A 3 week unit of work based around the story of Chinese New Year. There are lots of opportunities here for Cross-Curricular links. We are using this unit as part of our topic ‘Around the World’. This year CNY is on Saturday 25th January so this plan fits just after Christmas holidays and ends the day before. It is easily shortened and adapted for 2 weeks or you could pick and choose activities to fit a week of planning. We are ending with a Chinese New Year party! There are lots of other resources easily available to accompany this unit across the curriculum from Twinkl, Mrs Mactivity and other similar sites. I have not included flipcharts for this unit but I have included success criteria grids, any activity proformas to use and a story for retelling. The grammar lessons that are built into the unit are subject to change depending on your class’s needs and the resources available in your classroom, therefore the activities are just a suggestion. Hope you find this useful!

An ideal unit for home-school or live lessons using Teams etc. This 3 week unit uses the first Harry Potter book as inspiration for various writing opportunities. Please note- this is just the planning overview, no resources are included but links and suggestions of where to find things are. You could use this as inspiration for lessons across the curriculum - potions making in science, history of magic, geography and map making - the marauders map, wizards of the world etc.

A complete unit with planning for 3 weeks fiction including: Boxing up grid Oral story Word Bank Wanted poster writing frame Setting description word mats And 2-3 weeks non-fiction planning including: Self assessment grids This planning uses local landmarks as part of the planning so adapt this to suit. I have not included images etc from this as it wouldn’t be relevant.

Two consecutive lessons that focus on the importance of The Bible for Christians. These lessons are aimed at KS1 children and are easily adapted for different ages. Each lesson contains a lesson plan and differentiated resources plus a challenge question. Each lesson has an editable presentation. Included is a KWL grid that you can use to assess what the children know at the start of their RE learning on Christianity. More RE lessons uploading soon!
