Differentiated according to reading level information sheet to help write a biography, based on the book The Man Who Walked Between the Towers.

These four year 6 lessons (both on long division with some short division for your Lower Attainers) contain lots of differentiated practice questions with answers. All the lessons feature a final printable differentiated slide which can be used for independent work; if you want to save paper, the students can work from the board. I have included the answers for the independent work for both lessons to save our valuable teacher time!

These three lessons on the order of operations (made for my class when home learning) contain lots of differentiated practice questions . Each lesson has a slide with questions differentiated 3 ways for independent work after teaching. This can be printed off or they can work from the interactive whiteboard (if you want to save paper). I have included the answers so that you can get your class to self-mark or just to speed up your marking process (and save your valuable teacher time!).

This is 2 complete lessons on multiplying proper fractions and mixed numbers; it includes differentiated practice questions, a printable (differentiated) worksheet and the answers to save our valuable teacher time. Why not get your class to self-assess at the end of the lesson?

These entire lessons have lots of differentiated practice questions with answers that have 1-3 decimal places. The second lesson moves onto division with remainders as fractions and decimals. There is a final differentiated slide that you can print for independent work or get your class to work from the board. I have also included the answers so you can get your class to mark their own work to save valuable teacher time!

This is a week’s worth of lessons (5 lessons) based on 3 texts/extracts. It contains main teaching sessions and worksheets that are differentiated . Each worksheet and lesson makes the reading skill they are practising quite explicit. Lesson 1: Looks at a text about Serena Williams and revising looking at the meaning and impact of words on the reader Lesson 2: This lesson looks at the same text on Serena Williams but this time focuses on the skill of summary Lesson 3: This lesson also uses the text on Serena Williams and the class have to infer her personality traits using evidence from the text. Practise answering a 3 mark question Lesson 4: This lesson allows them to read a new text/extract and practise answering a 3 mark question about the character’s personality Lesson 5: This lesson involves a third text/extract from a Robert Louis Stevenson novel and the children must give their impressions of the house in a 3 mark question.

These two lessons include PowerPoint slides with starters on square, cube numbers and factors. They then move onto differentiated practice questions to practise plotting points with given coordinates and writing coordinates on all four quadrants. I made sure that I have laminated four quadrant grids for my class to practise on. Each lesson includes work documents labelled as LA, MA and HA (day 2 is LA2, MA2 and HA2) which are for independent work and a challenge question you can display on the board for once they finish. This could be done as a plenary.

These are two lessons I did with my year 6 class on finding fractions of amounts. It has lots of visuals showing how to find fractions of amounts. They contain lots of animations because it was easier to teach my class online this way! There are lots of differentiated practice questions with the answers of the next slide. For independent work, there is a differentiated slide which can be printed as a worksheet or the pupils can work from the board (if you want to save paper!). While they are completing their independent work, you can display the slide with the challenge on it which they can complete when they’ve finished. I have included the answers at the end to save teacher time -why not get your class to mark their own work!

I wrote this biography about Emmeline as an example for my year class. We were completing a unit about the Suffragettes and they were writing a biography about Emmeline. This was also really good for building up their subject knowledge about her.

This is a reading unit that I did with my year 6 class over the course of a half term. We would roughly do a lesson in the books every other day and read a chapter a day. Most of the lessons are differentiated for LA, MA and HA.

Four entire lessons on comparing fractions that I have used to teach my year 6 class throughout the year. Each lesson has mental starter, chances for the teacher to discuss and model the method, differentiated practice slides and a final slide which can be printed off as a worksheet. Finally, I have included challenge questions which can be displayed while the children are working independently and that they can complete when they have finished. I have included the answers on a separate slide which you can use to get your class to mark their own work or just make the teacher’s marking quicker! Spread these out during the Autumn, Spring and Summer term!

These two lessons (which I made for my class when home learning) both contain lots of differentiated practice questions with clear visual explanations. Both lessons have a slide with questions differentiated 3 ways for independent work after teaching. This can printed off or they can work from the interactive whiteboard . I have included the answers so that you can get your class to self-mark or just to speed up your marking process (and save your valuable teacher time!).

Used on two consecutive days for my year 6 class that has a range of abilities. This lesson starts off with two opportunities to discuss the method of how to round numbers. The method I usually teach my class is to circle the place value column you are rounding to. For instance, if you are rounding 456 to the nearest ten , circle the 5. Then underline the number to its right and this will tell you whether you round up or down. The PowerPoint then moves onto differentiated practice questions (answers on next slide so you can check the children’s whiteboards quickly). The final slide has steps to success and a challange question for the class to complete when they have finished their work. The worksheets are differentiated five ways. Two possible options for your LAs (indicated by ), one option for your MAs () and two options for your HAs (). The answers are at the end in case you want your class to mark their own answers and save teacher time! The second lesson is what I did the next day with my class as some of my Middle Ability children still were not secure. I have moved the class onto to rounding larger numbers to the nearest ten thousand and one hundred thousand. The questions are on the slides this time and include answers.

This is 8 weeks worth of Maths homework. Differentiated mostly for 4 levels (Spicy, Spicier, Spiciest and Scotch Bonnet). The children can choose their own level of difficulty or you can allocate what level they do. I gave one of these to my year 6 class each week of the 8 week Autumn Term (they cover place value and the four operations). The answers are at the end to make it easier and quicker to mark. The subjects covered are: -reading and writing numbers -rounding numbers -ordering numbers -negative numbers -formal written method of addition -formal written method of subtraction -formal written method of multiplication -formal written method of division

Want your class to realise why reading is so important? This is a reading comprehension that I gave my class as the start of term to really hone in why reading is so important! This resource includes: text, questions and answers at the end of the word document to make marking faster.

3 entire lessons on the formal written method of multiplication that I have used to teach my year 6 class. The lesson has chances for the teacher to discuss and model the method, differentiated practice slides (with answers on next slide so teacher can quick check) and a final slide which can be printed off as a worksheet. While the class are working independently, display the slide with challenge and Learning Objective so that they can complete this once they’ve finished. I have included the answers on a separate slide which you can use to get your class to mark their own work or just make the teacher’s marking quicker!

I used these lessons on my year 6 class in the Autumn Term. They include : -equivalent fractions -converting mixed numbers to improper fractions -comparing fractions -finding fractions of amounts -simplifying fractions (into simplest form) -multiplying fractions -dividing fractions The slides are very easy to use because they contain differentiated practice questions with answers and a printable worksheet with answers so that you can save your valuable teacher time and get your class to self-mark their work!

Please ignore the second preview image, it was distorted the Word document. This is a non-fiction reading comprehension that I gave my year 6 class for homework based on the famous education activist Malala Yousafzai. It inludes the text, questions and answers. The comprehension has 9 questions that are suitable for your LA, MA and HA children. The questions involve a mixture of skills such as retrieval, inference, explanation and vocabulary skills.

These are reading comprehensions which I gave my year 6 class with the answers. The questions are about chapters 1 and 2. Firstly, to encourage them to read the actual book which we have in our class library. Also to practise retrieval, inference, explanation and justifying their opinions with evidence from the text questions, all geared towards the SATs. The answers are at the end of the document.

These are 4 lessons that I did with my year 6 class using chapter 1,2 and 3 of The Secret Garden; this book has just the right amount of complex vocabulary to prepare your class for a potentially challenging text in the SATs. My class were finding answering the 3 mark questions particularly challenging. The first lesson involves reading chapter (you don’t have to finish it) and discussing Mary Lennox’s chilhood. We looked at the technique for answering 3 mark questions using Point, Evidence and Explain to answer a 3 mark question about her childhood. In the second lesson, we finished chapter 1 and read some of 2. We looked at answering the tricky ‘Yes’ ‘No’ ‘Maybe’ questions in the SATs where the children must properly explain and give their opinions to back up their choice. The third lesson is also based on chapter 2 and involves less teacher input and more questions involving skills they have learnt. It has a separate group of retrieval questions for your lower readers. The final lesson is on ‘impressions’ that certain words from chapter 3 can give the reader . Lesson 4 and 5 involve explanation to justify inferences and another ‘yes’ ‘no’ ‘maybe’ questions about Archibald Craven’s garden.
