This is a pack I created to support the balance and motion unit. The children went on a trip to a park so that they could use a slide, swing and see-saw to investigate forces. There are also additional activities included such as designing a front cover and a word search. This could easily be used in school provided the equipment was available and although I used this with Grade 1 (who were an extremely able class) this could be used up to Year 4. A great resource!!

Example comments for the end of year reports in Grade/Year 1 - enjoy giving your brain a break!

A notebook for use in teeth and eating unit.

A worksheet consisting of a range of multiplication sums which require different mental strategies in order to solve. Strategies include inverse, multiplying by 10, partitioning and compensation. A resource that was used for higher ability independent math work in Year 3. Could be used for focused group teaching or lower abilities in Years 4 and up. This could also be given as pre or post unit assessments.

This worksheet supports rounding for Year 3/4. There are a variety of questions including using a numberline, which get progressively more challenging. There are 2 pages to the resource, the 2nd displayed is actually the first sheet. The resource can be used for pre/post unit assessment, independent work or teacher led group work. This would also work well as homework.

An assessment that covers various areas of learning including: number sequencing, fractions, addition, subtraction and time. I used these assessments as a starting point to help me identify general and individual areas of strength and for development. Suitable for Year 1/2

A fun resource to use when teaching about multiples. Children use their knowledge of multiples to join the dots and reveal the picture! Great for Year 2 up

This resource was used as a cross curricular activity during a 'You are what you eat' topic. The children were given pictures of different animals each with it's own price tag (to be added by CT depending on group). Children had to create a display window for their pet shop by adding the prices and subtracting from their given budget, in order to find the change. Children then stuck down their animal pictures on the shopfront display. Resource includes an extension sheet, shop display sheets and animal pictures. I used this with Year 3 but could be used across the primary age, as budgets and prices can be adapted.

2 differentiated informal letters for the children to cut out, sort and stick into the correct format. Great revision or initial assessment of understanding.

This resource includes 3 differentiated activities. The children are given sentences/pieces of information, and pictures of different animal types. They should work to sort the text and pictures into 3 groups (carnivores, herbivores, omnivores) based on the information they read and see. The children then share how they have sorted in class and class can discuss differences and similarities in the ways they have sorted. This activity worked really well as a group activity but could also work as a paired activity. I used this as a warm up activity for one of my whole class sessions.

Here are some sample end of year report comments to be used with a year 3 class (could be easily adapted up or down). The comments cover reading, writing, speaking and listening and are differentiated. Enjoy resting your brain!
