This is not an exact copy of the planning from The Power of Reading. It is inspired by the planning - taking some lessons and elements and combining it with my school’s approach to writing. Minimum of 14 lessons but another edit and improve session and publishing sessions can be added onto the end making this 16 potential sessions. Aimed at LKS2, Year 3 and year 4. Key skills taught in this unit: Exploration and teaching of rich vocabulary around water portraying a character’s emotion through verbs and adverbs Inference skills Present perfect tense/ past tense Inverted commas for speech This unit of work involves: Short bursts of writing involving of personal experiences around water which could be a diary entry but gives freedom of choice, poetry, asking key questions. It also involves building up skills for children to write about an event that happens in the forest to the main character where he sees something scary in the bushes, runs away and then realises it was only a small animal such as a bunny or an owl. This gives the children opportunity to show, not tell emotions of fear, nervousness and relief. The next part of the unit of work allows the main character to return home where Isac sees his Mum. This involves a conversation, applying their inverted commas skills. Here he can tell his Mum what happened in the forest and why he was so scared but then felt relieved because it was only an animal. Planning documents attached. Key worksheets attached and differentiated activities attached. Each lesson begins with a grammar warm up.

Here are Powerpoint slides of four lessons based on the planning from Understanding Christianity. This is aimed at Years 3 and 4. In this unit there is a variety of activities such as creative art activities as well as a writing task. This is ready to download and teach. The learning objectives for each lesson are as follows: Lesson 1: Engage in the story of Creation and Fall Children listen to the story of Creation and go on a mindful walk around the school grounds to look at any nature they can see and appreciate that Christians believe this was created by God. They return and explore the concept of temptation first-hand and then explore the panel images that represent creation and fall from the Understanding Christianity unit. Lesson 2: Enquire into Christian belief that humans cannot get close to God without his help Here children will explore the feelings of Adam, Eve and God when Eve betrayed them. The outcome of this lesson is a diary entry of Eve exploring how she feels. Children will understand the importance of saying sorry and taking responsibility for their actions. Lesson 3: Explore that the bible shows God wants to help people by giving guidelines Children will explore the ten commandments and watch videos of two different types of churches that serve God in different ways. Their task is to create a piece of art based on one of or all of the ten commandments. Examples are included. Lesson 4: Evaluate and express our learning about creation and fall This lesson will consist of children ordering the story of creation as a reminder, completing a quiz either individually or in teams about the creation story. There is then a selection of activities to choose from in two sections: writing or drawing. Included: The Powerpoint with all of the links required inside The quiz for lesson 4 #understandingchristianity #RE #christian #creation #thefall #adamandeve #unit #religion #religiouseducation #God #Bible

Inspired by the Emmanuel Project planning. High quality unit of planning planning that comes with a written plan, Powerpoint and attached resources. This unit of work allows for three pieces of writing as well as practical learning and deep discussion. Lesson 1: Engage with the idea of karma Mostly a practical lesson involving the game Snakes and Ladders and how this links to Hinduism. Lesson 2: Enquire into why karma is important. More snakes and ladders games in an organised why to represent the key concept of Moksha and Samsara(reincarnation). Key videos to watch to aid understanding. Opportunity for asking deep questions about the concept. Lesson 3: Explore Hindu ideas of Karma and Samsara through The Jackal and the Drum. Exploring a hindu story. 2 tasks available: diary entry as the jackal, or a storyboard of the story. Differentiated tasks attached. Lesson 4: Explore ways Hindus encourage good karma through Sewa day. What is Sewa day? Why is this important? Ways in which children could do good deeds. Introduce Mahatma Ghandi and why he is an important Hindu. Complete factfile about Ghandi. Lesson 5: Evaluate the Hindu belief in karma through Hindu daily life. A chance for children to choose how they will represent their learning from this unit.

This unit if work is inspired by the NCETM unit of work for Year 4 - Unit 2 - Numbers to 10,000 Most resources and slides are made by myself but some high quality activities have been clipped from NCETM and White Rose. The objectives covered per lesson are as follows: Know what 1000 is made up of (representations up to 1000) Use knowledge of 1000 to explain and measure conversions Add multiples of 10 Add multiples of 100 Use knowledge of 1000 to add and subtract Compare numbers to 10,000 Identify and estimate numbers on a number line Round to the nearest 1000 Round to the nearest 100 Apply rounding to problems Add and subtract four digits Know how many 25’s and 50’s make 1000 This unit of work cross-teaches many topics in maths and includes a lot of capacity and measure problems. Each lesson follows the lesson slide structure of: Revisit Address misconception Vocabulary Focus Talk Task Guided Practice Deepen Next steps (if it aimed to be a lesson that goes into books, which most are)

This unit of work is based on the planning of ‘Understanding Christianity’.It is the unit called: Salvation - Why do Christians call the day Jesus died as Good Friday? This unit of work is all about Easter. The lessons include a range of activities such as: Listening to stories Writing a diary entry as Mary Magdalene Creating a poster Easter hunt Art work

This Powerpoint essentially contains two lessons on LGBTQ. This Powerpoint starts with definitions of LGBTQ+. It contains information and history of the rainbow flag. It contains the life story of Jin Xing, a transgender Chinese ballet dancer. There is opportunity to see ballet as a dance that requires muscle and strength with the opportunity of creating short ballet routines in groups. At the end of the Powerpoint is a link to a story called Roxy the Racoon by Alice Reeves. There is an activity to complete that requires children to invent their own inclusive character for a children’s book. These lessons were made with Year 4 students in mind but is very open to all ages. It is easily accessible and explains things simply in a way that all children should understand.

Here are high-quality, well-structured maths lessons created by myself as a maths specialist. I have used a variety of resources from NCETM, White Rose, Maths No Problem and other resources available online. Each lesson has a clear structure: Warm up Address Misconceptions Vocabulary Focus Guided Practice Talk Task Deepen Independent Task Next Step This unit of work includes: 1 lesson on plotting coordinates (a rounding up/summarising lesson) 2 lessons on translating shapes 2 lessons on identifying angle types 2 lessons on identifying and creating symmetry Involved are stem sentences, diagnostic questions, reasoning etc. Independent practice slide contains ‘now, next, last’ key words to break down the tasks for SEN learners. Tasks can be copied and pasted from the Powerpoint and printed to stick in their books.

Here are Powerpoint slides of five lessons based on the planning from Understanding Christianity. This is aimed at Year 2. In this unit there is a variety of activities such as creative art activities, Lego activities as well as writing tasks. This is ready to download and teach. The learning objectives for each lesson are as follows: Lesson 1: Engage in the idea that God created the universe. This starts off with the children completing a key word writing activity where they write 5 of the unit’s key words 3 times. The teacher and children then discuss what they know about Creation so far and start writing down some questions they would like to find out. The teacher then goes through the Powerpoint which tells the story of Creation. The activity is to complete a storyboard of the Creation story. This lesson may take 2 sessions of learning. Lesson 2: Explore the big frieze Creation panel Here children will explore the order of the Bible and see that Creation comes first. They will explore the Big Frieze that comes with Understanding Christianity which are large images representing each part of the Bible. Children will explore the Creation image looking at it carefully and seeing what they spot. After this, children will create their own panel image to represent Creation. Place all of the images together to take a picture for display and their books. Lesson 3: Explore that God has a unique relationship with human beings. Building on learning from the last session, children will create their own Lego creations and understand how it feels to have some of it broken. They will learn how God may feel when people don’t look after the Earth. Children will discuss key questions at the end of the lesson. Lesson 4: Understand how Christians look after God’s creation. The class will come up with a brain shower of all the ideas they can think of to look after the Earth. There is a video to watch here to support this lesson. Children will complete a worksheet that asks questions about what Christians believe and how important it is to look after the world. This will include ways children can help look after the Earth. Lesson 5: Evaluation and express my learning on Creation Recap of unit’s learning. Adding what they have learnt as a class to the class Wisdom wall. Key question worksheet to answer the big question of this unit. Included: The Powerpoint with all of the links required inside Worksheet for each lesson Wonder Wall and Wisdom Wall templates for display Clear Now/Next/Last slides included in the Powerpoints Written plan #understandingchristianity #RE #christian #creation #adamandeve #unit #religion #religiouseducation #God #Bible #KS1 #Year2

This unit of work is based off of the NCETM lesson spines and is aimed at Year 4. Some tasks have been taken from White Rose to meet the learning objectives from the NCETM.

PART 1: REVIEW OF FRACTIONS Lesson 1: Identify the whole and the parts Lesson 2: Identify equal and unequal parts Lesson 3: Construct the whole from one part PART 2: FRACTIONS Lesson 1: Write mixed numbers Lesson 2: Add and subtract mixed numbers from a part-whole model Lesson 3: Add and subtract mixed numbers Lesson 4: Label fractions on a number line Lesson 5: Identify how many fractional parts make a whole Lesson 6: Compare and order fractions on a number line Lesson 7: Compare and order fractions Lesson 8: Compare and order fractions with the same numerator Lesson 9: Add fractions with the same denominator Lesson 10: Subtract fractions with the same denominator Lesson 11: Add and subtract fractions Lesson 12: Identify equivalent fractions Lesson 13: Identify equivalent fractions Some of these lessons are intended to be purely practical, working with whiteboards and physical resources/manipulatives. This is stated on the first page of each lesson on the PowerPoint. Lessons that are designed to be in books have tasks that are easily written into books by childen or come with a ‘Fluency, Problem-solving, Reasoning’ sheet to show clear progression. These lessons are provided with a ‘next step’ to move children on even further in their learning. Each PowerPoint follows the structure of: Revisit, Address Misconceptions, Vocabulary, Focus, Guided Practice, Talk Task, Deepen, Independent Practise, Next Steps. #ncetm #year4 #fractions #year4fractions #ks2 #ks2fractions #maths #mathsmastery #diagnosticquestions #stemsentences #mastery #progression #numerator #denominator #mixednumbers

In this unit of work you are downloading 15 lessons. Each lesson comes with a Powerpoint presentation. The number of lessons can be extended if you decide to add a ‘edit and improve’ session and a ‘publishing’ session on produced pieces of work. This unit is inspired by the Power of Reading unit for Hot Like Fire by Valerie Bloom. The book is not needed as all resources needed from the book have been typed up and provided into the download unit. Learning Objectives are as follows: PART 1: Session 1: to annotate a poem (exploration of ‘Grandma, Bandana an’ me’ and ‘How to ask for a hamster’) Session 2: understand language used in a poem (translating the poem ‘De Familiar thing’ from Jamaican dialect to English) Session 3: Understand the meaning behind words (dramatising the poem De Bread Van’) Session 4: Identify the difference between poetry and prose The following sessions follow a writing cycle which allows build-up to a piece of writing/ Session 5: understand and annotate a poem (‘The People Next Door’) Session 6: Identify and use conjunctions Session 7: plan a responding letter (to the invite to dinner that is given to the audience in the poem ‘The people next door’) Session 8, 9 and 10 can be a writing session, editing session and then publishing session. PART 2: This part of the planning unit is exploring and writing with inspiration by Valerie Bloom’s ‘The River’ poem. Session 1: Explore a poem (The River by Valerie Bloom and then 'Life is Like a River by Patricia Walter) Session 2: understand rhyming patterns Session 3: Create my own rhyming poem (inspired by the river poems) Session 4: Create a drama piece PART 3 This part of the planning unit is about creating poems about chocolate, using the learning and inspiration that has been covered int he last two parts. Session 1: Use onomatopoeia and alliteration Session 2: Use rhyming couplets and expanded noun phrases Session 3: Experience chocolate for our poems Session 4: Plan our poems This will then lead onto a writing session, editing and publishing session. #powerofreading #valeriebloom #grandmabandanaandme #theriver #chocolate #jamaica #poetryunit #poetry #ks2 #year3 #year4 #english #writing #writingpoems

Here are 24 lessons based on the book The Nothing To See Here Hotel by Steven Butler. Each lesson up to lesson 15 comes with a Powerpoint and a task. Each task if based off of the reading VIPERS. There are 24 tasks planned to be completed in books and 15 of these tasks come with Powerpoints attached. This was taught to Year 4 but can easily be taken and slightly adapted to Year 3 and 5. Each Powerpoint follows the structure: Talk Task (discussion question based on the book) Vocabulary (introducing new words they may come across in today’s reading) Focus (main reading part with a focus question) Deepen (children asked to explain something) Independent Activity (questions in Guided Reading books based on the VIPERS) Exit Pass (summarising quick question) #guidedreading #stevenbutler #KS2reading #LKS2 #VIPERS #year4 #year3 #year5 #guidedreadingunit #nothingtoseeherehotel #thenothingtoseeherehotel #brighton

You will be downloading a Powerpoint for a series of lessons that cover the following objectives, stated by the NCETM for Year 4: 1 Pupils represent counting in threes as the three times table 2 Pupils explain the relationship between adjacent multiples of three 3 Pupils use knowledge of the three times table to solve problems 4 Pupils represent counting in sixes as the six times table 5 Pupils explain the relationship between adjacent multiples of six 6 Pupils use knowledge of the six times table to solve problems 7 Pupils use known facts from the five times table to solve problems involving the six times table 8 Pupils explain the relationship between multiples of three and multiples of six 9 Pupils use knowledge of the relationships between the three and six times tables to solve problems 10 Pupils represent counting in nines as the nine times table 11 Pupils explain the relationship between adjacent multiples of nine (1) 12 Pupils explain the relationship between adjacent multiples of nine (2) 13 Pupils use known facts from the ten times table to solve problems involving the nine times table 14 Pupils explain the relationship between multiples of three and multiples of nine 15 Pupils explain the relationship between pairs of three and nine times table facts that have the same product (1) 16 Pupils explain the relationship between pairs of three and nine times table facts that have the same product (2) 17 Pupils use the divisibility rules for divisors of three 18 Pupils use the divisibility rules for divisors of six (1) 19 Pupils use the divisibility rules for divisors of six (2) The learning objectives of the lessons included in the unit of work are: 1: Identify the multiplier and multiplicand 2: Count in and multiply by 3 3: Count in and multiply by 6 4: find the relationship between 3 and 6 times tables 5: count in and multiply by 9 6: Find links between the 3, 6 and 9 times table 7: Find links between the 3, 6 and 9 times table 8: Identify numbers divisible by 3, 6 and 9 times table. 9: Multiply 3 digit numbers together. Each lesson follows the structure and has a slide for each step: Revisit Address misconceptions Vocabulary Focus Guided practice Talk task Deepen Independent Practice Next Step Lessons come with accompanying worksheets that are structured into Fluency, Problem-solving and Reasoning tasks. Lessons are also accompanied by next steps which can be stuck into books. The planning is heavily inspired by the NCETM but I have broken the lessons down into my own PowerPoints to ensure the steps taught are very small so all can access. This unit takes on a mastery approach to teaching maths and has been highly effective in my own classroom. Included within the powerpoints are visual representations, small tasks for a ping-pong approach, stem sentences, high-level mathematical vocabulary, now/next/last visuals for SEN learners. #ncetm #unit4 #year4 #mathsmastery =stemsentences #timestables

This is a unit of work that is inspired by the planning from NCETM Year 4 Unit 5. The learning outcomes that the NCETM state are covered in this unit if planning are as follows: 1 Pupils represent counting in sevens as the 7 times table 2 Pupils explain the relationship between adjacent multiples of seven 3 Pupils use their knowledge of the 7 times table to solve problems 4 Pupils identify patterns of odd and even numbers in the times tables 5 Pupils represent a square number 6 Pupils use knowledge of divisibility rules to solve problems In this unit of work the learning objectives are the following: Revise column method for + and - Count in and multiply by 7 Solve 7 times table problems Identify patterns of odd and even numbers in times tables Identify square numbers Find divisibility rules Find divisibility rules Each lesson follows the Powerpoint slide structure of: Revisit Address Misonceptions Vocabulary Focus Guided Practice TalkTask Deepen Independent Practice These lessons follow a mastery approach and have been commented on by OFSTED as being a great tool for great maths teaching. Print-outs are provided. The following elements are mastery teaching are used throughout: stem sentences, generalisations, high-level vocabulary, the slides allow for a ping-pong approach, clear and varied visual representations, opportunities for using resources etc. Worksheets provided follow the structure of: Fluency, Problem-solving and Reasoning to ensure progression. 3 of these lessons are not intended to be in books and do not come with ‘next steps’ but the rest do. This is to allow next steps and progress to be een within books for that lesson.

Created with Year 3 and 4 in mind. This unit comes with a Powerpoint for each lesson and attached resources. I have provided SEN/EAL word banks within this unit if work too. Many of the lessons have simplified and differentiated worksheets and tasks for significant SEN and EAL pupils. There are 13 lessons provided but this can be extended to 19 lessons if you follow my notes below. Week 1: Lesson 1: Illustrate the opening of Iron Man. Lesson 2: Use conjunctions Lesson 3: Use similes Lesson 4: Write from Hogarth’s point of view (when he first sees Iron Man) Lesson 5: Write a diary entry from Hogarth’s point of view Week 2: (structured writing cycle) Lesson 6: Plan a diary entry (More structure for the next diary entry which is about when Hogarth traps Iron Man in a deep hole) Lesson 7: Write a diary entry I then used the rest of this week to finish writing, edit writing and publish writing which took this to a whole week) Week 3: Lesson 8: Collect impressive adjectives to describe the scrapyard Lesson 9: Create a piece of art inspired by the scrapyard ‘Extra SPAG lesson expanded noun phrases’ taught here. Week 4: Lesson 10: Identify and use similes and metaphors Lesson 11:Plan a suspenseful horror poem (WAGOLL provided) Lesson 12: Write a suspenseful horror poem I then used the rest of week 4 to finish writing, edit and improve, and publish.

This unit of work involves 7 lessons that are creative and go into depth in inferring from the text. This is a creative unit if work which requires less writing and more hands-on, illustrative work. It mostly follows the plan from the CPLE Power of Reading planning for this book. It is a good unit of work to do when returning to school from a holiday break. Lesson 1 - Exploring the cover Lesson 2 - Exploring illustrations Lesson 3 - Understanding and emphathising with characters Lesson 4 - Tracking the emotional journey through text and illustration Lesson 5 - Understanding and illustrating characters Lesson 6 - Design the next page in the book Lesson 7 - Infer the characters’ feelings Each lessons comes in its own Powerpoint. The book can be accessed online via Youtube.

Each lesson follows the same maths lesson structure of: Revisit Address Misconceptions Vocabulary Focus Guided Practice Talk Task Deepen Independent Task The ‘Independent Task’ slide has a ‘Now, Next, Last’ visual to promote children’s independence in completing their tasks. The Powepoint is infused with STEM sentences, different representations, practical activities, fluency, and reasoning tasks. The overall structure of the unit is inspired by the NCETM for Year 4 and some questions and representations are taken from White Rose. There is a real mixture of resources used and combined to create a comprehensive unit that can be delivered straight from this download. The lesson objectives are as follows: Identify place value Use column addition with regrouping Use column addition with regrouping twice Use column addition with regrouping twice Decide on mental or written strategies Solve addition problems Identify the minuend and subtrahend Use column subtraction Use column subtraction Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with two exchanges There are multiple lessons on subtraction with one exchange as this is where I have found children struggle the most within the unit. There are multiple lessons with multiple representations and a variety of challenging questions which extend those who do grasp this concept quickly. #mastery #year4 #addition #subtraction #writtenmethod #columnmethod #exchange ##regroup #NCETM #Whiterose #placevalue

Here is 4 weeks worth of lessons based on The Pebble in My Pocket. Some lessons are inspired by the planning sequence from The Power of Reading scheme of work which then builds up comprehension and understanding of the text to lead into writing. Two high quality pieces of writing are planned, modelled, drafted, edited and published including a newspaper report and a persuasive speech on the environment. Learning objectives for each lesson are: 1 - write a poem about a pebble (examining and exploring real pebbles) 2 - create an image based on the text (art inspired by the illustrations) 3 - use rich vocabulary 4 - create a storyboard 5 - identify and use formal language 6 - plan a newspaper report 7 - write a newspaper report 8 - edit and improve (no slides for this as children complete this independently through a checklist) 9 - publishing (no slides provided as this is children publishing their work in their neatest handwriting for display) 10 - respond to illustrations 11 - understand the impact of climate change 12 - explain the impact of climate change 13 - explain the impact of climate change 14 - identify and use emotive language 15 - plan a persuasive speech 16 - write a persuasive speech 17 - edit and improve (no slides for this as children complete this independently through a checklist) 18 - publishing (no slides provided as this is children publishing their work in their neatest handwriting for display)

This unit of work includes a PowerPoint and accompanying worksheets, challenges and activities. Lessons LO’s include: Write mixed numbers Add and subtract mixed numbers from a part-whole model Add and subtract mixed numbers Label fractions on a number line Identify how many fractional parts make a whole Compare and order fractions on a number line Compare ans order fractions Compare and order fractions with the same numerator Add fractions with the same denominator Subtract fractions with the same denominator Add and subtract fractions Identify equivalent fractions Identify equivalent fractions All lessons state whether they are ‘practical’ or ‘in book’ lessons with most being in books. All in book lessons come with ‘Next steps’ which can be printed and glued into books for children to take on an extra challenge or answer in feedback marking. All lessons come with a ‘Now, next, last’ slide included in the PowerPoint for the encouragement on independent learning and SEN learners. All lessons follow the slide structure of: Revisit Address Miconceptions Key vocabulary Focus Guided Practice Deepen Independent Practice Next steps (for ‘in book’ lessons) Some tasks, activities and planning is taken from a mixture of and inspired by White Rose, NCETM and various other planning sites and resources.

8 Lessons based on Sweden, all with activities. Most of these lessons comes with PowerPoints to accompany. There are some lessons where a PowerPoint is necessarily needed so there are teacher comments on the activity sheet on what to do - some require using atlases or Google Maps. The lesson learning objectives are as follows: Design my own Swedish Darla Horse (art based - can be turned into a sequence of lessons easily and an art final product) Compare England and Sweden on a map of the world. Compare Swedish to English houses Locate key landmarks on a map of Sweden Identify Human or Physical Geographical features of Sweden Why do 90% of Sweden live in the south? Answer questions about Sweden Compete in a quiz about Sweden. 2 of the resources are taken and adapted from Twinkl but the rest are my own created for my Year 4 class when we did a Geography unit on Sweden.

The following plan will go through these lessons: I can understand what a myth is and identify their themes and features. I can compare and contrast different versions of a Roman Myth I can use drama to empathise with characters in a story I can explain when to use possessive apostrophes in character descriptions I can understand the general structure of a myth. I can plan the characters and setting for my own myth. I can use adverbials to open my myth. I can use conjunctions in my myth. Lots of fun to introduce the topic of Romans. Made for year 4 but can easily be adapted. Includes smart notes, differentiated resources and activities.
