Walk to School Week Conversation Starter

I love to get the students really talking about an issue. I saw another teacher do it and thought that this looks really effective. My Walk to School Week teaching resources are designed to get the students to think about why we should walk to school, what are the alternatives and the benefits and the costs of walking to school using different modes of transport. They are also designed to get students really talking, listening and expressing their own ideas. My teaching resources could be printed out and made into an eye catching, thought provoking display or used as a whole class discussion stimulus. I am now making a new series of resources like this, so that teachers and students can get a lot more out of every lesson.

Story Start Pack - different short stories and ideas to develop into stories.

Want to inspire your students? These pictures form the basic parts of a story to get them thinking. The pictures can be simply mixed up to change the story. The different pictures from the different stories could all be mixed up to create a really interesting mash-up of different stories. A real challenge is to see if a class can create a whole story from all the different images in the presentation!

I have created a conversation lesson on how to achieve your goals. They could be printed out and placed on the wall. They could also be used in a single lesson prior to or during SATs or GCSE revision to help students achieve their fullest potential. Each slide has an idea, a linked picture and a discussion point for the class.

Design a Game 4 Template Boards I have collected 4 different blank board templates - the idea is for children to develop their own board games and their own rules. They then need to teach the rest of the class how to play their game. Lots of talking, discussion and communication skills.
Information Gap 1 - Looking for a Job

Information Gap 1 - Looking for a Job

(0)
Information Gap 1 - Looking for a Job Get the students working in pairs. Give one person of each pair the Student A page and the other the Student B page. There are four different jobs being advertised in the local paper. However, there are ten gaps on each page. Students should ask each other questions to find out the information that is missing from their page, then write it down, asking for spellings as necessary. Encourage them to communicate verbally to get the answers, rather than letting each other look at their pages! When all the students have finished, bring the group back together and ask checking questions to elicit the answers, as well as to find out how much the students have understood about the other material in the adverts.

Paper Bags Visual Story Prompts - Creative Writing Using All Your Senses

(0)
This is a fun creative writing worksheet. The students are simply shown a paper bag with a funny expression on its face. They then need to imagine they are the paper bag and write a story about why it feels like it does. They have to imagine why it is feeling happy, sad, scared etc... using their senses as a cue. What might the bag be seeing, hearing, smelling, touching and tasting to give it the expression it has on its face. This will help the students to become more creative, write more detailed descriptions and organise their work better. This is a perfect way of preparing for the KS1 SATs tests and the KS2 SATs tests. You could look at it directly as a presentation and discuss the different feelings Mr Paper Bag being shown in each of the photos. You could print off and laminate the photos to make an interesting, eye-catching set of story prompts. The students could also take five of the laminated photos and create them into a story . The photos could also be used as prompts for creative writing, factual writing or descriptive writing.
