About. The resource describes the development of Bloom's taxonomy with examples. It suggests how these might be expressed as lesson objectives, taking care over the use of certain keywords. Prompts to think about planning for differentiation are provided followed by a page to discuss medium-term planning of units and schemes of work.

Pedagogical content. This resource encourages teachers to think about ways to link learning objectives(ta) to the curriculum which also helps to conceptualise their teaching schemes. It also helps children to understand what they are learning and what they are aiming for. The resource brings together key ideas, looking at specific outcomes from activities, vocabulary(ta), differentiation(ta), resources and curriculum development(topic) and short term planning(ta). It could be used as a 'refresher' on ideas when planning lessons. (edit)
