9 full KS2 SATs Arithmetic tests. 36 questions in each paper. 30 mins to complete. Answers included. I hate paper waste so I have created these tests on one piece of paper for pupils to complete, rather than printing out arithmetic booklets that waste tons of paper. I have used these in a variety of ways: pupils have used jotters and maths books for working out then written their answers on the sheets; they have had 1 sheet between 2 and completed the whole test in maths books and I have also displayed the sheet on the iwb and pupils have made their way through the test.

cross curricular orienteering clues - 2D and 3D shapes 10 orienteering clues for OAA PE lessons with 10 flags and score cards for teams of 2. I laminated the flags, hole punched, attached string then dotted them around the school field attached to the fence, trees and other objects. I then paper clipped the shape clues to the flags. I gave each pair of children a different shape which they then had to find the properties for and the number of the flag that the clues were attached to. Aimed at KS2.

I created this resource after the craze of dabbing. My class loved identifying, estimating and measuring the angles of the different dabs of well known celebrities, characters and sports people. Challenge question: Which person has the biggest total dab?

Spelling practice sheet. Space for 12 spellings. Choose two spellings per week for pupils to practise writing in a sentence that makes sense. Hand spellings out on Monday, practice at home Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and spelling test in school on Friday.

Intended outcome for the 6 week unit of work: Pupils will design and make a toy using mechanical cams. They will investigate existing simple automata toys and other mechanical toys. They will evaluate them and look at how they work. Using this knowledge, they will design their own prototype – edit and improve it, then present it to the class. They will consider buyer and use of the product in their design. They will then make their final mechanical product. 6 week plan is included and all of the flipchart slides for the 6 lessons.

Children will investigate, read and plot coordinates on two quadrant grids. This activity links closely to the cross curricular theme - Amazon Rainforest.

6 week unit of work linked to curriculum theme - Amazon Rainforest. Throughout this theme, children will explore the work of artists such as Henri Rousseau and contemporary artist Ruth Daniels, to further their understanding in geography and the rainforest regions of South America. These artists give excellent opportunities to discuss composition; where the whole picture is filled with foliage, to compare the observational skills of the artists; to express preferences and extend the use of artistic language and vocabulary.

Children will investigate data and statistics. The data shows the rainfall and temperature in Manaus (central Amazon) compared to London. Pupils could use the data to draw a line graph/bar chart etc. There are also questions that pupils must answer linked to the data. This activity links closely to the cross curricular theme - Amazon Rainforest.

The flipchart includes links to all videos by clicking on the images. The worksheets and activities are stored in the flipchart so clicking on the images will open the files. I have also added them as files in the download. Learning Intentions: To know about animal life cycles To research Amazon wildlife life cycles To be able to plan a fair germination investigation To know that flowering plants reproduce To be able to design a very dangerous plant To know about naturalists and behaviourists - David Attenborough and Jane Goodall

Years 5 and 6 spellings split up in to weeks for the full year. Spelling practice sheets attached for pupils to use look, say, cover, write, check for each day of the week when handed out on a Monday and tested on a Friday. Spelling practice sheet also includes the opportunity for pupils to practice writing two of their spellings each week in a sentence that makes sense.

Long multiplication lesson suitable for years 4,5 and 6. The flipchart slides include a maths starter, teaching slides, main activity, challenge and plenary. The main activity is to work out the total running time for different running paces between 14 to 3 mins per mile. This includes multiplying decimals by up to two digits. Challenge: 3km is a good distance to run. This is the same as 1.9 miles. Calculate the total time for each of the paces.

Links to cross curricular theme - Amazon rainforest. This is a challenging maths activity where pupils have to calculate how long the journey takes from Manchester airport to Manaus airport in the Amazon rainforest. Pupils will have to calculate up to 3 different flights per journey and include any layover or connection times in their final total journey time answer. On the activity worksheet, there are six different journeys all with the same destination. Pupils could be further challenged by calculating which journey is the quickest/slowest and order them. The flight times have been taken from the internet and were accurate on 22nd April 2017. We have been reading Journey to the River Sea in class and Maia (main character) in the book travels from England to Manaus, so this activity is a great link.

I have created two Making Connections Posters; one with key questions and the other with sentence starters for pupils use for making connections between the text they are reading and themselves, another text and the world. This activity helps pupils to deeper their understanding of a text through making links for themselves. Use the think-aloud strategy to model how to make each type of connection, using your list of personal connections to the particular text. This activity is brilliant when pupils extracting specific information from the text that they then make links to.

Children will understand friction and how it can affect our lives. They will understand how friction can be a good thing and a bad thing. Children will understand how gravity effects the Earth and how there are other forces at place such as air resistance.
