Fronted Adverbial Lesson Observation for KS2

Fronted Adverbial Lesson Observation for KS2

(0)
Don’t know what a fronted adverbial is? Neither did I! I educated myself, designed and made all of the resources you see here. It is a 3 part lesson which gives you all of the resources and planning to teach 3 x 1 hour lessons. One of which I used for my lesson observation and it was rated as outstanding. The presentation is very easy to follow and has been designed to teach itself. The worksheets are clear to understand and allow children of all abilities to have success. However, I recommend adult support with the lowest ability.

Year 6 Algebra - Find pairs of numbers that satisfy an equation with two unknowns.

The teaching pack includes: Easy to understand PowerPoint presentation with whiteboard activity. 2 way differentiated varied fluency questions. 2 way differentiated reasoning and problem solving questions. Planning for 2 lessons Unknown bingo activity game This teaching pack includes everything that you need to complete 2-3 hours worth of lessons for the Year 6 objective ‘Find pairs of numbers that satisfy an equation with two unknowns’. Please feel free to view the video tour of the resource here: https://www.loom.com/share/ed8922af976c452dabf4d9a38cef80ec When designing this teaching pack I ensured that the PowerPoint presentation included up to date teaching methods such as the Singapore bar method. This teaching strategy works very well when teaching this particular objective as it helps children to visualise what they are being asked to do. If you’ve never heard of the Singapore bar model teaching strategy then do not worry as the PowerPoint presentation walks you through every step of the way! I would absolutely love to hear your feedback from this resource, so if you could spare a moment to rate this resource I would very much appreciate it.

Light Sources - Natural and Man Made KS2 Science

(0)
This premium resource includes a helpful and easy to understand powerpoint which explains what a light source is in a way children will understand. The powerpoint also includes a fun activity that all children enjoy guessing and discussing in partners. In addition, the resource includes a cutting and sticking activity that can be put into an exercise book. In the activity the children will need to cut out pictures of man-made or natural light sources. They will then stick them into the correct section of a simple table. To stretch and challenge the learning, I have also included pictures of some common misconceptions regarding light sources such as; diamond ring, cat’s eyes and the moon.

To Give Change KS2 Worksheet

(0)
L.O. How well can I give change by using column subtraction? This resource is bound to keep your children busy for the entire lesson. Very easy to follow. Requires the children to think about the possible combinations so it is more than just a case of subtracting in the column method. The teaching point for the lesson could be to teach your children how to subtract across zero. The lowers should start with the £5.00 note because it requires less zero’s to borrow across. Highers should go onto £10.

This resource package is aimed at upper key stage 2 children but could possibly be used with smarter year 3 and 4 classes. In these resources you have everything you need to teach a full 1 hour lesson on semi-colons and colons. You could choose to separate it into 3 x 20 minutes or 2 x 30 minute lessons. There is a powerpoint which helps you teach the lesson and is written in a language children can understand. In addition you have 3 different worksheets for lower, middle and higher ability.

Year 6 - Relative clauses lesson observation.

(0)
This is a lesson aimed at 7 to 11 year olds and possibly lower ability secondary school. I have uploaded a customizable word document for each of the 3 differentiated worksheets and also the PDF files for an easy print. Please look at the PDF preview for a true reflection of the worksheet quality. You have enough worksheets and information on the presentation to either break this down into 2 x 45 minute lessons or 1 x 90 minute lesson. In this resource you will get a presentation that demonstrates how a relative clause is constructed and then moves on to covering embedded clauses. The worksheets are differentiated 3 ways, higher, middle and lower ability. Highers and middles will write embedded clauses by the end of the lesson and lower will be able to write simple relative clauses.

States of Matter Cut and Stick Activity

(0)
Excellent resource that children of all abilities can access and differentiate by outcome. Before giving this activity to the children, we had already learnt about solids, liquids and gases. We discussed the structure of each. The higher ability children will most probably come up with more interesting, real life examples whereas the lower ability children may need some support thinking of examples. Videos or real life examples would be great to help this.
SPAG homophones and using a dictionary year 6. 2 in 1 lesson.

SPAG homophones and using a dictionary year 6. 2 in 1 lesson.

(0)
This lessen (or should I say lesson) and the resources provided will help your children achieve two objectives from the year 6 curriculum. The first is being able to identify and correctly spell homophones. The second is to be able to use the first 3 letters of a word and dictionary to find the meaning of word. I haven’t included a lesson plan because the presentation included pretty much teaches the lesson for you. Here are some basic notes and a brief run through of what happens in this lesson: Start with a recap of what a dictionary is used for and how it is used. Teach and define what a homophone is using powerpoint presentation. 3 way differentiated worksheets. To complete worksheets, children must use a dictionary to find out the meanings of words that sound the same but mean different things. Extension activity where children convert nonsense passage into a passage that makes sense by choosing the correct homophones.

All my resources include a customizable Microsoft word copy so that you can edit to meet the needs of your students. I have also included PDF files for ease of printing. This resource gives you everything you need to teach fun and engaging differentiated science experiment lesson, teaching your students what refraction is. In this resource you will find a PowerPoint presentation that is an easy to follow, step by step guide on how to complete the experiment. You will also find embedded videos of refraction and that will be very useful in getting your students to understand refraction. The best thing about this experiment; you only need 3 pieces of equipment: a beaker/glass, water and a pencil! After completing this experiment, I have also included videos that should provide next steps and further learning through simple ‘mini experiments’ and a 22 minute video.

Maths Challenge Cards for KS2 - ideal lesson starter

(0)
Here you have 17 challenge cards that can be adapted and edited to suit your age group. They are designed to be completed independently and they are a great way to show evidence of understanding. They have also been designed to against national expectations and targets. I found that these are particularly successful with the ‘competitive boys’ you may have in your class. They are a nice way to jog a child’s memory of perhaps just to use as a lesson starter.

Roman Numerals Problem Solving Time Telling Worksheets

(0)
Two separate activities to be completed as different lessons. The first lesson is a nice introduction to Roman numerals. Much more fun than just recalling the values of each Roman numeral. The 2nd task is more problem solving based. It also requires the children to use their time telling skills.
