2027 PP1 Environmental Activities records of work should help you plan, practise or review a clear learning goal. This page combines guidance for using records of work, an illustrative subject example, a follow-up task and general KCSERevision resource links. Adapt the activity to the current curriculum and the learning already taught in class.
PP1 Environmental Activities: KCSERevision resources
PP1 Environmental Activities: further practice
Compare two familiar places such as a classroom and a garden. Describe one similarity, one difference and one practical way to keep each place tidy. Keep the activity playful and brief. Let the child respond by talking, pointing, moving or making before expecting a written response.
Planning check — PP1 Environmental Activities records of work: Complete the record after teaching. Record the outcome reached, the evidence observed and any lesson that needs to be revisited rather than copying a future plan into a completed-work column.
PP1 Environmental Activities: record what was taught and what learners showed
A record of work documents completed teaching, while a scheme describes intended teaching. Keep those functions distinct. After a lesson, record the actual activity, relevant outcome, evidence obtained and any work that remains. A dated entry should help another teacher understand where the class can reasonably continue.
- Describe the completed activity. Name the specific task or example used and the part completed. Do not write that the whole unit was covered when the class attempted only an introduction.
- Record evidence. Summarise what learners demonstrated: a correct method, a supported explanation, an accurate performance or a persistent misconception. Use evidence from the task rather than an unsupported statement that everyone understood.
- Note the adjustment. State any change from the planned sequence and the reason. A delay caused by a prerequisite gap calls for a different response from a delay caused by timetable interruption.
- Set a useful next step. Identify a short action that follows from the evidence, such as revisiting a representation, checking one skill independently or extending an idea to a changed situation.
A practical entry can use date, class, focus, work completed, evidence and next action. Avoid including unnecessary personal information in a shared record. Keep individual assessment details in the appropriate school system rather than exposing them in a public resource page.
Worked teaching example: describing people’s roles in a shared place
Illustrative activity: A picture shows a school gate, a visitor asking a question and a staff member providing directions. Another learner waits nearby.
Task
Describe what each person is doing. Explain a respectful way for the waiting learner to seek help.
Worked reasoning or expected evidence
The staff member is giving directions and the visitor is asking for information. A learner can wait for a suitable pause and ask clearly. The image does not prove the visitor’s identity or purpose beyond the action shown.
A common difficulty to check
Avoid assigning roles from clothing alone when the picture does not identify them. Use the action and the stated context as evidence.
Extend or adapt the task
Act out a short request for directions using a familiar school location. Practise listening to the whole reply before beginning the route.
PP1: make the first response concrete and playful
Use familiar objects, clear pictures, talk and movement before expecting a written answer. Give one instruction at a time and model a short response. Allow the child to point, name, sort or act to show meaning. If the example contains a written passage, an adult can read or retell a suitable short part. Observe what the child does independently and stop before the task becomes tiring. A hesitant spoken response can reflect unfamiliar vocabulary rather than absence of understanding. Record one specific observation to help choose the next activity.
An evidence-based record entry
After using the task, record the date, the part attempted, the support provided and the response observed. Add a precise next action. The model answer is not a record of what your learners did; replace it with actual classroom evidence.
