Teacher Guidance • Each theme is stand-alone and can be used independently or as a whole package. • The materials are fully adaptable and designed to be used flexibly, depending on the age and needs of the pupils and the time available. • We strongly recommend that teachers read the book fully prior to using the teaching materials to gain an understanding of themes covered, some of which may be more appropriate for upper Key Stage 2. On slides where particular consideration needs to be taken, this has been indicated within the notes. • Suggestions of additional supporting materials, including You. Tube videos, are provided in the notes on relevant slides. We strongly recommend that videos are watched in their entirety before sharing with pupils to ensure that they are appropriate and that they have not been corrupted in any way. • The package provides rich opportunities for oracy: please see Pi. XL’s Oracy Progression Map for further information about the development of oracy and supporting materials.
