Here are a hand drawn PDF collection of primary classroom resources to include with your History Topics.
Each project is designed to be completed independently in a single lesson with light supervision, using paper, card, glue and colouring materials.
Simply print off the resources on card and the children should be able to navigate through the tasks with the minimum of teacher input.
All activities can be carried out on A4 card, although some work better in the larger size of A3.
Children love doing these tasks - and additional ‘Try one Yourself’ rescources challenge them to create their own designs using the paper engineering skill they have just learned.
Select tasks that re-create famous scenes from history - each one will turn, move, pop up or reveal.
The tasks include: Pop-up Greek Gods
Greek Heroes and Monster Wheels
Pop-up Eruption of Vesuvius
A moving Stephenson’s Rocket
3-D Viking Ship in a Box
Tessellating Egyptian Shapes
3-D Pop-up Benin Mask
Beheading of Mary Queen of Scots!
Simply download the PDF’s and print off a set!
28 pages of ideas to promote drawing and doodling - ideal for KS2 and children of all ages and abilities.
Ideal for one-off art lessons and time fillers, or use for Golden Time rewards and free time.
Download and print the PDF pages to make a 28 page sketchbook.
Simply staple them together and they’re good to go.
Each page has a new idea or technique for the children to experiment with.
The tasks don’t require any teacher input - simple instructions and demonstration sketches are found on each page.
I usually print off a book for each child and let them keep them in their desks or drawers, they also work well as part of a homework pack to send home in the holidays.
