Year 2 living things and their habitats complete unit

Thankyou for looking at my resources

This unit is made up of five lessons.

Each lesson Includes a fully comprehensive powerpoint and word resources catering a range of abilities.

Lesson 1 -To compare differences between things that are alive, used to be alive and never been alive.
Lesson 2 - To identify how living things depend on each other.
Lesson 3 - To find and name animals in a microhabitat and explain why they are suited to living there.
Lesson 4 - To identify animals and plants in world habitats.
Lesson 5 - To use a food chain to explain how animals get their food.

All lessons start with active rewind (recap) tasks. These provide an informal assessment for teachers, remind children of their prior learning to help learning go into their long term memory and put relevant prior learning in the forefront of children’s minds as they acquire new learning.

Children will have stem sentences to support oracy and enable children to focus on the learning rather than forming sentences.

Independent task

In each lesson children will be built up to completing an independent task/s.

Every task has a helping hands task which aims to remove barriers to children accessing the main task such as using stem sentences to allow children to focus on their learning not the structuring of sentences.

The chilli challenge should be provided to all learners the ’ differentiation ’ will be based on how children complete the task.
