This fast paced and fun lesson is designed to support a low level or mixed level Functional Skills English class with their writing skills. A great lesson to use at the start of the academic year, this lesson revolves around a article about a 5 year old body builder who made it into the Guinness book of Records and focuses on using direct speech, alliteration, puns and hyperbole to show bias and make writing more interesting. Many tasks are group are pair based to help support lower ability learners, but has some higher ability elements to stretch and challenge stronger learners. Vocabulary focus begins with the starter and is reinforced as you move forward, so students are thinking about language and words from the very start.
This resource comes with a full PowerPoint, and 3 worksheets including the article, worksheet and a planning scaffold. TES preview often distorts the look of the resource and this is not always a true reflection of the material. Feel free to play with and amend this resource to fit your teaching style and / or needs of your cohort. Hope it helps.

This hyperlinked PowerPoint covers fundamental and highly important vocabulary and grammar basics.
Each page has a grid of 25 or 36 tiles. Each page has its opposite version (each page of Spanish word tiles has its equivalent in English). By clicking on the tiles the translation will be revealed.

Every slide has a link back to the menu page from which any page can be accessed. This is a perfect resource for all abilities but particularly good for more experienced learners to stretch themselves and test their knowledge of conjugation (irregulars) and also for weaker students to focus on key topics such as weather, questions words and common verb infinitives.
