A complete set of home learning sheets for Phase 2. No prep needed, just print and go! FOUR differentiated levels of activity for every sound: Set 1 - s, a, t, p; Set 2 - i, n, m, d; Set 3 - g, o, c, k; Set 4 - ck, e, u, r; Set 5 - h, b, f, ff, l, ll, ss. The worksheets are based on the Ruth Miskin scheme and DFE letters and sounds. They will work alongside all major Phonics programmes. Every level provides children with the opportunity to write the sound and develop their vocabulary using the images. The activities are progressive, moving from initial sound recognition to reading comprehension using drawing. Every page includes images with the initial/final digraph sound to help children to remember them. These have been tried and tested in my own classroom and work well as both home learning or as an independent activity.

I made this for my reception class but have also used it in Year 1 and Year 2. It’s a workbook for children to complete throughout the year to show their progress and record milestones from their year at school. Lots of activities to complete each term, to show just how far the children have come in the year! My class parents loved it!

English and Maths morning work. Made for my Year 2 class for morning word work and place value practise. Children need to find the word in the dictionary then complete the activity. They partition the magic number, practise writing it in words and add/subtract different amounts.

Made for my reception children to introduce them to reading alien words. The aliens zoom past the space rocket window and the children have to read the words!
