This ‘Fun Pack’ consists of a range of fun activities designed to entertain your students while reinforcing their knowledge of the poets and poetry of the ‘Power and Conflict’ cluster.
The contents are:
1. Table Quiz – this consists of four 15-question rounds, focusing on the opening lines, closing lines, subject matter and titles of the fifteen poems. The table quiz can be run in two ways – you can either call out the questions and have the students fill in the blank answer grids I’ve provided, or you can distribute the handouts I’ve created for each round. For your convenience, I’ve included full answer sheets. These are also on the presentation so that students can correct their own work if necessary. These sheets can also be used as in-class or homework activities as they facilitate a really close re-reading of the poems.
2. PDF Presentation – includes answers to the sixty questions so that students can correct their own work.
3. Anagrams – this is an A4 handout of anagrams using the poets’ full names. Answers included.
4. Wordsearch – using the poets’ names.
5. Wordsearch – using the poem titles.
6. Crossword A – using the poem titles.
7. Crossword B – using the poets’ names.
8. Teacher’s Instructions.

12 Sample Exam Questions AND a fun pack of activities for revision

Presentations on FOUR different pairs of poems

All kids would love to design their dream bedroom or dream treehouse, so these area and perimeter practice activities will spark their imagination and creativity! Plus, they’ll get plenty of practice at applying concepts of perimeter and area.
There are two different design options – a dream bedroom and a dream treehouse, so you can choose one or the other, or use both. Each design comes with options for perimeter, area, or perimeter and area. Measurements include centimetres and inches, and area also includes square units.
Students choose the items they’d like to add to their dream bedroom or treehouse, draw them on the grid, then measure and record the area and/or perimeter.
Recording sheets are included but these are optional as children can easily write their answers in their workbooks if you prefer.
