My Lessons include:
Visually appealing graphics that encourage engagement throughout a lesson.
‘Do now/Starter’ activities with music to encourage fast and easy settling as the pupils arrive to lesson.
Progress steps: By having the student’s track their own progress, it creates ownership of goal achievement. The graphic representation of the students’ progress can be highly motivating. If improvements are not achieved, students can reflect on what changes need to be made to the intervention plan.
Peer and self-assessments (AfL) encouraging use of green pen self-assessment and purple pen peer assessment . This can be edited to meet the expectations of your school policy
Formative assessments to consolidate learning throughout (exam-style questioning, linking questions)
Plenary activities.
Extensions and challenge questions to reach higher ability students.
On screen timers to aid lesson plan and pupil focus.
Implementing subject specific key words throughout to encourage literacy

This is a ‘True or False’ revision lesson for Y5 science Earth and Space. It is differentiated by outcome so students can work through as many as they can.
Students highlight true statements green.
highlight false statements in pink.
They then have to correct the false statements, explaining how they know they’re not true or correcting the information.
My students found this incredibly useful coming to the end of their Earth and Space topic. They were allowed to work in small mixed ability groups and it addressed a lot of misconceptions.
Before allowing the children to ‘correct’ false statements, I suggest talking through whether the statements are true or false. Some of them are deliberately very challenging and the students need to look carefully at the wording of the statement.
A tricky problem solving lesson that all the children enjoy and are actively engaged in.
This is an Earth and Space y5 science topic revision lesson. It recaps all the most important pieces of information for the topic. Students in my class round this incredibly useful before sitting their end of topic assessment. I suggest printing it A3 and glueing into science books.
