Egyptian Shape Poems

(0)
This is a set of resources that I use for my year 3 and 4 group. They are Egyptian themed so that they can link in with humanities topic. Shape poems are a great introduction to writing in a poetic structure for children, and the shapes offered in this pack are: canopic jars, a sarcophagus and a pyramid. I modelled the pyramid shape to the class so that my lower ability group had more input tailored to them. LO: To write a topical shape poem

Hello Fellow Teachers, Here is a large pack for an entire unit of diary writing lessons. It’s a week long, and all of the planning, resources, evaluations, examples, success criteria and word banks are provided! Even included two fonts for you so that you can edit the .doc format files at your leisure! Hopefully all of the above should help to turn the focus back to teaching as opposed to all of the other stuff we have to do! If you’re looking for home-learning projects, here are links to the resources I’ve put together for whilst the children are distance learning and off school.

KS1/2: Explanation Texts (2 Weeks!)

Hi there! This is one of my biggest bundles for you guys. In here, there are 8 meticulously planned lessons, with extension work and opportunities to extend the learning over multiple literacy slots. There are 12 separate work sheets, including sorting activities, flash cards for drama, using the example of how chocolate is made. All learning objectives and success criteria are outlined for each individual lesson, and all links for extra resources to be found are on the series plan. Honestly, this has the potential to save you a LOT of work! It can be used for any year in primary, as there are alternative difficulty options, and vocabulary choices that can be altered to make it harder/easier. I hope you enjoy it :) Happy teaching, Miss Ritchie

This pack includes 4 activities. The main activity has three tasks that involve classifying words into 1 of 7 categories. This opens up for lots of conversation and debate, which is a great basis for a lesson. The other three activities are mazes where children must get from the top row of the word-table to the the bottom by linking words of that type. I hope this proves helpful! Miss Austin
