As part of our history topic on 'The Stone Age', children learnt how to dye fabrics using natural sources. After physically having a go, the children wrote instructions about what they did.

I created these resources for a Year 3 lesson on London Landmarks. This was part of a larger unit of work on British Landmarks. The children had to research facts about various London landmarks, completing a table and answering questions. I provided each table with a range of books and information sheets (not included) about London Landmarks. They also had access to laptops to aid them with their research. In this pack, you will find the differentiated tables for children to complete using their research. I have also included the questions for each ability group. The SEN and lowest ability children have got sentence starters to help them write about what they found. I have also included a sheet I used with an EAL child, on which they had to match the images of London landmarks to their names. The children enjoyed finding out about different London landmarks and were telling me facts for weeks. I hope this pack can be useful to you too. =)

I created this resource as a starter for a lesson on writing play scripts. I wanted children to recap what they already knew about the layout and punctuation of play scripts. Each page of this document was used for a different table group. I cut out the individual words and punctuation marks then provided them to the children in envelopes. They had to work in groups to order the words and punctuation so that they made sense as part of a play script. The children enjoyed this fun starter and it was also a good opportunity for me to assess their prior knowledge and understanding.

A worksheet designed to help children write more creatively - getting them to show the reader about the characters rather than tell.

I created this resource when I was completing my teacher training as I wanted to evidence that I had explicitly planned for a teaching assistant. I found it worked really well, especially as the TA was fairly new to the role. I would recommend this resource to NQTs and teachers with new teaching assistants. I have left an example plan that can be edited. The second sheet also allows the TA to give some written feedback about how the activity went.

A multiplication square designed to help children practise recalling multiplication facts (1 to 12 times tables). Children are able to record their score out of 144 as well as the time taken for them to complete the grid with the hope that each time they complete it, they will be able to recall the facts with greater speed and accuracy. I have also included a blank square so that the numbers can be written in any order. This challenges the children to be able to recall their multiplication facts regardless of order.

This resource contains two posters designed to explain how to use apostrophes to show both possession and omission. Both posters contain examples for pupils to see as well as explanations of how apostrophes should be used, including for plural possession.

This resource contains a poster giving examples of various fronted adverbials and explaining how they are used. The worksheet is designed to help familiarise children with fronted adverbials and makes a great homework activity or lesson starter.

A worksheet designed to introduce children to the column method of written multiplication, in which they multiply a 2 digit number by a 1 digit number (TU x U). This is a short activity - great for homeowrk. I have also included an answer sheet.

A worksheet that demonstrates how to use the grid method of multiplication to multiply 2 digit numbers (TU x U, TU x TU). A template sheet is also included, so children are not required to draw out their own grids if they are new to this method. I have also included an answer sheet. This activity is great for homework.

A poster showing all multiplication facts from 1x through to 12x. At the bottom of the poster, I have also included sequences that demonstrate how to count in multiples of 25, 50, 100 and 250 as these are valuable facts to know. I used this to stick in the back of children’s numeracy books to help them self-check. I have also sent this sheet out in a parent pack to assist with homework.

This resource is to be printed double sided and laminated. One side explains the place value of different digits in a number and how to multiply and divide by 10, 100 and 1000. The other side is a blank place value chart that can be written on with a white-board pen to help children with various calculations. There is a version using Ones and a version using Units so choose the one most suitable to your school’s maths policy.
