Cross curricular ideas and ways to differentiate curriculum lessons

www.teachingideas.co.uk/index.shtml


Good clear site – have a look at numeracy / literacy sections as some nice ideas and activities to download. A range of cross curricular subjects covered.

This site has some lovely ideas and may provide a quick way of differentiating lessons or simply ideas to revise what students have learnt.
I liked Classroom timeline ( In History section)
          History Pictionary
          Wicked Science
          What I think of Science sheet
          Science Boot Camp- good Yr 6 science revision
         Skimming and scanning activities (Literacy section)
        
There is a whole SEN section - click under Other then SEN will appear as a tab
I liked Helping with copying tips
          Sentence Pyramid
          Relaxation ideas for ASD pupils

A-MINUTE-A-DAY is a series of two photocopiable books for parents and teachers. They offer intensive, focussed practice of key skills - which are the building blocks of phonics and maths, using precision-teaching based games.
Each game requires the child to give 30 correct verbal responses within one minute. No writing skills are required. The games are widely used in both mainstream and special needs education.


A minute a day phonics and maths - may be a good alternative to tutor to offer parents
