A set of 4 differentiated booklets that we created for year 4 within the context of our rainforest topic. The opening letter inside each booklet sets the budget that the group had. Lower ability and very lower ability had prices in pounds, leading to multiples of 10p for the luxuries. Middle and higher ability had pounds and pence. The idea was that, within their budget, they had to buy 1 of each essential and spend any leftover budget on luxuries. It prompted such good engagement and enthusiasm within my class that the lesson was graded Outstanding (in old Ofsted terms). It could easily be edited but as it took us ages, I feel others should get some use of it too.

Week 1 from the full scheme of work described here:
This is the first week from a full scheme of work for Upper Key Stage 2 children comprises of 60 x 1 hour English lesson plans and ALL resources (differentiated) for a 12 week unit centered around ‘Journey to the River Sea’ by Eva Ibbotson. The unit covers non-chronological report writing (based on the Amazon Rainforest); biography writing, poetry and persuasive writing. As well as four rich writing opportunities (non-chronological report writing, biography writing, poetry and persuasive writing) the unit covers many punctuation and grammar aspects through bespoke teaching videos and teaching slides. The unit covers word classes, prepositions, relative clauses, determiners, cohesion, subject and verb agreement, perfect form of verbs and irregular verbs. The English unit has strong links with PSHCE as it explores the themes of prejudice and discrimination in ‘Journey to the River Sea’ as well as learning that personal behaviours can affect other people.
This is a simple crossword aiming to encourage students to ask about what's happening in their world.
Download and then print this simple and easy to use PDF and save time preparing for the next Economics, Geography, Business, or PSHE lesson. The puzzles are excellent for a lively and informative home room period or even a substitution lesson when the ascent colleague hasn't left enough work. You save your precious time and the students get to learn about last week's news events.
The puzzles seem to work best when students work in pairs or groups of three, so they discuss the clues and therefore the events of their world. They work even better if the teacher does the puzzle with the students.
In this week's puzzle… Have you heard that if a butterfly flaps its wings in the South American rainforest....? Well, the number of monarch butterflies wintering in Mexico is 27% less than last year, Peru’s ex-president, Alejandro Toledo, was charged with bribery, and London’s mayor said that London’s air is so polluted that owners of diesel-powered cars should be aid not to drive them and there are no leaks from a nuclear power plant in France but lots of air pollution in UK. A French farmer and a Swedish reporter were both found guilty and given suspended sentences for helping refugees into their countries. Renewable energy made up 90% of all new electricity in the EU but there’s still too much coal being used. Extreme temperatures in the past weeks have resulted in many forest fires in New South Wales, about 400 pilot whales beached themselves in New Zealand, England beat Wales in the Six Nations rugby and 17 people died at a football match in Angola. Cannabis may be decriminalised in Ireland and some forms of domestic violence in Russia may also be decriminalised and a Russian millionaire negotiated to lease three uninhabited Kiribati islands to establish an alternative Russia. The Handmaid’s Tale rose on the bestseller lists because, the author Margaret Atwood says, of worries about women’s issues after the US election, the US commander in Afghanistan asked for 2000 more troops, North Korea launched a missile, and a Chinese man was reunited with his family after being stuck in India for 50 years. Whew!

I told the children that they were going to a desert island, and they could only take a select number of people with them. I gave each table a set of island card, and between them they had to choose which people, based on their age, gender, personality etc, they wanted to take with them and why. We did hot seating which they loved aswell. I also made a record sheet for myself to see who the children wanted to take. There is a writing frame aswell which the children completed giving their opinion.
