You could look at it directly as a presentation and discuss the different races being shown in each of the photos. You could print off and laminate the photos to make an interesting, eye-catching set of story prompts. The students could also take five of the laminated photos and create them into a story . The photos could also be used as prompts for creative writing, factual writing or descriptive writing.

The publication of issue 20(1) of Research in LearningTechnology(RLT) is a landmark for the Association for Learning Technology (ALT). It is the first issue since the journal made the switch, on 1 January 2012, to Open Access, and the first with our new publisher Co-Action Publishing. Traditionally, research journals have been published under a subscription model, whereby subscribers (individuals or institutional libraries) receive access in return for payment, sometimes as part of their membership of a scholarly society, as has been the case for ALT.

“Going for gold” is a classroom topic about how to plan for short and long term goals. It helps students to understand that planning for their goals is an important step in achieving them, and that breaking down a long term goal into smaller steps will help to keep them on track and make their more complex goals achievable. Students will try out a goal planning exercise and reflect on how this could be useful to them in the future. This topic supports the learning outcomes in the Association for Careers Education and Guidance (ACEG) framework for career and work-related learning at Key Stage 4 but can be used with a range of groups depending on their needs and abilities, and provides good evidence of lesson planning. Two files are included with this topic. The first file is a lesson plan, worksheets and suggested running order for the activities. The lesson plan also includes differentiated learning goals, reflective questions and a “before and after” review of learning relating to this topic. The second file is a slide show presentation which can be used with a whiteboard or pc/laptop and projector, to add structure to the lesson for students. The slideshow has the same running order as the lesson plan, and includes modern and striking imagery to appeal to young adult learners.

These papers test skills that appear on both foundation and higher tier papers. Each paper has three versions to choose from: Bronze, Silver and Gold. They are the same questions, but the amount of scaffolding is adjusted in each. There are worked solutions to accompany every paper. The Platinum paper is an extension to further challenge your students.

Work as a team to develop creative and effective ways to spread the word about the importance of education for all. This lesson plan is part of a range of free resources produced for Send My Friend to School, the schools activity of the UK Global Campaign for Education. Inspired by the Olympics, we’re asking world leaders to Go for Gold in 2012, and keep their promise to get all children into school by 2015.

Key Stage 3 lesson on the crusades. The lesson is at least an hour long and can easily be two lessons. We start with retrieval practice starter. We then go on to introduce the concept of a crusade. We then examine Pope Urban’s famous sermon looking for threats to christians and potential rewards. We then introduce King Richard I before a classification task on the reasons why people went on crusade. The pupils classify the reasons in either money and power or religious reasons. The pupils then rank the reasons to work out what the main appeal of the crusades were. We then finish with a writing task where the pupils create a diary entry having been invited to join Richard’s crusade. Included is: Retrieval practice starter Source analysis task on Urban’s sermon of 1095 Classification task "For God or Gold" Extended writing task using a diary entry narrative. Post-it note plenary. Hope this helps. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer

GREAT TOOL FOR TEACHER, PEER OR SELF-ASSESSMENT IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION!!! This colorful Physical Education Poster displays an Olympic-themed, 4 point grading rubric that can be utilized by teachers during student, PE skill and/or concept assessment. It can also be informative for students during PE skill self-assessment and by their classmates through peer-assessment. The inspiration for this poster came from Krista Winn and April Baugh from Facebook (PE Central) posts of a 4 point rubric they use in their classrooms. The poster (in 4 colors) displays the 3 Olympic medals as motivation to improve PE assessment scores and provides a descriptor statement and graphical icons to help students easily relate to each score point. The posters are in a Zip folder with 2 Formats- PDF and JPEG (originally set for 8 ½ by 11 sheets) but they can easily be copied on a school or store Poster-Maker to convert to a large sized poster. You can then place it inside your gym or playing area for your students to see and for you to reference while you teach your daily physical education lessons. This Physical Education Poster is designed for all ages but is best suited for students from Kindergarten through the 8th Grade

This is a student or teacher controlled, realistic 3d simulation of an experiment that shows that the structure of an atom is consistent with having a small, postitively charged nucleus. The user controls the rotation of the particle detector whilst monitoring the number of particles it is detecting. The user is free to move anywhere within the laboratory in order to interact with the apparatus. You can try one of the simulations from our website. Instructions are viewable within the simulation. The simulation is perfect for demonstrating this experiment in front of the class but can also be used by students in a variety of ways: • Directly to prepare for a laboratory experiment by familiarising them with the equipment to be used and the methodology of the experiment. • As revision for an experiment that has previously been performed in the laboratory. • For home-learning where there is no access to a laboratory. • To make up for an experiment missed due to sickness. • As a personal experience of an experiment normally only performed by the teacher in front of the class. Downloads include: a PowerPoint giving full instructyons including a video, background on the Physics and the simulation application in a zip file. The Virtual Physics Laboratory of which this simulation is a part, has the Association for Science Education’s Green Tick of Approval. More information can be found on our website. I’ve found your software very useful when a concept comes up with pupils and I have to demonstrate something really quickly without having the time to set up a formal experiment for them. The graphics are great and I really like the ability to move around the classroom and observe the experiment from different aspects. I am far more likely to go to one of your interactive experiments if it’s demonstrating something that we don’t have equipment for.“ Andrew McPhee Wellington School I thought that the controls were pretty easy to get used to and the detail in the apparatus was excellent being able to zoom in and see the set up of the multi-meter and read scales, being careful of parallax. This type of software is most useful in experiments which can’t be done in the lab like the gravity on the moon or where the equipment is too expensive or difficult to use like the Millikan Oil drop." ​Physics Scholar Coordinator. ​Licence This product is for a single user and is for personal and classroom use only.
