Differentiation:
• Gifted learners: advanced tier tasks, extension questions, peer tutoring roles.
• Struggling learners: sentence starters, word bank, pair with stronger partner, visual scaffolds.
• SEN (universal optional support): extra time, simplified handouts, graphic organisers, chunked instructions, no diagnosis assumed.
Physical pause (5 min within main stage): "Passive command" – teacher calls out active sentences; students stand up if passive, sit if active, then do 10 shoulder rolls / stretches. Quick energiser.
