Drawing hands in the style of the Iron man

(1)
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 !

Brazil homework task

(0)
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 !

Andrew Goldsworthy - outdoor learning Art

(0)
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

(0)
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

Science and DT car build project for Upper Key Stage 2

(0)
A great resource that my colleague and I completed over a 1/2 term in the afternoon lessons to build a car out of wood and plastic - wheels parts etc we bought off EBay and YPO catalog for the children who completed one between 2 - this used their maths skills, construction skills and science forces skills as they have to build an elastic band powered car that would hold a 1kg weight and travel down the school corridor - It went really well as a project that we ran for 2 different year groups. This would work for early secondary school DT also and is a great cross curricular lesson and activity - any questions do ask away !

Book and character work in this regard - ideal for either a guided reading session or English themed work for a few days - pictures and text all there and activities within the Powerpoint - feel free to use as you wish - my year 5 class loved it and we did a mixture of work within this as necessary ! Enjoy and I hope you find this useful for your teaching !

Stone Age Boy Big write lesson !

(0)
Complete lesson on re telling a section of the Stone Age Boy story with an example we discussed in class - this is then levelled off into yellow blue or red sections and can be differetated accordingly - A great lesson with not that long on the carpet ! I have used this for year 3 and 4 now and each time the lesson has gone really well with the kids producing some great writing following the story ! I hope it is of use to you and can be adapted to suit your class !!

The Iron Man describe further Big Write lesson with example

(0)
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 !!

Galileo science study and English link

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 !

martynxxxxmartynxxxx

Iron Man English and theme resources - Bundle ! Ideal for Years 3 and 4 teaching !

(0)
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

(0)
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 !
