I completed my PGCE at The Institute of Education in 2011, staying in London to start my career at a primary school in Hackney. I taught across KS2 in four years, while also co-ordinating Spanish and Science and receiving brilliant CPD training across a range of specialisms. In 2016 I moved to Lancashire, where I have been supply teacher for a range of local schools. I love creating engaging & purposeful resources to bring education to life and to give teachers their weekends back!

Maths - Reading / Telling Time on an Analogue Clock Lesson

(0)
This lesson models to children how to read the time on an analogue clock using the following Success Criteria: * I know how many minutes are in an hour * I know the minutes that each number on a clock face represents * I know when the time is at quarter past / half past / quarter to the hour * I can identify what hour the time is currently in Challenge: I can say times according to the approaching hour (e.g. ten mins to six = 5:50) It is contains a balanced mixture of partner talk questions, teacher modelling and independent activities, along with helpful links to resources to support the objective. It even has a challenge plenary at the end, asking pupils what is wrong with the given analogue time (answer: the small hand is too close to the next hour when the minute hand is only on quarter past). I cannot include worksheets for this lesson as I would be copyrighting other people's resources, but I have included links on one page to analogue clock resources. Or you could just Google it - plenty of free ones come up! Enjoy!

Maths - Understanding Time (Daily Routine)

Maths - Understanding Time (Daily Routine)

(0)
This resource helps children to consider the progression of time chronologically and the duration of different events. The lesson objective is to be able to create a daily routine using time facts Success Criteria: * I can order events chronologically * I can use vocabulary linked to the time of day * I can identify what time activities start and end * I represent times on an analogue clock Challenge: I can state how long activities last The lesson starts with a discussion about what key events would be included in a daily routine, with children thinking of their own personal examples. It then moves on to a teacher model of how time would be considered in a daily routine, from the start and end times to knowing the approximate duration of activities (i.e. they would know that brushing your teeth takes 5 minutes rather than 50 minutes). Children then independently create their own daily routine plan on the worksheet provided, which has been differentiated to challenge different learners. This lesson would suit KS1 and LKS2 classes and is easily adaptable. Enjoy!

Maths: Multiplication and Area (4 lessons)
stephgrimes86stephgrimes86

Maths: Multiplication and Area (4 lessons)

(0)
Through my career I found it easier for children to understand the difference between area and perimeter by linking perimeter with addition practice and area with multiplication practice. Therefore this resource consists of four lessons: Day 1 - Revising multiplication (my lesson focuses on the array method with HA being challenged to try grid method) Day 2 - Understanding 'area' by learning that it is the space inside a 2D shape, it is a form of measure, that area can be found by counting cm squares with appropriate unit of measure in the answer. Day 3 - Linking day 2's learning by introducing the concept of length x width to calculate area, but still using cm square paper to make the transition easily differentiable Day 4 - Calculating area using length x width by being able to identify the length and width of a quadrilateral, showing their calculations linking back to Day 1 and including appropriate unit of measurement in their answer. HA can be challenged with compound shapes. I used this lesson with a mixed ability Year 3 class, but it can be easily adaptable for higher KS1 or KS2. I cannot include downloadable worksheets in the resource pack due to copyright, but I have included small screenshots of the resources I used for different abilities on each task page so you get an idea of appropriate resources for each day. Most are easily findable using a simple search on Google images or good education websites.
Maths: Roman Numerals - Three Lessons

Maths: Roman Numerals - Three Lessons

(0)
When it came to teaching Roman Numerals in Year 5, it was daunting. I didn't know them up to 1000 when the curriculum change came in, never mind having the subject knowledge to teach them to children! And although there are good worksheets and powerpoint presentations out there, I wanted my class to KNOW each of the key symbols so they could apply it to any 4 digit values So I spent a long time making these lessons - especially day one - where I thought of a (slightly cheesy) way of how the children could remember them. BUT IT WORKED! And even I know all the Roman Numerals up to 10,000. So I hope these 3 days worth of lesson presentations help you too!
Science or Maths - Temperature / Thermometers / Room Temperature activity
stephgrimes86stephgrimes86

Science or Maths - Temperature / Thermometers / Room Temperature activity

(0)
This activity would be a good cross-curricular focus for developing Maths and Science skills as it covers a range of success criteria meeting both curriculum skills: * I know what thermometers are used for * I know the unit of measurement for temperature is Celsius * I understand what is meant by ‘room temperature’ * I understand what is meant by ‘boiling temperature’ * I can explain why temperatures might vary within a room * I can read the scales of thermometers to identify temperature It involves placing 4 containers of (boiling water in different parts of a classroom, for children to predict what will happen to each of them, considering possible factors in the room. This helps children to understand room temperature and how it can vary.
Maths - Understanding Time (using flip book animation) Lesson

Maths - Understanding Time (using flip book animation) Lesson

(0)
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!
