Ideal for teacher training or NQT a literacy bundle that has a range of worksheets for SEN, Early Years, Reception, Primary and Preschoolers.

With the speaking, listening and writing we ask carers to email or let us know a couple of things that their child did at the weekend, so that we are able to prompt children or get other children to ask appropriate questions. We also check children's listening by asking 'Who went shopping, who visited family, who was ill, who walked the dog, where did they go, what did they buy' etc. before the students write what they did with help, by copying from a white board or working independently.
Also includes a colouring activity to check children's listening skills. Adult asks them to colour a particular part of the picture a certain colour and records if they did it correctly.
No prep needed - just cutting and gluing with the children. You may need whiteboards and pens to help the children with spelling.
The objective of this lesson is: Students will show initial understanding of rhyming by using thumbs up/down to identify if spoken word pairs (e.g., cat/hat) have matching ending sounds during a “Rhyming Yes or No” game.
This lesson is around Ruby’s Worry story book.

This comes from the BLEW (Bilingual Learners Early years Work box) document. I typed out useful extracts to keep somewhere prominent for teachers and observers to refer to. I thought it was an excellent basis for judging where bilingual learners are in their acquisition of English.
