These Maths activities were created for a problem solving lesson. They are based on similar questions found in SATs papers. The pack includes 5 differentiated activities which involve the children selecting number cards and rearranging them to create different numbers. They must use logic and reasoning skills and show an understanding of place value. I was very happy with this lesson and the children enjoyed it too. =)

As part of our topic on 'Modern Britain', my Year 3 class created leaflets for tourists explaining some of the things they had learnt about Britain. There are three different leaflets included in this pack. The first is a blank trifold leaflet with lines which my higher ability group used. The second is another trifold leaflet, this time with subheadings given. The third is a simpler template for lower ability children, again with subheadings given.

This worksheet was created for a lesson in which the children were writing a newspaper report about the army helping to defeat the giants at the end of ‘The BFG’ by Roald Dahl. The worksheet is a simplified newspaper template to be used with lower ability groups. They have space to write a short paragraph using the 5Ws as well as a box where they can draw a picture of the event.

This worksheet can be used within an RE topic on Creation Stories. I created a Venn diagram for children to compare the creation stories of the Hindu and Christian religions. Some children will be able to do this without the prompts at the side but I have included them for the lower ability children.

A writing frame designed for writing instructions for making a gingerbread man.

A blank template of the Japanese flag for children to colour in and cut out.

A worksheet designed as part of a 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory&' themed week. Children are asked to work in groups to come up with a script for an advert for a chocolate bar. They can write the script on the worksheet and then act it out.

A template on which children can write a letter from Fern to her Uncle Zuckerman. The second file is for lower ability groups and it has sentence starters already on the sheet to aid children in their writing.

A list of useful vocabulary for children to use when writing stories.

Templates on which children can write a poem about what the BFG can hear. This is a great opportunity to discuss onomatopoeia with the children.

I read 'Aquila' by Ian Norriss with my Year 5 class and they loved it! While looking at explanation texts, I created these templates for the children to explain how they would operate their very own UFO. The children were very creative and loved this lesson.

Differentiated worksheets involving doubling and halving on function machines.

I created this worksheet to be used as part of the Year 3 Science topic 'Rocks and Soils'. Children had to describe each rock using a range of scientific vocabulary which was provided. They then had to think about the properties of each rock and suggest uses for them.

This pack contains a range of Literacy and Maths targets/objectives on yellow and blue stars respectively. I originally created this resource for a 'Reach for the Stars' display for a Year 3 class. The children read the targets and knew what they had to aim for throughout the year.
