Use the SB to briefly introduce Queen Victoria. Prior to the lesson sort out a set of photos/pictures for each group with the writing underneath the picture cut out so they do not know which photo and description go to together, Then hand out a set of the pictures and descriptions to each group and see which group can match each picture to its description first.

This poem could be studied over several lessons. I used this for SATS revision. Initially I read it and we discussed the meaning. Then I gave a verse out to each pair and asked one of them to practise reading it and the other to create a freeze-frame to show the main idea in the poem. Then we performed the poem in a circle. Most of the comprehension questions focus on the earlier part of the poem so you could add more questions if needed. Before you read the poem show them a photo of a wolf hound and afterwards show them a photo of his grave. Please leave feedback!

This sequence of lessons enables children to create their own firework poem from scratch, by using a helpful planning structure. I did this with my class last year and they wrote them up for display, drawing fireworks in the borders, and they were impressive.The children were proud of their work. The planning sheet helps them to generate adventurous and effective vocabulary, but it is flexible and the last two lessons show you how the children can make choices to create a unique poem. I have created a completed planning sheet for the teacher with interesting vocabulary.Each lesson begins with spellings and grammar. The ones on the slides are designed for year 5 and can be adapted but may also be appropriate for other year groups. You can follow the Smartboard slides which take you through the lesson and explain what to do, and/or you can read the lesson plans. It is important to have a flip chart to write on.

This is my simple version of bingo which involves everyone having the same board! They only highlight 4 or 5 of the squares and then get that number of counters. There is a mixture of questions and subtraction vocab such as minus, less, decrease and take away. You give clues by giving the answer to one of the questions or e.g. 'this is the subtraction symbol&'. The first one to have 5 counters on their board is the winner. This is a great way to teach children subtraction vocabulary and can be used as a starter or in the plenary.

Two Carroll diagrams to sort numbers on to. The easier one is 5 times table/not 5 times table even/not even and the second one is the same but this time it is the 6 times table. You can do the easier one all together on the carpet and then the children can do the 6 times table one at their desks. I teach in a set so I can able to give them all similar work. If you have different abilities you could adapt it to the 2 times table for example. Please leave feedback!
