Long term overview of objectives and activities across KS1.

This set of bookmarks contains lists of words that children across KS1 need to be able to read. These were ideal for parents so that they understood the expectation for reading and also could be used an assessment tool to see if they could read these words after practising these at home. I have also included a class list tracker that I used to keep track of which bookmarks children had taken home.

This is a great resource that I have used for years. I use it to check that children are on the correct book band. These books are from reading schemes such as Bug Club and Collins Big Cat. They do have the old national curriculum levels on them but book bands have not changed since the change of curriculum so still relevant now. I then track my children on a book band tracker which I have attached to this bundle too.

These are used to ensure children can read the range of words across the KS1 curriculum. Year 2 assessments are different each term and you can give a score for each area of the curriculum to identify strengths and weaknesses. I have also created a spelling assessment along the same lines. Please see the other bundle for this.

These are termly spelling assessments that cover the whole curriculum. You can score each area to see strengths and weaknesses for each child and for the whole class. This is a really informative assessment and I made these after searching for a scheme that produced a straight forward assessment and couldn't find it!

Contained in this bundle are guided reading bookmarks for the reading skills needed across KS1, an editable word mat to use with your guided reading books to pick out new words to decode and new vocabulary. I have also included the presentation that I used to present these ideas to my staff at school. The word mats can also be used as an assessment and evidence tool towards to assessment criteria at the end of KS1. I have included some example word mats too. Each group had a set of bookmarks so they knew which skill they were working on in each session.
