The objective for this lesson is to understand the measurement of time and comes in two parts. The first gauges children's prior understanding of the following success criteria: * I know how many seconds are in 1 minute * I know how many minutes are in 1 hour * I know how many hours are in 1 day * I know how many days are in a week and year Included is a worksheet for children to complete, with extra challenges on the notebook board for your higher abilities to be extended. In the second part of the lesson I wanted to challenge and extend children's knowledge of time, so I linked in a TED animation about how time is linked to both Maths and Science. It explains the concept of time measurement using flip book animation, which children can relate to. From this, I challenged children to make a short flip book of their own, using one of the two examples modelled in the video. My kids absolutely loved this lesson, and even made longer and more detailed flip books at home afterwards using different time criteria!

This lesson uses brainstorming, questioning, exploration and matching to challenge the objective: To understand that plants make food in their leaves The Success Criteria is: I know the seven life processes I can explain why plants have leaves I know what the leaves of a plant need to make food I can label a diagram to explain this process Included is extensive flip pages helping children to understand the photosynthesis process and lesson activities to display their understanding. This lesson links with others in my resource shop, as a whole topic bundle about Plants.

This lesson uses brainstorming, questioning, exploration and matching to follow the objective: To understand the different parts of plants The Success Criteria is as follows: I can name the main parts of a plant I can label the main parts of a plant I can describe the functions of plant parts Included is a page listing different accessible and engaging activity ideas (as the items I used are copyrighted). This lesson links with others in my resource shop, as a topic bundle about Plants.

This lesson (or two lessons if you want to make it really well!) allows your class to make an engaging and stimulating display about their Plants topic. Included is photographs of the display I completed with my Year 3 class, a flip of different group activities and clip art which can optionally be used.
