I used this blank iphone template for children to separate who is saying what in a piece of text in order to prep them for writing a play script this week. I hope it works for you! Miss Ritchie

Reviewing books helps children know that it’s okay to like or dislike a book, and also allows them to work out what their favorite genres are.

Help your children to improve their descriptions and narratives by using these colour vocabulary sheets in your literacy lessons or on display. They equip pupils with exciting words for ‘red’, ‘blue’, ‘green’ and everything in between! I have been using these colour thesauruses as part of a Writing Toolkit (coming soon!) that I give to my class at the start of the school year. After modelling how to use them in writing, the children then independently use stronger, more effective colour descriptives when describing settings or characters- I even see them cropping up in their speech!

Included in this download: A display poster and pocket-sized version of the color vocabulary grid PDF versions of the resources .docx Word versions of the resources for editing purposes 2 fonts to edit your resources with UK/AU/NZ/CA version using ‘colour’ spelling Looking for the full Writing Toolkit?
