE Business Studies J204. This resource includes a printable PDF version AND a PowerPoint version that learners can complete and submit online, via Google Classroom etc.   Answers included in separate PDF document! Homework sheets on: The Finance Department/Function Sources of Finance Revenue and Costs Fixed and Variable Costs Break-even Point Break-even Chart Cash Flow Forecasts      If you set one page each week, that’s more than enough for a half term. The pages also act as a good discussion point for a starter in the following lesson too (win, win!).      To REDUCE MARKING - there’s the smallest space for teachers to put 4 ticks to assess each homework. Low stakes, low work-load marking!

This resource depends on you teaching Business Ownership first (sole traders, partnerships and companies). Students should be given a printed version of the puzzle (the one with two pages). I get them to work in pairs as they can both be cutting at the same time to reduce ‘cutting time’. They both cut out one of the pages then get to work creating a triangle solution by connecting matching statements. There is only ONE way the puzzle will become a triangle correctly, so it’s trial and error but a GREAT task to consolidate learning of Business Ownership topic. I then get learners to stick their puzzles down on A3 paper (two sheets, because it just sticks over one A3 page). Alternatively, you could cut the puzzle and laminate for year on year use. I’ve included the solution. To ensure ALL students can access it, I print the solution on A3 paper and stick it in the corridor. Each pair gets a few chances to go out and take a peek, if needed. Finally, I’ve included a plenary to review the tarsia puzzle and a homework true or false activity on Business Ownership, this might work well as a homework task to see what students have learnt from the puzzle. Enjoy!

Suitable for any Business Specification where students need to know what Fixed and Variable Costs are. Also discussed (and has an activity) for working out total costs and profit etc. DO NOT BUY if you already have my TASK 5 for Cambridge Nationals. This resource includes ALL theory notes, loads of activities. All top quality. Enjoy.

A blank storyboard template allowing for six scenes to be planned.

A quick and easy starter activity. Students need to name the parts of a computer (leading to my lesson on input, output or storage devices which is also available in my resources). Enjoy!

This lesson includes an editable lesson plan, PowerPoint for display, group work task, extension tasks, G&T task AND lower ability task. The lesson starts by recapping or introducing stakeholder groups. Students have a challenge to name or identify as many groups as possible. Students are then introduced to conflict with a scenario of a new supermarket opening locally. They must work in groups to focus on one stakeholder group each. This is discussed as a class. Conflict is discussed then an activity concludes the lesson on resolving the potential conflicts identified. Enjoy.

Update: The files marked NEW! include a template for this resource which already has the hyperlinks included in PowerPoint; so if you’re tight on time, students can still make use of this resource without having to learn how to make links. Along with this are 6 challenges (differentiated) and a log for students to complete and take with them - PERFECT for Year 6 Induction in a computer room/IT/Computing lesson. As it’s the end of term, this fun activity still gets students learning about how to add hyperlinks into PowerPoint presentations. The scary maze can be changed for Santa’s maze, if you’re aiming to do something ‘Christmassy’! The activity gets students to create a version of the ‘scary maze game’ (Google it!). They find a scary image that, if their users hit the wall of their maze, will flash on the screen (after slides are linked). I don’t want students having nightmares though, so I have provided an alternative ‘nicer maze game’ too! Included is a student handout, PowerPoint to act as a short lesson guide (two versions - scary and nicer) as well as a scream sound for students to use if placed on a shared area. As always, feedback is welcome! Enjoy! *Copyright - I either own everything or it comes from an acknowledged, royalty free source!

---This resource is similar to the domino resource, so don't buy if you've already invested in that resource!--- Cut out, match up and stick down exercise OR cut out and laminate for a reusable resource. Perfect for KS2 or year 7 french, introducing names of animals/pets or for lower ability year 8 groups. Printing in colour will also help highlight the usage of le/la un/une for masculine/feminine words. Ideal starter to introduce the words, main activity to reinforce translations or plenary to review a lesson. The presentation can also be printed and laminated for display purposes. Printing on A5 could make it form part of a keyword wall or printing 4 to a page would make ideal flashcards! Enjoy. Feedback always gratefully received too.

An introduction to organisation/organization charts. This resource includes a lesson PowerPoint (full lesson), three differentiated activities with increasing difficulty and a lesson review (exit note). Teachers could either give students the sheet to draw all three charts or give students different examples to complete based on ability, which is why there are different versions. Teachers may also wish to get students to create the charts themselves OR could use the templates provided - or lower ability students could be provided with the templates. All companies are fictional, logos designed by me, Enjoy.

NEW! See a preview of part of this resource in the video below... This is part of a series of lessons for KS2 or KS3 maths on Averages. This lesson introduces the Median. All four averages lessons are listed separately OR as one short unit of work at a discounted price (£10), just check my other resources! The PowerPoint introduces the median then gives two teacher led activities to guide students through finding the median. After each teacher led part, the students get a chance to try themselves, where they can ask questions or even work in pairs. After discovering what the median is and having a go with help, students are given an independent task to work out the median. Some of the answers involve finding the middle value between two given numbers, so not just putting the values in order! An answer sheet is provided for the teacher too, and all answers pop up on the PowerPoint itself! The lesson is reviewed by students feeding back at the bottom of their handout. All images are either royalty free or made by myself (those coins and football shirts took some work!). Enjoy ;-)

This lesson is PERFECT for an end of term Computing lesson or as a really FUN introduction to Scratch Programming. The 17 slide PowerPoint guides acts as your FULL lesson planning, guiding students through the process of making a racing car game in Scratch. It introduces and explains key terms like Spite, Stage and Variable as the lesson goes along too. If you wish, you could give students the glossary handout to complete throughout the lesson as seven key terms have been highlighted in PINK text to be written into the glossary and defined as the lesson progresses (optional extra!). The lesson includes a short peer assessment activity to look at each other’s games and offer pointers for improvements. In addition, the code on the handout could be annotated by students as a homework task or additional plenary. The lesson includes an extension challenge for higher ability students (fully differentiated by outcome, task and resources available to students). This would really suit KS2 or KS3 classes. My students LOVED it; I’ve used it with all of my year 7 Computing groups as a fun end of term lesson AND with my lower ability year 9 Computer Science GCSE group as an ice breaker introductory lesson to programming basics. Enjoy!

Instructions for teachers on how to create and use look up tables within Excel to calculate grades from scores automatically. Equally, you might use these instructions when teaching this skill to students. I hope these instructions are fairly straight forward. I used Excel 2013 for the print screens, though the skill is similar in whatever Excel version is being used. Great for staff training. ALL staff should know how to do this to save time when tracking data. Enjoy!

NEW! See a video preview of part of this resource below! Reading the description will help you see if this is suitable for your students' ability. I would say, however, that this resource is ideally suited to upper KS2 / lower KS3. This resource is a FULL lesson which introduces Mean Average. All four averages lessons are listed separately OR as one short unit of work at a discounted price, just check my other resources! The PowerPoint goes through what mean average is/how it's calculated. It then has two examples that can be done with your class (teacher led) - all answers are on the PowerPoint too. After each of the teacher led examples is one that students need to try themselves (these are labelled 'try it' on the PowerPoint). These are at the top of the worksheet. Students could try these, with help if needed - this could even be done is pairs. Finally, there's an independent task that has ten examples for students to calculate. These include numbers in the thousands, so differentiation by task is possible. Some answers include decimals. An answer sheet is provided for the teacher too. The lesson is reviewed by students feeding back at the bottom of their handout. All images are either royalty free or made by myself (those coins took some work!). Enjoy ;-)

FULL lesson on Business Communication Methods (no lesson plan, just worksheets in booklet). These are best used AFTER you’ve taught, or at least introduced, verbal/non-verbal communication and internal/external communication. I actually mark page 2 of the booklet as a test out of 20 to assess understanding of the topic. Space on the front for teacher assessment WWW and EBi. Starter - Identify the methods of communication from the images. Peer marked. Extension - think of more methods of communication Main - Questions (after teaching) on verbal/non-verbal and internal/external communication Main 2 - Give a suitable method of communication for Review (or second lesson) - rate methods of communication on speed, cost and whether receipt is confirmed. Enjoy.

Saves making your own! 7 basic rules for students to follow when in the ICT suite/computer room. Enjoy!

NEW! See the video preview of the PowerPoint BEFORE choosing to buy. ALL resources are included and TOP quality. This is an investment and great for new teachers or those that want to increase student engagement. This is my first Plenary Wheel resource - 8 generic plenaries to end ANY lesson. If you like this, why not try the sequel with 8 additional plenary activities, so you’ll have 16 to get you through the academic year! Slide 1 includes a spinning wheel that can be stopped by clicking STOP to choose the plenary for the lesson. Includes a selection of eight plenary ideas (and supporting resources) with an engaging interface to grab students’ attention at the end of a lesson. Interactive, students LOVE shouting STOP to select the plenary activity! Suitable for all subject areas… you may never have to plan a plenary activity ever again, although don’t tell your senior leaders I said that!
