Description
These evidence-based learning (EBL) lessons are based on classroom practice that has been proven, by research, to maximise thinking, learning and attainment. From an extensive review of educational research, we identified the eight key classroom thinking and learning skills that were common across these research papers. We named these eight key skills “EBL skills”.
EBL skills have been proven by research to maximise learning because they combine the most productive thinking skills with the most effective learning behaviours. Each of our evidence-based learning lessons uses the English curriculum as a framework through which the eight EBL skills are delivered.
Teachers also have the opportunity to add to their own skill set or refresh their existing skills with our five-minute CPD activity, based on one of the EBL skills used in this lesson.

Analysing Traditional Tales: A ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cross-Curricular Resource
Seeking an engaging way to advance literacy and critical thinking together? This excellent KS2 traditional story lesson exploring early and late tales is a complete English resource ideal for building reading, writing, comparison and more.
Students will analyse the key features of traditional stories, applying this knowledge to identify differences between simpler early and more complex later traditional tales. Comparing settings, characters and plot complexity develops textual comprehension. Collaborative report writing then reinforces understanding.
Vital evidence-based skills are seamlessly integrated too. Peer assessment strengthens analytical abilities. Self-assessment teaches students to critically evaluate their own work. And the 5 minute teacher CPD activity models reflective practice – considering what worked to improve future lessons.
With its blend of reading, comparison, analysis, discussion and joint writing tasks, I’d give this ready-made early and late story lesson 5 stars. It meets UK curricular goals for advancing literacy and higher order skills via immersive content. Students will love contrasting the tales as they progress communication abilities with this high quality cross-curricular resource.
