Teaching non-native English speakers, I have made this resource to help students recognise the words in the sentences used for the test. I use the test at the end of Grade 1 (age 6-7) with Bangladeshi children to find a reading age. Some associations are difficult - suggestions for better clip-art pictures for ‘it’ and ‘have’ are welcome.

These books can be printed, folded and illustrated by young children as they learn English. This is a set of 12 books plus the free book Draw Me A - Friends.

This worksheet worked really well with a group of EAL children in Year 3. We read the instructions, they were able to follow them, and we saw that objects made from iron and steel are attracted by magnets. The only issue was that some children thought iron, steel and other things were simply metals.

A simple clock face. Click on a hand to move it to the right position.

This template allows teachers to quickly create spelling lists for their class. For ESL I use clip-art pictures behind each word. If anybody knows about a free font that doesn't have an 'f' with a tail, do let me know in a comment. Type each 2, 3 or 4 letter word and press enter to get to the next line.

Lines on a powerpoint for children to trace and copy.

The powerpoint contains four slides. The first two slides are the answer sheets. The last two can be printed as work sheets to assess mastery of Level 1 words from the Structured Spelling Lists from the Literacy Hour. (Some pictures could be better, some are specific to the location, all are added because the children are ESL) I print the first two on A4 paper for the children.

This little book can be printed on two sheets of paper and folded for beginning readers to illustrate with their own drawings.
