Biography and Autobiography

Biography and Autobiography

(85)
This is a powerpoint presentation about the features of biography and autobiography. I am a student teacher and have created this as a starting point in my very first literacy lesson for year 6, to distinguish between the two types of texts. I feel this is a good introductive presentation, or revision aid. We will later be focussing on biographies of Malorie Blackman, hence her photograph featuring on the opening page. Please feel free to add any comments about this resource as it is my first attempt and any feedback is greatly appreicated.

Gender Stereotypes

This is a powerpoint of images designed as a stimulus for discussion within the classroom. It questions gender stereotypes and roles in the workplace/society. Some questions included to guide teachers/group discussion. This has been designed for an UKS2 class but could also be used with older children as it contains some thought provoking slides.

Mean and Mode bingo

(15)
This is a fun and interactive way to help children find the mean/mode of sets of data.I would like to stress that this is NOT my original work and was kindly uploaded from this website.However, I have edited this for use in my classroom. This version focuses on the mean and mode as it will be used in an introductory lesson with lower ability y6. The bingo cards look fantastic when laminated, but again these are not my own work. I would appreciate any feedback you may have. This is my first attempt at a maths lesson, so feedback's greatly appreciated :-) NB The Second ppt is a longer version

Finding percentages of money amounts

This worksheet is designed for use with upper ks2. I have an extension group but it is adaptable. Images of the latest craze toys to capture their interest. Children cut and stick images into their books and calculate/record the reduced price of each toy, showing their method. Children could also use this as a calculator exercise. Please leave constructive feedback as I am NQT, many thanks!

Image prompts for discussion to be used as part of planning a balanced argument about whether the rainforest should be saved, including reasons for why it is destroyed by humans. Mostly images without text to get children thinking, but there is a slide of facts and 2 links to useful websites. Feedback appreciated thank you!

WW2 declared Newspaper report Goodnight Mr Tom

A model of a newspaper headline announcing the declaration of WWII following Neville Chamberlain's wireless broadcast and considering the viewpoints of several characters from Goodnight Mr Tom.You could look at this article and highlight the key techniques used (WAGOLL) before guided or independent writing. Please note that not all historical content may be entirely factual in this text - I have used a lot of this information from guided writing/drama with my y6 pupils and have made this resource to uplevel their work.

Children required to colour different amounts on measuring jugs. Of course practical work is better for instilling the notion of capacity, but this can be a good visual representation of varying amounts.
