A bundle of resources for the study of the story Friend or Foe by Micheal Morporgo - This is a selection of resources which I have used for the story of the book to Year 5 and 6 - the resources include a video resource to use an introduction to the story and put it in context, various comprehension resources which are leveled for different abilities and as a result of these you will see in the childrens books progress over time in addition to levelled (via coloured criteria ) Big writing work also a short scheme of work to this to show the link between guided reading and English study in regard to the learning objectives at Year 5 and 6.
Although there is only a small amount here I beleive this would be a great start for someone new to the book and the resources here would be an ideal starting point for someone having never done this before - The hook “ask it” lesson was great at stimulating ideas to provide a hook for the children following the included video also - I am sure this would be very useful to any teacher teaching top end students and may even be useful to Year 7-Year 9 teachers ! Any queries do feel free to message !
A bundle of resources ideal for both the Stone Age Boy book and Cave Boy book and Stone Age topic in general
This is includes reading and writing (English and guided reading) resources, differentiated resources and whole lessons via the powerpoints here in addition to levelled comprehensions ideal for years 3 and 4 as I have taught - can be easily adapted to suit your classes !!
This also includes 3 big write stand alone lessons with examples and information which would easily see you a half term or more ! There is also a few other bits I have edited for other DT Geog based or topic based within this. This would be ideal for an NQT to use or a more expereinced teacher looking for somewhere to start with such a new topic ! I do hope this is useful !
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 !
