As a class we watched the Prince of Egypt (available on Netflix) as part of our Egyptian/R.E. lessons. We then discussed the power of prayer (link to R.E.). The children examined each scene in the storyboard and wrote a short prayer underneath that the character may say at that time. Alternatively, the pictures could be used to sequence the events in the story. Image 1: Mother putting Moses in the river to save his life. Image 2: Moses seeing the treatment of the slaves. Image 3: Moses begging his brother to let the slaves go. Image 4: Family preparing a house with lambs blood over the door. Image 5: Moses just about to part the sea. Image 6: Moses looking forward to the future at the end of the movie.

This is a set of five texts which can be used during shared/guided reading sessions. Each text includes literal retrieval as well as ‘find and copy’ style questions and interpretation questions. The children should be given between 20 and 30 minutes to complete the questions therefore meaning their is time left to review the answers as a group/class. Within a whole class, the higher ability children can be given an initial task to complete, such as dictionary work, while the remainder of the class begin their text. After ten minutes the higher ability children then begin their text. This means all children should complete their work at the same time. All texts are aimed at Upper Key Stage 2, however could be accessible by confident Year 4 children or some Key Stage 3 children. Please note: I do not own the copyright to any of the texts used within these worksheets. Copyright for the original texts remains with the individual authors.

This is a page of images taken from Google all of which relate to Anglo Saxon life. Fantastic for children to create a ‘mood board’ style piece of work exploring all aspects of their lives. It includes images of runes, people, houses, mead halls, symbols and artifacts. I have also used to to create a ‘Final WOW’ at the end of a unit where children create an explanation of Anglo Saxon life and present it to the class. A great resource with plenty of uses!

A word bank with pictures and meanings. Split into two sections, one to describe the fire and one to describe the feelings of people affected. Some words have brackets to give a simple meaning. A great little resource to encourage the use of high level vocabulary all through this unit. We used it when writing a newspaper report and a diary entry from the time.

Here we have 6 addition word problems. I have split each one so they can be cut and stuck into books easily. These are 2 digit add 1 digit, however could be quickly adapted to suit any numbers. There is also a challenge question at the end to extend those children who finished early.

This is an activity pack including 6 sheets of questions, answers, IWB file, self-assessment tool and planning. I have had very positive feedback using this lesson in observations. Everything you need is ready to go. Children will work in mixed ability pairs to answer questions on the following topics: multiplication division addition subtraction rounding to the nearest ten rounding to the nearest hundred word problems. Each time the children answer a question, they will select the matching answer at the bottom of the page and record the word shown. Once they have collected all of the words, they will see a hidden message. This is a clue to help them eliminate different suspects until only one remains - this person is therefore the murderer of Sleep Bear! It can easily be adapted to make it easier/harder by altering the questions and answers at the bottom of the page. A really fun, engaging lesson which works well as a standalone lesson for more able children or can be broken up into several lessons for those needing more time. All children will be fully engaged in learning, whilst also developing their vocabulary and explanation skills when helping their peers.

I have created a bank of 15 different items that can be purchased from different supermarkets. Underneath is a price which is differentiated three ways (red is lower ability, yellow is middle ability and green is higher ability). These can be easily edited to suit the needs of your children. They can be used for addition, subtraction, worded problems and open ended real world challenges.

Comprehension designed to be used with a lower ability year 5 class, but could easily be adapted for all of KS2. Made to raise awareness of nits as an issue and how to get rid of them properly. Updated edition. Image is taken from Google and I do not own copyright. Resource and questions written by myself.

This resource folds into a double flap booklet. It can be used for any topic and can be easily adapted. Lines can be increased in size to accommodate younger children or picture boxes can be added, removed etc.

Practical lesson for multiplication. Children will work in mixed ability pairs to calculate the answers. They must then move around the playground/hall/classroom to locate the answer on a poster and record the letter shown. Once they have gathered all of the letters, they must unscramble them to find the hidden code. An excellent lesson which engages all children. Also included is the lesson plan, posters for around the room and the sheet the children will write on. Has received excellent feedback in lesson observations and with Ofsted.

A resource that begins with 2x2 digit multiplication, then moves on to 3x2 digit and finally 3x3 digit. At the end there are three greater depth questions involving finding missing numbers using reasoning skills and finally a self assessment traffic light. A fantastic resource to assess learning at the end of the unit, as a revision lesson, for HAP as a task during lesson or to assess prior knowledge before beginning a unit. Also available with the answers. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/multiplication-review-or-lesson-worksheet-with-greater-depth-questions-with-answers-11784163

Children to write a summary of what is happening in the stained glass window scene. They can then colour the stained glass window. Great English lesson on the run up to Christmas or can be used in R.E.

Children will use the final verse of 12 days of Christmas to answer mathematical word problems. Aimed at KS2, but could also be used with support in KS1.

A selection of Christmas themed words scrambled out of order.

This is a selection of 15 images all containing an action (for example: a dog barking, a bird flying, a child skipping). These are to use in any capacity of a way of generating sentences. I have used them in order to provide ideas for work on main and subordinate clauses. The dog barked --> The dog barked when the doorbell rang.

A simple zone of relevance board. Children can use this for ANY topic as it is generic. Find words (either known or using a thesaurus) and sort them based on how well they describe the topic or person. The words which are okay sit on the outside, the words in the center of the diagram describe the person/topic perfectly. Can be a great starter task or activity for LAP.

Give children a selection of non-fiction books either based on your current topic or all topics. Children will work in pairs (sheets should be on a3 is possible) to look through the books and gather the relevant information. There is a higher and lower ability or children can work in mixed ability pairs.

Here is a set of differentiated resources which can be used for all abilities. There is a HAP, MAP, LAP and SEN resource. Children need to join the sentence to the matching adverbial phrase. There is also a word bank sheet for children to use with their own writing.
