Year 6 Mini Comprehensions PowerPoint - The Secret Garden
This includes 5 mini comprehensions with short extracts from The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett.
Each Comprehension fits on two slides with the text repeated.
It was created using PowerPoint 2013.
These ‘higher level’ comprehensions require the children to…
…use inference and deduction
…back up what they are saying using quotes
…answer ‘find the word’ or ‘find the group of words’ questions
…identify why the writer has written something in a particular way
There are absolutely no basic recall questions!
THIS RESOURCE IS ALSO AVAILABLE SEPARATELY IN A PRINTABLE FORM WITH EACH ONE FITTING ON A SINGLE SHEET OF A4 PAPER.
Target Number 3
Use addition, subtraction, multiplication or division and the 3 numbers to get the target number.
This PowerPoint has 25 different problems, but it would be very easy to add more should you need to.
This was created using PowerPoint 2013.

Easy Certificates
You just need to type the child’s name, what they received the reward for and your name. You can add a date (or anything else) if you like. You can also do a bit of ‘copying and pasting’ to speed things up a bit.
It is a 16 page document so there are enough for everyone in your class. They just need to be printed and cut in half to create A5 certificates.
The coloured text is automatic, but you can easily change this or the background if you wish.
