Some people think that history is a thing of the past, but I see a future in it... This week, I created this Stone Age Settlements lesson, which looks at the discovery of the Skara Brae settlement in the Orkney Islands. There is also a warm up activity into what a timeline is and putting history into a context. You can download the Powerpoint presentation below. The sheets I refer to are also below in the form of publisher documents that require drawing of their own homes and the ones at Skara Brae.

This is another 'whistlestop' lesson, assessing where children are up to with the four operations (add, subtract, multiply, divide). You may wish to ask children to write the questions in their books. This is a good way of seeing who remembers their formal written methods, who may need practical equipment and who knows about place value (eg: multiplying by 10).
Today's maths Powerpoint is designed as another quick, pacey lesson, this time meeting the objective of rounding to the nearest 10 and 100. It should be enough for you to diagnose who remembers how to round, while also being a useful way of introducing it as a new concept. Enjoy... PS: Here's a relevant joke you can magpie if you're brave enough. A bloodthirsty king wishes to go to war with the neighbouring kingdom and asks his army general how many men he has. "97 men, brave and loyal, sir!" says the General. "Fantastic! Round them up!" says the King. "We have 100 men, brave and loyal, sir!"
Continuing our whistlestop tour of the y3/y4 counting objectives, this Powerpoint will see which children have retained their values of digits learning, partitioning learning and ordering numbers learning. There are questions for two objectives at the end. I will be asking the children in my class to do these on whiteboards, but it may be prudent to print out the specific pages for books and slice them into A, B and C questions to differentiate. Enjoy!
Maths - Recapping counting in 2s, 5s, 10s and 3s, number bonds to 10, 20 and 100, and number facts9/13/2020 When lockdown happened in March, most school children were learning from home using a variety of different means. Often, learning wasn't co-ordinated, so one child might learn one thing and another something completely different. The activities below will help Year 3 teachers begin to find a baseline for their new cohorts with regards to "Counting" objectives. This lesson is a fun whistlestop tour of counting objectives, number bonds and number facts - all learning outcomes that children should know from their infant curriculum. It culminates in a set of number bond questions to write in books/on paper, with answers provided. You will need whiteboards/something to write on. You will need Powerpoint to open this lesson.
