Print-making (KS2 Art and Design)
This is a print-making scheme of six-lessons using space as an inspiration (preferably for upper KS2). It covers an introduction to print-making artists and print-making skills (planar, relief and intaglio).
I have created this scheme using skills that I have acquired over the years, training in Print-making throughout my Fine Art degree and teaching Art and Design to KS2 for over 5 years.
This has been a really popular scheme for my pupils, which teaches a variety of print-making skills: mono-printing, screen-printing, relief and collagraph (relief) printing. I’ve taught it within the classroom and an art room. It would be worth investing in screens for the screen printing lesson.
Resource bundle includes: Medium term plan, Lesson plans, Visual Language word mat, Lesson Powerpoint (PDF cursive, PPT and PPT cursive versions available - please note the powerpoints may need slight reformatting depending on your font settings) and accompanying resources/scaffolds. Each lesson includes a starter, modelling for each task, an evalution and an end of the lesson plenary.

Recommended Book of the Week
I’ve collated a range of book recommendations for my Year 5’s to display in my book corner throughout the year. I’m hoping these will act as hooks to engage my pupils and encourage them to read something new!
Within this resource, there are 16 pages of recommendations: each page contains 3 book recommendations (48 recommendations in total) for pupils ranging from 9-12 years old. Each recommendation includes a quote, the book cover and a summary/blurb of the book.
The recommendations are around A6 in size, but could be printed larger. I’ve opted for a green gender-neutral checkerboard design, as I know it’s a design which all pupils will enjoy.
I hope your class are inspired by these as much as mine have been!
please note: I’ve included more books than 1 per week, as I’ve tried to account for books being used within the curriculum

Creative Writing Story Mountain Resource (KS2)
This is a great resource which I’ve used for multiple creative writing tasks, particularly short stories.
It includes the key elements of a story, with prompts and a brief description of what is usually in each.
Once the scaffolding is used, I often encourage my higher attainers to think how they could move away from the scaffold, perhaps using the ending as a beginning for example.
Elements of the story mountain:
Opening
Build Up
The Problem
Resolution
Ending
