Year 3
Pupils needing extra support: Have some information on well-known older people who defy stereotypes, available for the children to use. You could include David Attenborough, the Queen, Paul McCartney, Esther Rantzen, Captain Tom Moore.
Pupils working at greater depth: Look at more than one person who defies age stereotypes; perhaps someone they know and someone who is famous. They can look at how these people defy more than one stereotype, for example, still taking on an active role in society, good with technology and still working.
Year 4
Pupils needing extra support: Should use the Activity: Biography template and provide them with a choice of two people on whom to base their biographies.
Pupils working at greater depth: Can decide on their own format for a biography and use their own sources for research.
