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.

Teaching English and Evidence-Based Learning Skills in One Lesson
I recently came across a fantastic KS2 resource that allows teachers to develop English and key learning skills simultaneously – saving valuable lesson time. It’s a lesson plan based on the classic tale of the Emperor’s New Clothes.
🚀 Why this lesson is great
🌟 Teaches the features and meaning of proverbs
🌟 Includes a collaborative poster design activity
🌟 Develops 3 key evidence-based learning skills: collaboration, thinking skills and independent learning
🌟 Contains a 5 minute teacher CPD activity on independent learning
The lesson starts by introducing what proverbs are, with plenty of examples for children to analyse. Pupils then work in pairs to design an informative classroom poster on proverbs, putting their understanding into practice.
There are two independent learning tasks to consolidate what has been learnt, including summarising proverbs in their own words. The CPD activity provides teachers with recent research on how self-regulation leads to independent learning, plus a short task to check understanding.
I would give this complete, ready to use resource 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 as it develops so many skills efficiently in one go. The Emperor’s New Clothes story is familiar to most children too, so they can focus on developing new English and thinking skills rather than grappling with unfamiliar content.
I highly recommend this lesson for a time efficient way of covering multiple learning objectives. The key EBL skills it focuses on are based on substantial educational research over the past 50 years.
