This Endangered Species cross curricular topic planner details the curricular outcomes (ACfE) being targeted as well as lesson ideas and suggestions for each relevant curricular area. This planner is aimed at 2nd Level/KS2 pupils. It also links to the separate topic of the Water Cycle (also available via my shop) and ties the two in together. There are accompanying worksheets on for sale separately to go alongside both topics also. These will all be on sale soon as a bundle. However, both topics would be appropriate as stand alone if desired.

This challenge is aimed at upper level pupils. This gives pupils the opportunity to investigate, plan, develop and make a prototype of a new board game. They are then encouraged to Alpha test in their own class then roll out to the rest of the school to Beta test the product. Feedback forms for pupils to fill in are included and these are differentiated for upper and lower stages. An introductory Powerpoint, planner, worksheets and summative reflection activity are all included in this bundle as well. This is a project that all pupils thoroughly enjoy whilst developing worthwhile skills and knowledge.

This play script has been written based on the F. L Baum story of The Wonderful Wizard of OZ. This is suitable to be performed in upper stages of primary/early secondary. I have adapted the script to make the performance approximately 1 hour 15 mins if you include songs at the suggested points in the song. I have also included a list of characters required, costume plot and song plot. Due to the licensing surrounding the film and music from it, it is suggested you select other appropriate songs to suit the storyline. This is a super choice for a school drama group or club to perform as a school show. It’s well known and popular with audiences and performers alike and this version gives the school a lot more autonomy over the musical elements or can be used as a play only. There are lots of large and small speaking roles and singing can be chosen to suit. This particular script is © to PMarshall at SoundsDramatic. All Rights Reserved. Purchase of this script gives usage to perform once within your school, but may not be shared or passed on outwith. For repeated performances, please purchase the school licence.

This powerpoint covers the most common 3D shapes, properties and related vocabulary.

This resource is a script with directions, an information letter for parents as well as a powerpoint for a class to put on a super assembly based on the common world religions festivals and celebrations. It covers Eid, Diwali, Hanukkah and Christmas. If you have a range of religions represented in your school, that is ideal, however, it would also be appropriate for smaller schools who perhaps have less diversity, as the script is easily adaptable. This is well received by parents, pupils and the school community as it is a super way to celebrate several religious festivals at once. This could be done at this time of year as a stand alone assembly, or can be undertaken at the end of the accompanying RME planner on World Religions which in turn goes with the Solar System topic planner. I have also uploaded song words and backing tracks to support this assembly - all of these other resources will be available as a bundle.

These are classroom friendly templates for developing SWOT analysis with pupils and setting Smart Goals. These could be used on a regular basis for tracking and assessing pupils progress as well as encouraging self evaluation and taking ownership over their learning.

This play script has been based on the story of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. With loveable and well known characters, lots of fun and action, this piece is a great choice for a school or drama club production. It has been written with some musical numbers being suggested throughout, although these can be changed to suit your cast/facilities. There are 17 speaking roles of varying sizes and a chorus can be added to suit. This makes it accessible to both small and large schools and groups. Please contact me via my shop if you have any queries. This particular script is © to PMarshall at SoundsDramatic. All Rights Reserved.
