A range of times table mastery check documents. Each one contains 10 questions that check children's understanding of the a times table through more complex methods than just giving them a times table test. Included are word problems, reasoning questions and showing the relationship between numbers.
Also included are times table builders and an example of how these can be used to then build different answers e.g. 16 x 4 from the 4 x builder.

A complete writing unit for teaching explanation texts through writing one about the digestive system. It has been created with lower KS2 in mind but is easily adaptable.
Each ‘lesson’ is broken into chunks of learning rather than directly being a one hour lesson. This means some of the lessons may take more than an hour and be completed over a sequence of lessons instead, with the focus being on the learning and activities within this rather than ‘rushing’ through in an hour. Altogether, there is approximately two weeks worth of lessons, with slightly longer depending on how long drafting, redrafting and publishing take.
The unit includes lessons on:
Features of explanation texts
Cohesive devices
Research
Creating simple sentences
Drafting and redrafting
Publishing
All lesson PowerPoints with notes are included as well as a model text, a summary organiser about the digestive system, activity sheets and a explanation text summary sheet.
A twenty four lesson unit of work based on fractions for Year 6. Included are all the required PowerPoints that also include arithmetic starters. Each lesson/ double lesson has a worksheet activity that includes the answers as well as challenge activities for those that are confident to deepen their understanding.
Lesson 1 and 2 - Finding fractions of amounts
Lesson 3 and 4 - Finding the whole from a fraction of an amount
Lesson 5 and 6 - Simplifying fractions
Lesson 7 - Comparing by numerators
Lesson 8 and 9 - Comparing by denominators
Lesson 10 and 11 - Adding and subtracting fractions with common multiple denominators
Lesson 12, 13 and 14 - Adding and subtracting fractions with non-common multiple denominators
Lesson 15 and 16 - Adding mixed number fractions
Lesson 17 and 18 - Subtracting mixed number fractions

A sequence of lessons on light for Year 6 that includes an investigation. Included are the lesson presentations, any print outs required, a KWL grid to refer back to, a vocabulary triangle and a knowledge organiser.
A double lesson that focuses on being able to find fractions of amounts. Included is a PowerPoint for the lesson that includes an arithmetic starter as well as an activity with answers and four challenge activities for those that are confident.
A lesson that focuses on natural hazards, particularly in being able to identify the differences between climatic and tectonic hazards.
The lesson works well as an introductory lesson in teaching pupils about different natural hazards and understanding why these occur. There is everything needed to be able to deliver the lesson including the lesson PowerPoint, starter activity, three activities and support sheets.
The lesson starts with a starter focusing on the equator and tropics to prompt understanding of climate and weather conditions. This then moves on to identifying key vocabulary and introducing the idea of natural hazards.
Activity One then requires pupils to sort examples of natural hazards into climatic and tectonic. There is a cut and stick version of this with images or a separate version using written text for those looking to save on time and printing.
This then moves on to the second activity focusing on being able to identify similarities and differences between climatic and tectonic hazards. This is presented as a Venn diagram with a support sheet to help with ideas. However, there is also an alternative version of the activity should teachers wish to use it, with a reduced outcome through limited boxes available.
This is then followed up by more discussion and a review task to check understanding at the end of the lesson.
Additionally, a support sheet is provided with the key vocabulary, information and images from the PowerPoint all provided on one page for pupils to refer back to.
A fully resourced lesson focusing on numbers up to 1,000,000, based on the Year 6 WRM objective as part of the place value unit.
Included is a lesson PowerPoint which includes a starter, key vocabulary and opportunities for modelling, discussion and guided practice. There are notes included to point out on some of the slides what the focus of the question is and potential misconception it is trying to address.
This is followed by an independent activity that links to the lesson, giving children the opportunity to apply their learning, including identifying the value of numbers, identifying the value of digits and being able to partition numbers. This is followed up with four problem solving and reasoning style questions to deepen understanding, with answers included for all.
For children who need additional support or scaffolding, there are also additional practice sheets to begin with that build up to trying to get children all working on the same main activity. These include numbers to 100,000, to 10,000 and to 1,000 with a similar nature across the sheets to support pupils in being able to get to the main activity.
There are also place value grids included to support pupils.
Attached are moderation grids for the interim statements (recently released 2016-2017) for Writing, Science and Maths. This includes working below and greater depth for writing and can be used as a simple tick box exercise. Whilst they include many potential tick boxes, these are in no way how many pieces of evidence you require.
An activity for children to do at the start of a new school year/ for class swap days. Get children to draw themselves, describe themselves, identify their favourite subjects and activities outside of school as well as getting children to set three targets (for in or out of school) and think of one thing new they would like to do in the next year.
