This lesson looks at where in the world is Greece, countries in Europe and provides a framework for pupils to carry out independent research using the internet, recording answers on a worksheet, giving a clear scaffold and learning experience to keep children on task and avoiding ‘copying and pasting’. It is scaffolded with specific questions linking to specific websites and differentiated for MAP (middle ability pupils), LAP and HAP. It covers literacy skills and supports reading for information, note taking and sentence writing. Maps, objectives, review and teaching pages are included, along with the differentiated worksheets.

Promethian and Notebook versions. I am an outstanding teacher with over 25 years experience. I hope this saves you time ... :) x Please leave me a lovely review or any suggestions you would like me to change. I put week 3 and 4 into only 1 Promethian/Notebook file for each week as having used weeks 1 and 2 after making them I found it a pain to keep opening separate files if I hadn't finished them the previous day. Let me know which system you prefer or any other changes. But if you like them please rate my resources so they get higher in the searches, after you have tried them with your classes.

Thank you - I was a behaviour support teacher and regularly worked with pupils who needed to be able to name, describe and manage feelings. See my other resources too. Thank you for buying. Includes a transition game which was good for ASD kids too. You just need to draw some marks on a large white board or white board table for the counters or develop your own individualised game board. There is a base board but you might want to individualise it.. Also includes leaflets for training or for pupils adapted for each audience. There is group work for Autism awareness for aged 5-14 which could be adapted up or down too. Lots of stuff I have used successfully over the years
