This is a lesson which introduces children to working out subtraction by finding the difference between the two 2-digit numbers numbers by using a number line.

This focuses on the non-Jews who helped to save Jewish people in the war. These are some of the unsung heroes of World War II who stood up for what was right. The first lesson looks at the concept of hiding and why people hid. The second lesson looks at heroes who are not well known but who saved many Jewish men, women and children. PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK.

Maths Money Maze Using and Applying KS2

This is a Smart Board resource I have made to go with the activity from the nrich website. PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK! There is a link here to find the other resources/sheets you will need from the website. I have also made a recording sheet and a plenary sheet. The main aim of the lesson is to get the children to record their work as they go along, but they are also practising adding and subtraction skills. I have allowed calculators to be used but this could be made more challenging by not allowing them!

Maths cube challenge make a treasure box + SB KS2

Aimed at level 3 children -Years 3 and 4-When you follow the Smartboard slides you will see that the children are given a real challenge. They have to draw the cube net out themselves. PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK! All you need is to get a piece of squared A4 paper and photocopy it on to card. You also need some pens, stickers and sequins so they can make it special. They can write 'Top secret' and &'keep out&'; on their boxes! Most will need to make a few attempts at it. It is really good for their understanding of nets and 3D shapes.Remind them not to forget the flaps!

Children love to play these types of games. Download the rules to understand the different ways it can be played and to get the clues to read out. This helps them to learn quarters and fifths and some of their equivalent fractions too. It helps them to find the numerator (never under) and the denominator(down). PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK!

Victorians Queen Victoria SB and matching activity

(1)
Use the SB to briefly introduce Queen Victoria. Prior to the lesson sort out a set of photos/pictures for each group with the writing underneath the picture cut out so they do not know which photo and description go to together, Then hand out a set of the pictures and descriptions to each group and see which group can match each picture to its description first. This way they can find out more about her without the teacher telling them everything!

Titanic Smartboard lesson 1 primary source

(0)
This lesson introduces the children to the 'Titanic&' disaster. First it asks them to discuss what they already know, then it looks at &';The Daily Mail' cover from the time and they have to create a list of questions they would ask if they had seen this at the time. Then they have to read it (the newspaper article is available online). I had a copy of the actual paper to photocopy and give out. Tell them they can now find the answers. They will soon realise when reading the article that the information is completely inaccurate and this should create an interesting discussion.

Smartboard to introduce America + quiz + activity

(0)
I am not an American so please forgive me for missing out really important things on here-America is too great to put it all into one Smartboard! I made this to introduce the children to America. It looks briefly at the flag, maps, the president, famous sports people etc. Make up a quiz on some of the information and then play an American word bingo game. Finally set them a challenge to find out the meaning of American words on the computers in pairs. The first pair to find them all has a prize.

6 Philosophy Sessions for years 1-4

(20)
If you have never tried philosophy before these lessons are a good starting point! The children really enjoy these discussions/debates! Based on ideas from Philosophy 4 children everything is explained in the lesson plans. PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK! The children sit in a circle and take turns to discuss what they think the answer to the question is-saying whether they agree or disagree with another child. They improve their listening, speaking and reasoning skills and learn that there is not always one right answer to a question.
