As a SENCo I found this particually useful to map out the provision we offer our pupils at my current school.
The web is broken into 6 sections of learning:
Individualised Support
Indentification of needs
Quality First Teaching
Extra Curricular Provision
Interventions
Communication
The provision we the provide is colour coded. This is great for parents and visitors to our website to get a clear overview of provision.
This has been created on PowerPoint and is therefore editable.
I have taken the original Pirate game from Mr Collins’ Maths Resources (I hope he doesn’t mind) and edited it for World Book Week. The rules are the same. I have just changed the symbols.

Ourselves: Who am I?
Domestic Church- Family
I have made a Smart Notebook for each Learning Focus for this unit.
Please feel free to change it to match your needs.
I have made this based on other free PowerPoints on the internet. If those creators have any problems, please contact me.
I have made 7 quick lesson starters which encourage the children to think about the purpose of writing and see the links between poetry and song lyrics.
Great for getting Year 5 and 6 to think first thing!
Each slide contains:
lyrics/poetry verse
new vocabulary in purple
points to discuss based on inference underlined
question prompts on each page
Currently, this file consists of 7 short English starters for the new half term but I will add more to this document as I create them.
A whole school pathway for Maths in Primary school following a child’s journey from EYFS to Secondary School. This pathway is linked directly to the White Rose material.
This is a great visual tool for Govenors and OFSTED to give a brief but thorough overview of your curriculum.

A whole school pathway for History in Primary school following a child’s journey from EYFS to Secondary School. I have included key events, dates, links to the national curriculum and skill coverage across each key stage.

A whole school pathway for Art in Primary school following a child’s journey from EYFS to Secondary School. I have been Art Lead for almost 3 years and I have included artists, dates, links to the national curriculum and skill coverage across each key stage. This is a great visual tool for Govenors and OFSTED to give a brief but thorough overview of your curriculum.
My school works on a 2 year cycle but this could be adapted to say LKS2A is Year 3 and LKS2B is Year 4.

I have designed a whole speadsheet covering the KPIs or Assessment Criteria for Maths from EYFS to Year 6.
I have included code to make assessment and monitoring is easy.
When the strand is taught double click the KPI/ Assessment cell once to turn the cell red if the child had struggled, Double Click twice to turn in amber if they have some understanding and double click three times to show the child is secure.
As Design and Technology Subject Lead, I have created this glossary of progressive terminology/ extended vocabulary list to ensure that the children in my school have a broad range of vocabulary that could be used across the curriculum. Somme vocabulary is cross-curricular and will support teaching alongside the new OFSTED framework. I began with Year 1 and, based on National Curriculum progression documents, I compiled a list of vocabulary that the children should see, hear and be encouraged to use. I have added new vocabulary to deepen the children’s understanding and broaden their vocabulary in each year group. This can be seen in green.
It have separated the vocabulary into the seven areas of DT:
• Design
• Structure
• Mechanism
• Electrical Control
• Materials
• Food Technology
• Evaluation
This list can be used by:
Subject Leaders as part of progression documents and curriculum for the school.
Teachers as a planning scaffold and an assessment tool to ensure children have a broad art curriculum.
Teachers to deepen their subject knowledge.
Teachers and subject leaders to promote high standards in vocabulary across the curriculum.
To ensure Art is linked to English and reading where possible.
Pupils may find this resource useful as a check list in their sketchbooks at the beginning of each topic.
My school have used this grid this year and we have noticed a great improvement in the children’s understanding of art vocabulary in their speech and through their writing in English.

STEM
Science: Working Scientifically
This is a great lesson as part of a STEM project, a Science topic or as a stand alone lesson. Designed to show the difference between warm blooded and cold blooded animals, this lesson allows children to predict, conduct and review and experiment independently. This lesson is engaging based around Dinosaurs and requires a thermometer or data logger and two (different size) bottles filled with warm water.
Key Stage 1 National Curriculum Criteria and statutory Requirements.
By asking simple questions and recognising that they can be answered in different ways
observing closely, using simple equipment
performing simple tests
identifying and classifying
using their observations and ideas to suggest answers to questions
gathering and recording data to help in answering questions.
‘Working scientifically’ is described separately in the programme of study, but must always
be taught through and clearly related to the teaching of substantive science content in the
programme of study.

I have compiled the list of National Curriculum Spellings for Years 5 and 6 and created a bank of short spelling sessions. This resource is designed to encourage children to understand the origin of spellings and help create meaning for spelling sessions.
**Included **
• Each spelling has at least two slides/pages
• I have defined meaning.
• Explored and used the etymology
• Fun facts of spelling to make the words more memorable.
• Most spellings are accompanied by a short task.
This is Term 1
I have broken them down into terms which should ensure that the word list is covered over the year. The resource is alphabetical and covers spellings A-C. I have created this resource in PDF and Activ Inspire Format.

As a foundation subject lead I created this glossary of art terminology/ extended vocabulary list to ensure that the children in my school had a broad range of vocabulary that could be used across the curriculum. I began with Year 1 and, based on National Curriculum progression documents, I compiled a list of vocabulary that the children should see, hear and be encouraged to use. I have added new vocabulary to deepen the children’s understanding and broaden their vocabulary for each year group. The vocabulary lists are broken into Key Stage 1 and 2 and are progressive showing high frequency words, sight words, vocabulary from the national curriculum and where appropriate, the year group spelling lists. These features are colour coded within the document.
This list can be used by:
Subject Leaders as part of progression documents and curriculum for the school.
Teachers as a planning scaffold and an assessment tool to ensure children have a broad Geography curriculum.
Teachers to deepen their subject knowledge.
Teachers and subject leaders to promote high standards in vocabulary across the curriculum.
To ensure Geography is linked to English and reading where possible.
Pupils may find this resource useful as a check list in their sketchbooks at the beginning of each topic.

I have compiled a bank of review and plenary activities. The resources here are editable and are a great resource to have on your memory stick.
Reviews are a fantastic way to check children’s understanding and consolidate learning. Many of the activities in this resource encourage children to use their imagination and work in pairs to share learning and deepen their thinking.
Ideal for:
Student Teachers
NQTs
Observations
Supply Teacher
Experience Teachers who would like easy access to their plenary activities.
I have created a series of lessons has been designed to increase your pupils’ word processing skills. The can be used during registration time or as stand-alone lessons. One major barrier to learning I encountered when asking children to use Microsoft Word was their lack of experience using Word’s basic functions. I have broken the key elements I believe primary school children should understand down into 6 separate child-led lessons.
Level 1: Colour and font
Level 2: Bullet points
Level 3: Text boxes
Level 4: Images
Level 5: Spelling and grammar check
Level 6: Symbols

I recommend that you first model the activities to the class and then let the children explore.
