If you are learning about Roman Britain and covering persuasive writing, then these resources could be ideal.
There are 2 letters, differentiated three ways, written between Caractacus and Queen Cartimandua. Not only are they good examples of persuasive letters, but they are historically accurate in detail.
They can be used in several ways: they can be annotated for features and devices, placed in order of quality or used as a model to assist writing.
A new timeline to support the new History Curriculum.
There is a colour coded time line for each of the 6 continents. Each stage of the timeline has a relevant colour image.
Hang up the timeline in your classroom. It enables your children to understand what was happening at similar periods in other parts of the world and compare technical advancements i.e. Stonehenge and the Pyramids!
I have written this book (author and primary school teacher)to accompany the teaching of the Stone Age, and more specifically, the Bronze Age, for children aged 7+. The first 2 chapters, in PDF format, are accompanied by a range of comprehension questions that are ideal for children in Years 3 - 4.
The comprehension questions have been written in a 'test booklet' style and stretch across the range of AF question types. The majority of the questions are retrieval questions but there are also some inference and deduction questions for the more able pupils. Multiple choice questions also feature.
The comprehension booklet can be used in several ways:
* Whole class teaching, using the PDF on the IWB - annotating the text
* Paired work - working through the questions together
* Guided Reading with a small group of children - teaching comprehension skills
An answer booklet is also provided!
