<p><strong>Primary Science Worksheet: Different types of Magnets</strong></p> <p>Students have to identify different types of magnets (horseshoe, button, disc, bar) and then label the pictures accordingly</p> <p>Students can color in the pictures once they have finished</p> <p>Worksheet aimed at higher kindergarden/lower primary level</p>

<p>A collection of five, editable, topic cover pages for Year 1 and Year 2 pupils to stick in their exercise books or folders at the beginning of a topic. This resource is designed to aid both teachers and pupils in tracking and monitoring learning in science.</p> <p>Each cover sheet is available in PDF format as well as MS Word format to allow for editing so the resource can be personalised for your classroom and school.</p> <p>Each cover page includes:</p> <p>PLAN YOUR LEARNING - A simple table for learners to record what they already know about the topic and record questions they have to find out more. This encourages young learners to be reflective and provides an opportunity for them to propose questions that can lead to pupil led enquiry later on in the topic.</p> <p>TRACK YOUR LEARNING - This section includes two tables for children to self assess and monitor their own learning. The first table focuses on the key Subject Knowledge Targets that learners should have met by the end of the topic, to be working at age related expectations. The second table included Skills Targets that learners will get the opportunity to focus on and practice over the course of the topic. This will scaffold the development of pupils’ working scientifically skills and support teachers in making assessment in monitoring that learners are working at age related expectations when working scientifically.</p> <p>SCIENTIFIC VOCABULARY - The final section includes a collection of age appropriate scientific vocabulary that pupils are likely to use during the topic.</p>

A fully resourced KS2 science lesson about the human eye and how we see. The lesson contains a teaching PowerPoint, full planning and differentiated tasks (challenge and extra support). The resource explores how we see things, then focuses on the different parts of the eye and their functions. The independent tasks for the children also link to these themes.<br /> <br /> Please note: some video links are included in the sessions, which should always be assessed for suitability prior to use!<br /> <br /> Includes:<br /> *Teacher PowerPoint presentation<br /> *2 differentiated eye labelling task sheets (lower and middle/higher ability)<br /> *3 differentiated eye part functions task sheets (lower, middle &amp; higher ability)<br /> *Full planning, linked to science curriculum<br /> <br /> Please see the Goldtopfox shop for more great teaching resources:<br /> https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/goldtopfox

<p>Here are some ideas for teaching about the Olympics in preparation for the Paris Olympics 2024.</p> <p>This bundle includes:</p> <p>Activity Ideas<br /> Medium Term Plan<br /> Lesson Plans<br /> Science Investigations<br /> Key Concepts<br /> Ideas for Historical Sources</p> <p>Hope they are helpful!</p>

<p>Primary Science Assessment Tracker:</p> <p>This is a tool to help teachers track attainment and progression of students from Year 1 to Year 6. The spreadsheets contain all the KNOWLEDGE and WORKING SCIENTIFICALLY learning objectives from the 2014 National Curriculumn, separated into two tabs for each year group.<br /> The spreadsheet uses a binary code (1 or 0) to clearly highlight when an objective has been met (or not) by a student. There is also a calculated percentage so teachers can gain a good idea of how much of the curriculum their pupils are achieving (good for hightlighting high achievers as well as low attainers).</p>

<p>If your fed up with hunting for decent science assessments for Primary children, or paying well over the odds for them, then look no further. This resource includes twenty-eight different assessments as well as a detailed mark scheme, designed to make marking efficient. Every single Primary science objective (NC 2014) is covered in each of the child friendly tests. Not enough? Well, also included is an excel spreadsheet which has been designed to make tracking progress a breeze. Simply fill in the marks for each child and the spreadsheet will do the rest of the work for you. It will give you a ‘grade’ for each individual objective, a total grade for each science topic and an overall science grade. This method of assessment quickly allows you not just to see individual pupils’ weaknesses, but also weaknesses within the class as a whole and provides the teacher with an excellent evidence base. In this era of tracking without levels, this is an essential resource for all Primary teachers. Please, leave feedback for this amazing resource!</p> <p>ALSO ADDED: Individual assessments for ALL science objectives for ALL year groups are available for purchase as are individual year group, KS1, KS2 or complete Primary packs.
