Learning Objectives: To be able to choose appropriate units to measure length and distance. To be able to read metre sticks, tape measures and rulers marked in cm and mm accurately. To be able to make sensible estimates of length in everyday contexts. To be able to know how many millimetres there are in a centimetre or metre, and how many metres there are in a kilometre. To be able to interpret a reading between two unnumbered divisions on a scale. This lesson was an observation lesson and is based on a round robin of 4 activities (which could be spilt up into 4 lessons) used within a KS2 maths lesson. The activity was differentiated amongst 4 groups. LA-red, MA-blue, HMA-orange, HA-green. Children had to work out the missing intervals and complete each activity. A very detailed lesson plan (from my observation) has been attached and I have also attached the lesson expectations for each group to display on their tables to ensure they have met the learning objectives by the end of the lesson. Additionally, there is a game of Bingo whereby the children have to convert measurements. Each activity was set up on a different table and the children were given 10 minutes at each station.

These resources were created to enable us to track the children’s progress in phonics, from Reception - Year Three. It provides a comprehensive word document, which is highlighted each term to assess the children’s understanding from Phase 2 - 5 phonics, in both reading and writing. Along with this, the Excel document contains a tracker, which has specifically formulas that calculate the percentage of pupils secure in each phase, each term. Once you have assessed the children, use the drop-down option in each cell, to select one of the options to indicate when a child has achieved each skill, within each phase (see key for guidance). This will need to be completed in Autumn, Spring and Summer and will be passed onto the next class teacher at the end of the year. This is a working document which will continue with the class as they transition through school. The intention is to use this tracker to identify gaps, particular sounds or tricky words that the children are struggling with. There is a short set of instructions, however if you have any questions please get back to me in the reviews.

The class was spilt up into teams of 5/6, each of them was given a one of the research 'question cards' (which had been laminated). Each team then had to find the answers to all of their own questions using the information sheets, iPads and books from the library. The children presented their information on a large poster. Once all of the information was collected, the children used this to create their own 'World Cup Board Games', which they had to make a board, rules, game cards, etc for to allow other members of the class to play. The winning team was awarded a prize.

Worksheet on Addition and Subtraction of Decimals, designed for Year 6 to practice inverse operations. The children really enjoyed this activity.

This is a medium term art plan based upon The Tudors. Suitable for upper KS2.

The children must choose three different items off the Christmas list and work out the total cost. They must find as many combinations as possible and check their answers using the inverse operation. It has been adapted for HA, MA and LA but could be changed further if necessary.
