A short comprehension aimed at lower KS2 based on the famous eruption of Pompeii.
I used this in a whole class guided reading session. We explored much of the vocabulary together and used talk partners and teacher modelling to answer the questions.
Also available as part of two different bundles: ‘Natural Hazards’ and ‘Romans’.
Save a whopping 57% on individual resources with this ‘Natural Hazards’ bundle of activity sheets.
This bundle contains a selection of sheets designed to develop children’s atlas and mapping skills as well as their knowledge and understanding of how earthquakes happen, patterns in where earthquakes happen and how they are measured. It also includes a mapping and research activity on locating famous volcanoes around the world revising countries and continents and reinforcing certain tier 3 vocabulary.
There is also a comprehension about Pompeii and a whole lesson related to Pompeii including video links and activity mats.
Save 62% on individual resources with this collection of Roman themed resources.
This bundle includes various activities on the Romans in Britain such as how to investigate artefacts, the spread of the Roman Empire and the legacy of Romans in Britain.
It also contains a whole class assembly on the story of Boudicca’s rebellion.
In addition, there is a whole lesson on Pompeii including video links and activity mats to complete as well as a comprehension on the destruction of Pompeii.
It also includes a cross curricular lesson on the theme of slavery linking this to the KS2 RE unit on Judaism and to British Values and the fundamental importance of individual liberty.
This is a 4 week narrative unit based on the classic novel ‘Stig of the Dump’ by Clive King.
It includes daily plans and builds up to the children writing their own short story in the final week by creating their own dilemma for Stig and Barney. It includes some SPAG activities (revision of nouns/adjectives/adverbs/inverted commas; fronted adverbials) and certain resources or notes and suggestions for other resources needed.
This slideshow is for use in a staff meeting or other training session and provides guidance for the understanding of SPAG for teachers and TAs. It includes clear explanations and examples as well as exercises and links to useful websites for further information. It can be used over more than one session, or to focus on one particular aspect of grammar or punctuation. This might be a useful reference for NQTS , or teachers new to upper KS2 especially teachers who are new to Y6.
