Pronouns and enclosed worksheet through this PPT presentation - ideal for year 3,4 and 5 and with included progression - I have used this for a few years and year groups now and they like the entertainment within the slides and engages all the children throughout - enjoy !
Rosa Parks assembly - a great piece to show year groups 5 and 6 and is pretty much stand alone - do read through the powerpoint and look at the information - thought provoking and worked well with older ones as I say
A short powerpoint on drawing hands to then replicate and build upon to draw the Iron man hand escaping from the trap -
I did this with a year 3 class who to be fair stuck at it well and we created some great pieces of work -This would be great to do over 2-3 weeks as I did to support them I would perhaps show them a video on the drawing of hands also - Great lesson though for an afternoon to focus on theme - Art and DT - feel free to use as you see fit for your class whilst studying the Iron man !
A fantastic open ended and creative Brazil homework task ! Great ideas for the children to go off and research and identify aspects of Brazil and then to deliver to the class if they so wish !! This went down really well with my Year 4 class and also they learnt a great deal more than they would in any formal lessons !
This would fit any year group though also ! Enjoy !
Short Andrew Goldsworthy flipchart on Art outside - I used this with a year 3 and year 4 class to inspire them and we ended up making some great pieces of outdoor art following this introduction particularly using the outdoor area - I have also used this for an enrichment activity as a whole school for a morning in the autumn term and went very well in the school grounds ! Do enjoy and adapt to your kids !
Air resistance Science lessons 1 and 2 - ideal stand alone lesson with included slides and activity sheets for the class !
Although this is aimed at Upper Key Stage 2, Year 4 and 3 could easily access the materials also and the activity sheets within this - There is 2 completed good to go stand alone separate lessons here but they could be edited to cover a short 4 or 5 week term as necessary
Complex sentences - A stand alone lesson with included resources to print and a self coloured pleanary for the children to show their understanding of complex sentences and use them in context etc - This is a powerpoint although as I say needs the last slides printing off for the activities - any queries do message and I`ll happily help !
A Stone Age writing to describe lesson; to describe what they see, smell etc through the senses using a picture prompt to help them enclosed in the powerpoint - I then gave each child a picture of this to stick into their books we planned and talked through it using the template idea here and they with the example put this together - The class of year 3 then year 4 really enjoyed it and we got some great writing from this creative writing session- any queries etc do ask !!
Jesse Owens assembly with you tube link within it and additional colouring resources if required for the children - Ideal for key Stage 2 children and it leaves a thought provoking message to all !
Great for that Monday morning when you run out of ideas !!
Another Iron Man resource with this time a modelled piece for the children by me and attached resources in the Powerpoint
I wrote this with little pictures of the Iron Man at the top of the kids books - choice of colours to add which level of work they wish to complete also - this is I believe a typical 80-20 lesson with the kids doing the 80 !!
An Iron man opener resource with written example for the class to read also ! They found this very useful for a lead in ! Plenary attached also to evaluate their own work - do find it of some use !
Transition leaflet for the new term - ideal for key stage 2 however will fit for younger ones to - feel free to edit as you see fit - Great starting point to build from and also have discussion and engagement from for your new class !!
A study on Galileo related to science and Space and discoveries ideas etc - then once the children have seen and watched this they write this up as a study as a class - all were really engaged and would suit years 4 and 5 well - great for something a bit different to !
Maths starter ideal for year 3 and 4 - I found this a great way to engage the class as they came in from break or lunch and is a great settling activity to get them on task
A super way to start the day also !
Grandma warning poem to revise word classes and a fun way to build upon earlier learning with accompanying activity sheet within the PPT a great resource and is appealing to all Year 3,4,5 and 6 children I have worked with this !
A super stand alone activity !
The Iron Man by Ted Hughes English and other topics bundle ! Ideal for any teacher who as either never taught the story before or a more experienced teacher looking for some fresh ideas to teach this - I have also done this with a Year 5 class !
Although this bundle is mainly English and Guided reading related there a couple of topic bits that would certainly fit Geography, Art or DT !
This includes at least 3 Big write lessons that would work either stand alone or a couple of days before to build up to as well as a lesson called Ask it which I did as a lead in for the first lesson on this topic which got the children asking a range of questions about a short piece of opening text which was used in addition to the BBC short animated clip on the Iron man also - this was used to great success ! In addition to leveled comprehension questions that once popped into books show progression over time in both guided reading and English books. I believe this to be a great bundle of resources in order to hit the ground running ! Any queries etc do message away - The kids and SMT did like the structure within these lessons and activties here !
Perseverance assembly - Climbing a mountain
This is an assembly of mine I did to all of Key Stage 2 over 200 children in the hall to talk to them about the idea of Perservance and what this meant and was all about - the opening slide is a video one and I got them to try and guess the title of the assembly as they came in and watched it - the other slides are for points on discussion and information in regard to this and resilience also - this went very well and the children did get the message !
Three slides with information on and a range of activities to complete in comprehensive style on mountain climate - ideal for Upper Key Stage 2 geography in addition to y7/8 also
Ideally for 1 lesson and is good to download print then photocopy - went very well for my class !
A stand alone lesson in regard to the pros and cons of tourism in Tourism - this I did to a Year 6 class on the topic on mountains within a Geography lesson - enclosed video also and for points of discussion with the plenary part of this - if the video doesn`t play I can send you this seperatley -
Basically a stand alone lesson which worked well and could easily fit Key Stage 3 also
A great starting point for teaching time this goes back to the basics and quite quickly you can identify who can tell the time and to what level through this powerpoint - this I have done to years 3,4,5 and 6 and has worked very well - I hope you find the same - starts at Oclock then half past and builds up to increasingley difficult times to tell - any queries etc do be in touch !
