<p><strong>Fully resourced 3 week unit for this text also available in my store!</strong></p> <p>I wrote this model text for year 3/4 children learning about the Stone Age (Bronze Age and Iron Age models are also included in your download). Important year 3/4 conjunctions, prepositions and adverbs are shown in red. The model has been written so that the children can easily use it to help them structure their own reports on the Bronze Age or the Iron Age. There is one image and it is from PIXABAY.</p> <p>I have also included some teacher notes about the text. If you are a talk for writing school, I have included the ‘story map’ for the first 4 paragraphs - that’s the amount we ‘talk’ off-by-heart.</p> <p>I have included Bronze Age and Iron Age versions of the Stone Age model. This is to show how the model can easily adapted to new subjects, and to give ideas for outcomes that the children could research and write.</p> <p>Finally, there are two activities related to the Iron Age version of the model that may be handy. One involves adding prepositions to information sentences. The other involves organising information in a sensible way (sub headings, captions etc).</p>

<p>Five activities using subordinating conjunctions with a Stone Age theme.<br /> Designed for year 3 but easily adaptable.<br /> Activity 1 - circle the subordinating conjunctions<br /> Activity 2 - underline the subordinating conjunction<br /> Activity 3 - match the clauses to the appropriate subordinating conjunction<br /> Activity 4 - place the comma in the correct position<br /> Activity 5 - choose the best conjunction to fill the gap</p>

<p>5 lesson sequence for the book ‘Stone Age Boy’. We use Vipers for whole class guided reading so the theme of each lesson links to these. Each lesson contains a PowerPoint, a worksheet for books and some sentence stems for lower ability children.</p>

<p>Includes 2 weeks of English planning for the Stone Age Boy.</p> <p>Week 1 - Writing predictions and setting descriptions.</p> <p>Week 2 - Making inferences and writing a letter in role.</p> <p>This planning is ideal for Year 3/ Year 4 early on in the year and linked to the Stone Age topic.</p>

<p><strong>Three week writing unit for Year 3/Year 4.</strong> A fully resourced and differentiated unit including all slides and activities. Drama! Talk! Reading skills! Grammar skills! Organising information in fun and inviting ways! It’s all ready to pick up and use.</p> <p>I have included the full unit in a zip folder (if you buy, just use the zip!), as you cannot see it all in the preview. The children begin with an assessment task (a cold task) and then spend a week exploring a model text about the Stone Age and learning some key grammar skills for year 3 and 4. They go on to learn about structure and organisation whilst also learning about mammoths! Finally they use all of their new skills to create their own information text about the Iron Age.</p> <p>The whole 15 lesson unit is full of games and activities focused on these skills:<br /> I can show what I already know about writing an information text<br /> I can ask questions to improve my understanding of the text<br /> I can quickly find information in non-fiction texts<br /> I can use conjunctions (when, before, after, while) to explain when things happen<br /> I can use prepositions (in, on, inside, at, by, during, before, after) to explain when and where<br /> I can spot the key features of information texts<br /> I can use paragraphs to group information<br /> I can use headings and sub-headings to organise an information text<br /> I can present (show) information in different ways<br /> I can use glossaries to check the meaning of words (repair ‘meaning breakdowns’)</p>

<p>A Stone Age Boy themed sentence builder linked to Colourful Semantics. It includes 4 frames that allow children to independently build and improve sentences based on images. This could be used alongside the topic of the Stone Age to help support lower attaining/SEN children.</p>

<p>Venn diagram with images for children to cut out and stick in the correct sections of the venn diagram.

I have also included a video of my own Mesolithic lesson (using these resources) which took place online for teacher’s understanding or to show the class.</p> <p>This pack is great for teaching kids all about the Mesolithic period of the Stone Age in your history lessons.</p> <p>This download includes:</p> <ul> <li>Complete 24 slide PowerPoint</li> <li>9 page printable worksheets (x3 differentiated)</li> <li>Blank worksheets</li> <li>Answer sheets</li> <li>Lesson video</li> </ul>

<p>This set of resources is designed for teaching the KS2 Stone Age History unit. It includes an engaging presentation, differentiated worksheets and stickers. The activity helps children categorise foods into those ‘hunted’ and those ‘gathered’. This reinforces the idea that Stone Age humans were primarily ‘hunter-gatherers’.</p> <p>There are three differentiated worksheets:<br /> - one with vocabulary for less able children<br /> - one with fill-in-the-blank sentences using commas in lists<br /> - one which extends more able children by asking them to explain how Stone Age humans hunted</p> <p>The stickers will print out on Avery address labels (21 per page).</p> <p>If you like this resource, we would appreciate a review!
