Ticking Texts Series

3 Resources
The 3 Ticking Texts books encourage early readers to understand texts. Book 1 is aimed at KS1 plus older pupils with literacy problems, whilst books 2 and 3 are more suitable for KS2 plus KS3 pupils struggling with literacy. Each book includes various types of short texts with a low reading level and a high interest level, and the format allows children with poor coordination/writing ability to concentrate solely on text comprehension skills. The sheets are useful for shared and guided reading and for homework and are also suitable for speaking and listening work. Discussion points and extension activities are included for each text. This is a useful resource for children who have ‘learnt to read’ and are now ‘reading to learn.’ Previously available through Easylearn.

Animal Farm

20 Resources
TWENTY fully differentiated lessons for both KS3 and KS4 students on George Orwell’s Animal Farm. Ideal preparation for students working towards AQA English Literature Paper 2. Lesson 1: FREE TO DOWNLOAD HERE We analyze all the major characters introduced in Chapter One and some clues about context and deeper symbolic meaning. Students evaluate how each character is introduced, including Mr Jones, Boxer, Clover, Old Major and more. Lesson 2: We look at Old Major’s speech to the animals in Chapter 1 and how he uses language to influence the animals into supporting his cause. Additionally, we explore the song Beasts of England and evaluate how it affects the animals on the farm. Lesson 3: This focuses on the first half of Chapter 2. Students analyze key sections of the chapter to develop an understanding of characters, plot and also historical context. Recently revamped and expanded. Lesson 4: We create summaries regarding the characters, and how plot and themes are developed in the rest of Chapter 2. Lesson 5: This lesson focuses on Chapter 3 and supports students in analyzing the behaviour of the pigs around the other animals including Boxer, Squealer, Snowball and Napoleon. Lesson 6: This lesson focuses on Chapter 4 and supports students in analyzing language and structure. Lesson 7: We look at the importance of the Windmill in Chapter 5, at what happens between Snowball and Napoleon and how Napoleon uses the puppies to tighten his grip on power. Lesson 8: Now we focus on Chapter 5 and the opening to Chapter 6. We look closely at the battle between Snowball and Napoleon as well as Squealer’s use of language to appease the animals and their initial anger. Lesson 9: This lesson focuses on Chapter 6, historical context and creating analytical paragraphs. Lesson 10: We explore the symbolic significance of the windmill in the text and students develop a more detailed understanding of context. Lesson 11: We find out how tension is building in Chapter 7, the significance of Mr Whymper and why Snowball is portrayed as to blame for everything or a scapegoat. Additionally, students explode quotes and develop their language analysis skills. Lesson 12: Recap Animal Farm by George Orwell through an engaging escape room lesson! It is filled with codes, puzzles and activities to get students to revise characters, themes and contexts as they work in groups or ‘escape crews’ to get out of the Windmill! Includes answers for every mystery and puzzle (see the notes attached in the PowerPoint) and is a brilliant way to help students in their learning. Lesson 13: Animal Farm lesson that focuses on Boxer and how he is presented in Chapter 7 plus earlier parts of the texts. We explore how Napoleon’s trials and executions of many animals mimic those of the Stalin show trials of the 1930s, as well as how the animals react to the death and destruction they witness. Lesson 14: We explore the cult of personality around Napoleon and how this links into historical context, as well as analysing the key events of the Battle of the Windmill and why the pigs’ discovery of alcohol might be the beginning of the end for the animals on Animal Farm. Lesson 15: FREE TO DOWNLOAD HERE Animal Farm lesson that explores how Boxer leaves and what happens to him, how the animals react to this and how they are manipulated by Squealer, and how and why Moses is allowed to stay at the farm despite spreading ideas about Sugarcandy Mountain.

Roald Dahl's Revolting Rhymes Poetry Lessons and Activities

(3)
This is my best selling primary resource and is a set of lessons and activities for KS2 poetry work. These would also be ideal for use around National Poetry Day or World Poetry Day. The lessons are based on ‘Revolting Rhymes’ by Roald Dahl. All lesson resources, differentiated activities and planning are provided as part of the pack. I have used this pack for a week of activities linked to Revolting Rhymes, as well as for a one-off lesson on Poetry Day. It could also be used for a set of guided reading activities. The teaching PowerPoint contains some background and introduction, as well as examples for modelling and discussing each independent task. The PowerPoint and the task sheets are provided in Word and pdf format. There are 5 independent activities, so the pack can be used for a whole week or just for 1 or 2 lessons. Focus can also be on one of the Rhymes or on all six, depending on your requirements. The flexibility of the lessons and the entertaining nature of the text means that I have been able to use this pack in Years 4 to 6, but it can also be easily adapted for younger children. Please note: some video links are included in the sessions, which should always be assessed for suitability prior to use! Also, as is well known, Cinderella is called a ‘slut’ at one point, so be prepared!

Read one text and answer the questions about that text, before moving onto the next text. There are three texts and three sets of questions in each booklet. The tests in this booklet are based on the KS2 Reading Assessment sample papers. It is important to try and complete them in an hour, but it is your choice. The more tests you practise the quicker you will get. 39 pages
