Powerpoint introducing vocab for food shops. This can be followed by a group activity with each group focusing on a different shop, drawing out a shop front on A1 paper and choosing, naming and illustrating items on display. The children can teach each other food names relating to their shops. They can then make a shopping list, visit each other's shops and use basic converstaion to role play buying food items. (Shopping list template, wordbank handout and conversation resources provided.)

A powerpoint with images and words for fruit in French, finishing with an activity to invent a smoothie for smoothie bar 'Paradis de Fruits' (template provided) using the fruit names and revising numbers and colours. (Wordbank also provided.) Followed by using fruit names in basic conversation - powerpoint with handouts for children to practise in pairs.

Looking for parallel and perpendicular lines in the world around us and in 2D shapes. The activity involves drawing 2D shapes with certain pairs of lines (differentiated - 3 levels).

Understanding how to sort and classify 2D shapes according to their properties.

An activity to help with expanding the range of adjectives to describe characters. Can be used as a small group activity - each group focuses on a different character/character type, find and circle adjectives that could be used, think of some of their own, and share with class to develop descriptive sentences.

Worksheets differentiated for 3 levels. Data for sort includes odd/even numbers, multiples of numbers and 2D shapes. (Some of the wording of questions was taken from another TES resource... thank you.)

A powerpoint with contrasting images of Ancient and modern Egypt, focusing on cities, shopping, housing, clothing, transport and food. A postcard template (one with more, one fewer lines!) to write 2 postcards home, one from modern, one from ancient Egypt.

A powerpoint which helps children to think about the importance of artefacts and includes images of 10+ artefacts. I used this as an introduction to an art project to produce artefacts for a class Ancient Egyptian museum, but could also be used with more of a history focus... what do the artefacts tell us about life in Ancient Egypt? (Thank you for the text about artefacts which was taken from another resource found on TES.)

Powerpoint with images of 3D shapes. One pupil or pair stand in front of, but with their backs to, the IWB. All the other children in the class can see the 3D shape on the IWB. The guesser/s have to use questions about properties of 3D shapes to identify which shape they are. Class can only answer yes or no.

Good for small group activity with competing teams. Could be useful introduction to food topic to elicit children's existing knowledge and ideas. Questions cover food groups and how the body uses them, digestion, balanced diet and food from plants.

Carroll diagrams worksheets differentiated for 3 levels. Data to sort includes: numbers - odd/even, multiples; shapes - line of symmetry; letters - perpendicular/parallel lines.

Where do our foods come from? What and where are the origins of some of our favourite foods? What happens to foods from their origins to our plates? This is a sequence of lessons that begins with a game matching some packages of food to plant origins and countries on the world map, explores the process and journey of foods (eg bananas and coffee) from the plant to plate, and ends with sharing storyboards documenting the 'life' of particular foods.

A powerpoint for an introduction to Egypt which includes a satellite photo locating Egypt and a few images which illustrate the nature of the landscape.
