A spelling book that can be used in class or set for homework. The spelling lists follow the British National Curriculum from phonemes (EY) to spelling rules (Year 2). I have used it is class and parents love the guidance of what spelling words to follow at home.

Here is an inference lesson perfect for exploring the text ‘Tuesday’ by David Wiesner. I linked the lesson with using colourful semantics to help children frame their answers which worked very well for KS1 children, especially for EAL pupils.

Use these guided reading records to assess your weekly reading objectives in class. The met and revisit boxes are great for highlighting any reading objectives that need more reinforcement. These reading records have been management and inspector approved as a useful assessment tool. All the reading objectives are clearly stated to ensure full coverage of the reading curriculum. These were very useful as an English lead too as they ensured good coverage of the reading objectives and progression throughout the primary school - see my bundle for records from Foundation Stage to Year 6.
