<br />

A step-by-step guide with opening sentences to help pupils explain all parts of an investigation from the Prediction to Evaluation. Differentiated checklists for drawing graphs and templates of tables also included. Can be used for any of the Sciences.
Three, short activities to assess on-going learning during a lesson. Can be used for any subject and all abilities as they are easily differentiated up or down with no extra work for the teacher. <br />
Activity 1: determines any confusion/lack of understanding.<br />
Activity 2: requires all pupils to contribute an answer from their current learning.<br />
Activity 3: think and link activity prevents straight recall, encouraging more in-depth answers<br />

Equipment = Mini-whiteboards and pens but sticky notes/scrap paper would suffice.
This resource can be used as:<br />
1. a display<br />
2. an inclusion in an exercise book<br />
3. a resource to collect from a folder when needed - cut out triangles (laminate if time), hole punch through the tops and tag them together.<br />
<br />
Upper and lower ability versions included.<br />
<br />
Four triangles holding prompts/suggestions for:<br />
Vocabulary<br />
Connectives<br />
Openers<br />
Punctuation<br />
<br />
Pupils can use them independently or teacher can highlight to the whole class using the PPT, which terms/punctuation should be used.<br />
<br />
If stuck in exercise books, pupils can tick off the terms/punctuation they have used. If one area say, connectives is an issue, then only that triangle need be glued in books.
Gives unusual examples of how animals enhance our lives. Opportunity for pupils' pets to be added in the &'gallery&'; section. Suggests how we can thank animals for their positive role in our lives. Would be better if you add music as it plays on slide transition.
