Seven lessons - flip-chart and resources included and all planned from scratch. Includes life cycles of interesting and exotic animals around the world (e.g. the casswary, spiny stick insect and dugong) as well as local species: Lesson 1: To identify the male and female flower parts and describe their function in the sexual reproduction of flowering plants Lesson 2: LO: To understand and define the term asexual asexual reproduction and to describe the methods of asexual reproduction in some plants (bulbs, tubers and runners). Lesson 3: To describe the main stages in the life cycles of some mammals. Lesson 4: To explore vegetative propogation by attempting to grow new clones of parent plants using root, stem and leaf cuttings (including experiment). Lessson 5: LO: To describe the life cycle of birds and identify some differences in the ways different species of raise their chicks. Lesson 6: To describe the life cycles of some insects Lesson 7: To describe the life cycles of amphibians and the process of complete metamorphosis. Optional: Old level 5 SATs paper: The dragonfly reading comprehension (poem linked to metamorphosis).

I designed these differentiated worksheets and supporting flip-chart after teaching the four operations in detail to a Year 6 class. The resources were made to encourage children to think more deeply about the language of mathematics and the order of operations prior to solving and jumping head first into calculating. The lesson includes plentiful opportunities for reasoning (e.g. through prove right/wrong questions) as well as supporting visuals such as bar models and part-part-wholes. The supporting worksheets are differentiated two-ways and easily adaptable.

After teaching these objectives in isolation, I made these resources to prepare Year 6 for challenging SATs questions where there need to decide whether to find a fraction of an amount, or whether to find the whole from a given fraction. Bar modelling is used throughout the flip-chart and worksheets to support the children with their understanding and working methods. The worksheets have been designed with mastery and reasoning in mind. This is two days of work. Some of the slides on the flip-charts link to the worksheets. You can easily adapt and insert the name of your staff/school in the questions so they are personalised with your class in mind.

Three lessons adapted from others online, with resources, a flip-chart and a final reflection exercise. Suitable for upper key stage two. Touches on the Industrial revolution and reflection throughout - providing a nice History/Maths link.

Entire topic (six/seven lessons) planned and resourced for the Year Earth and Space topic. All the worksheets included are my own. The topic includes Oreo diagrams to represent the phases of the moon, line graph and investigative work to explore night and day and ends with a nice piece of art inspired by images I found online. My class adored this topic, so I hope yours do too.
