Set of resources to support the use of the song ‘Be a Man’ from Mulan the popular Disney film for use in a Poetry topic.
The verse can be used to identify number of syllables in poetry and the children can then invent their own similes to fit!
I have included some additional worksheets and ideas to help with this. (Obviously work some before.)
To identify syllabic patterns after initial work in this area I have always found this useful. Its a fantastic song and very catchy, in the past I have also had children invent their own song and perform in assembly with great success!
I have included the actual clip featuring this music, as a very short edited video section but do not claim to own the rights to this.
I have included a weekly / unit plan here as an extra with this lesson included, please see my other resource ‘Poems that Create Similes & Metaphors’ for more.
A basic Apple Keynote giving tips on how to edit stories.
This will also work on iPad. This was originally made for a year 3/4 class but can easily be adapted for different age groups.
Eg.
Check it makes sense
Check the spelling
Check the punctuation
Minimise repeated words
Improve words where you can (have you used all senses?)
PART ONE of TWO
As this is the first time I have shared content in this format (of which I prefer) I am offering a 75% price reduction for a very limited time!
Please note this is 15 YEARS worth of Keynotes made on the mac originally for years 3 and 4 although many have been used in older classes and are easily adaptable.
INVALUABLE for anyone with a Mac that uses it for teaching as these are VERY hard to find. (Why I had to make them as I much prefer Keynote.) These took many many hours to make individually.
Many incorporate videos and animations within them and some have been used to achieve outstanding observations.
For a MacBook / Apple user these are fantastic and many should work on iPad too with Keynote. (Although one or two of the animations may be different and I can't 100% promise all will be formatted perfectly from experience.)
Keynotes ages 7-10 - A Massive collection of presentations I have made.
Most are self explanatory but have written a few notes of description for some them below to help. Will save Apple users absolutely tonnes of time as I myself use many of these when I go into schools. You really are getting a lot here believe me.
Please note these will NOT work on windows computers (PowerPoint) without conversion although an excellent site to convert these files is https://cloudconvert.com/key-to-ppt
I have included this particular resource mainly for Apple users.
Specially selected and organised original Powerpoint (and Keynote / ipad / mac versions) of riddles and problems to make pupils think about things creatively, many completely original.
A great thing to start or finish the day with on the whiteboard, organised into powerpoints for you.
For example…
(Morning activities)
‘How many countries in the world can you think of?’
(Lateral thinking)
Why is it better to have round manhole covers than square ones?
Answer: Round covers cannot be dropped or fall down a manhole, unlike square ones.
I hope you enjoy using these with your class.
Lots of comprehension based materials on Back to the Future
Some based on ‘Newspaper Articles’ written.
I’ve added lots of additional materials to match.
In the UK this is in my top 5 resources, highly rated!
