A resource used for year 3 children when looking at time. The resource was created to get the children to think about different time intervals. The activity comes with question cards which ask the children to look at the different trains on the time table and work out how long it has taken for the trains to get from the station to the North Pole. The questions range from working out time intervals within and over an hour. The questions are differentiated with some asking the children to identify which train left at a certain time and others to work out the shortest and longest journey. The timetable and tickets are both Polar Express themed.

A lesson which has been differentiated three ways to teach year 1 children about symmetry. The pack includes a powerpoint, a plan, three different differentiated activities and next steps for the year 1 children to complete.

A range of different resources created to get year 3 children to write persuasively. Resources include starters, main group activities and a powerpoint. Gets children thinking about what a good advert looks like and what techniques we can use in persuasive writing. The overall aim of the unit of work was to be able to sell products to ‘dragons den’. The children were asked to design their own tea and to persuade the rest of the class to buy it. This can be linked to DT as the children then can design and make their product.

A whole lesson on teaching money to year 1. The starter gets the children to match the coins to their value which is one of the NC objectives. There are then a few examples of coins in a purse on the board. This gets the children thinking about how to add different coins and how to write this as a number sentence. After the whole class input the children have their own purses in their books. This activity is differentiated with LA children working with 1p’s and 2p’s. MA are using coins up to 10p and HA children are working with coins up to 50p. The pack also comes with next steps stickers to be used when marking or when moving the children on in the lesson.

The first lesson for block 1 Spring 1 following the White Rose scheme. Due to the aility levels in my class the first lesson comprises of a warm up where ‘Beaky’ has jumbled up the numerals and words counting to 20 and the children have to move them around so that they are correct. I have then focused the first lesson solely on counting by adding on using the pictures for ‘first’, ‘then’ and ‘now’. This is the only part of the varied fluency included in this pack. The activities are differentiated. LA are to just fill in the sentences using the pictures with colour coordinated words. MA have higher numbers and have to complete the the ‘now’ picture (and in my class will have support) and HA are to complete independently without the colour coordinated words as a clue. I have then included two reasoning questions. I know that there are often problems when opening up a publisher document so I have also included the PDF. I hope it saves you time!

A week long flipchart and resources to be used as a whole class read for year 1 based on the book ‘Where the wild things are’. Covers the domains- inference, sequencing, retrieval, prediction, vocabulary. Only open if you have publisher and activinspire otherwise it wont work. Activities are differentiated.

A resource used when learning how to write invitations in my year 1 class. All resources are linked to our Peter Pan theme. For the first lesson we looked at what needs to be included in an invitation and the children investigated existing party invitations and then wrote notes on what they were going to include in their own. The following day the children used the reminder sheet to help them to turn their notes into a proper invitation. This pack contains a lesson plan and powerpoints for the two days as well as writing frames and help sheets.

A range of different resources to be used when teaching division to year 3. I linked the learning to the Ice Bear topic and as a result the children were sharing and grouping using the Eskimos and sleds as well as 'snow balls'. This resource pack contains pictures as well as lesson ideas and word problems for both grouping and sharing. I have also included a 'be the teacher' starter activity where the children have to find and fix the mistakes.

An active inspire flipchart and differentiated activities accompany whole class guided for year 1 based around the story ‘Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book’. The pack comes with differentiated extracts from the story as well as differentiated follow up activities. All are linked to the VIPERS and reading domains. This will only work if you have active inspire downloaded as the presentation is on a flipchart NOT powerpoint.

A resource used when teaching a year 1 class about adjectives. Contains a powerpoint with two pictures of an icy setting to describe, a sound clip to be played when the children are thinking about what they may hear in this setting, a thermometer picture to use as a prompt when thinking about how cold it may be there. I used the resource alongside fake snow and fans in boxes. There are senses spinners for lower ability children as a prompt to get them thinking about using the 5 senses to describe the setting. There are also a range of snowflakes. Blank snowflakes for children to write their own adjectives on to share with the class and others with a range of different adjectives on for LA children to decide which ones would be well chosen and which wouldn't. They are then to match the well chosen adjectives to the picture.

Two week’s worth of resources for whole class reading for year 2 based on ‘The Bear and the Piano’. Covers all reading domains. Activinspire and publisher needed to use the files. All lessons are differentiated at least twice.

A plan and resources following the new RE curriculum for year 1 on celebrations. The pack contains a six week plan following the new national curriculum guidelines. The plan looks at celebrations- the celebrations the children may have been to, achievements, Jewish Passover, Eid, Christian wedding ceremonies and special places.

A presentation and activity for working out the new time. Comes with a starter recap and a problem for the children to solve altogether. Main teaching includes differentiated activities for children to complete. LA activity working out what time it will be once an hour is added to o'clock, MA working out the time once an hour is added to o'clock and half past and HA activity adding increments of 5 minutes to find the new time. Children are to work out the new times and draw the hands on the clock to show these times.

A resource created to teach year 1 children about handling data and creating tally charts. Children were told that we are going on a trip to the jungle and that in their packs there were some animals that needed to be released back into the wild. The first activity was to sort the animals (this was the whole session for my LA children), they then used the animal pictures to complete the tally chart (a discussion happened here to recap what a tally chart is and what to do when we count five of something). Afterwards the children were to answer the questions about their tally chart. As a next step or reasoning question the children were asked to write their own question to ask someone about the tally chart, there was a frame to support children in this.

A lesson created to teach children about adding different amounts of money. The children were to choose toppings from the pancake shop and to add them and work out how much money it would cost them to buy the pancake. LA children are to add two different toppings, MA to add 3 toppings (adding three one-digit numbers is part of the curriculum) and HA children are to work out change. This pack contains a lesson plan, differentiated activities and a powerpoint presentation.
