Teaching Alive is a project that provides on-line teaching resources to promote creativity and improve children’s achievement in primary school. We provide lessons consisting of:
• animations to make contexts and teaching come alive;
• detailed teaching plans, disseminating effective teaching methods; and
• presentations, teaching support materials and differentiated activities.
We use themes that are based on children’s interests and that integrate preparation for national assessment.

This is a fitness lesson in a unit based on travelling to Mars. In this lesson, we will be introducing exercise techniques and the rules of a chosen circuit training organisation. There is a choice of a 9 station, 12 station or custom station (a choice from 21 stations) set-up with a record card to note achievements and set targets. A plenary provides a choice of 12 stretches, again with technique support, with muscle identification.
Support is provided in terms of organisation, equipment, assessment and techniques. Video links also provide support to model exercises and stretches.
This lesson runs alongside a Maths unit where children create their own diary on Mars to document mathematical findings and a Literacy unit where they write their own non-chronological report on Mars.
This unit is aimed at children at an age 9-11 level (Year 5 & 6 in England and Wales).
The unit’s context revolves around a mission to Mars. Pre-lesson preparation is provided with three animations from an astronaut’s first-person point of view as he or she travels and lands on Mars, making the lesson come alive.
PowerPoints provide structure, modelling, examples and explanation.
There is a lesson plan which includes:
suggested links to curriculums;
notes to provide background information;
pre-lesson organisational preparation;
optional pre lesson preparation;
starter, main, groups and plenary sections with suggested timings (please change depending on your class);
sections of the lesson are linked to Blooms taxonomy;
Talk time suggestions;
PowerPoint presentations to support teaching;
differentiated group activities;
consideration of, and reference to, different learning styles;
pictures and actions provided for key terms; and
independent activities that are planned to aim to allow the teacher to support or extend an assessment group within the lesson
Plans and PowerPoints are detailed and thorough to provide teaching structure, if needed, for the whole, or parts, of the lesson. An alternative streamlined PowerPoint is also provided.
