A fully planned and resourced Year 6 Science unit covering Light and Electricity, delivered through ActivInspire flipcharts and supported by detailed lesson planning, pupil resources, and inclusive SEND/EAL scaffolds. This unit follows an enquiry-based learning approach, encouraging pupils to predict, test, observe and explain, while building secure scientific understanding and vocabulary. Every lesson is clearly structured with learning objectives, success criteria, key vocabulary, enquiry questions, practical investigations, and plenaries, making it ideal for confident delivery with minimal preparation. What’s included: ActivInspire flipcharts for every lesson (clear visuals, modelling and questioning) Detailed lesson planning for Light and Electricity Science Planning Practical investigations (circuits, batteries, components, reflection, shadows) Clear progression across sessions, revisiting and building knowledge step by step SEND scaffolds including simplified instructions, visual supports and sentence stems EAL resources, including English–Turkish vocabulary and sentence support Scientific vocabulary lists embedded in each lesson Assessment opportunities through discussion, diagrams, tables and explanations Topics covered: Building and testing simple electrical circuits Circuit symbols and scientific drawings How batteries and components affect circuits How light travels and how we see Reflection and mirrors How different surfaces reflect light How shadows are formed and how they change Ideal for: Year 6 teachers using ActivInspire Mixed-ability classes SEND and EAL learners Small-group intervention ECTs and non-specialist teachers Reducing planning time without reducing quality This resource is classroom-ready, inclusive, and carefully sequenced, while fully meeting Upper KS2 National Curriculum expectations for Science.

A comprehensive, enquiry-based Year 6 Science unit covering Evolution and Inheritance, carefully planned across 8 progressive lessons. This unit develops pupils’ scientific understanding while embedding key skills such as questioning, observing patterns, using evidence, and evaluating ideas. Each lesson is clearly structured with learning objectives, success criteria, key vocabulary, enquiry questions, practical activities, differentiation, mini-writing opportunities, and plenaries, making it ideal for confident, consistent delivery across a half term. Topics covered: Inheritance and how characteristics are passed on Variation within species Adaptations and survival in different environments Natural selection and evolution over time Fossils as evidence of life in the past Extinction and human impact How scientific ideas change with new evidence Ethical debates around de-extinction Teaching approach: Enquiry-based learning throughout Strong focus on scientific vocabulary and reasoning Regular misconception checks Practical investigations (e.g. finch beak simulation, fossil evidence analysis) Discussion-rich lessons that promote critical thinking and debate Clear links to real-world science and ethical issues Differentiation & inclusion: Differentiation built into every lesson (LA / MA / HA) Visual supports and structured tasks for lower attainers Challenge prompts for higher-attaining pupils SEND scaffolding included Ideal for: Year 6 teachers Subject leaders Enquiry-focused science teaching Mixed-ability classes Reducing planning time while maintaining curriculum depth This unit fully supports Upper KS2 National Curriculum expectations for Evolution and Inheritance, while promoting curiosity, scientific thinking, and meaningful discussion.

A clear, pupil-friendly SPaG revision booklet designed for Year 6 learners who need simple explanations but still want to cover the full SATs grammar, punctuation and language content. This guide breaks down key word classes (determiners, adjectives, nouns, noun phrases, expanded noun phrases, prepositions and prepositional phrases, verbs, modal verbs, adverbs, conjunctions, pronouns, relative clauses and omitted relative pronouns) using step-by-step definitions, SATs tips, and model sentences. The punctuation section includes colons, semi-colons, hyphens, speech punctuation (direct and indirect speech), apostrophes (possession and contractions), and commas (lists, fronted adverbials, parenthesis, subordinate clauses, and clarity). It also includes an easy-to-apply “Pause Trick” to help pupils choose the correct punctuation when reading aloud. Further sections cover clauses (main, subordinate, relative), sentence types, tenses (including progressive and perfect), active vs passive voice, and the subjunctive. There is a dedicated section on Standard vs Non-Standard English with common SATs traps (was/were, did/done, double negatives, me/I) and tick-box style practice. Finally, the booklet includes 10 “Tricky SATs Questions Made Easy” with the full question included and simple, pupil-friendly explanations, focusing on comma meaning, formality, conjunction meaning, and identifying prepositions vs subordinating conjunctions.
