Three famous poems and reading comprehension questions to go with them. Questions include question types found in the 2016 and 2017 SATs papers or in End of Year assessments.
Poem 1 - You are old, Father William - Lewis Carroll
Poem 2 - Sick - Shel Silverstein
Poem 3 - Mary’s Lamb - Sarah Josepha Hale
I have used these as whole class exercises and for specific groups in guided reading to great effect.
Three fantastic reading comprehensions based on three of the best fantasy texts for children. Each contains comprehension questions with question stems from the 2016, 2017 and 2018 SATs assessments and a detailed mark scheme.
1. The Hobbit - J.R.R Tolkien
2. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe - C.S Lewis
3. Alice’s adventures in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll
Perfect for guided reading, whole class text dissection or homework. Tried and tested with great results.

Included in this bundle are three complete suites of Gap Analysis / Question Level Analysis grids for the 2016, 2017 and 2018 KS2 SATs.
Every paper, every question.
Grids change colour depending on whether questions have been answered correctly and the grids auto calculate scores, indicating pass/fail or greater depth.
Please see individual resources for more details.
A complete bundle of Gap Analysis Grids / QLA (Reading, GPS, Spelling, Arithmetic and Reasoning) for the 2018 KS1 SATs assessments. I have also included links to the papers, the mark schemes and the conversion grids within each spreadsheet.
Please read the description of each individual resource for more information.
Complete suite of Gap Analysis grids for the 2016 , 2017 & 2018 KS1 SATs. Reading, Maths and GPS papers for each year plus links to the matching assessments.
Please read each resources page for a more detailed breakdown of the contents.
These are excel spreadsheets Gap Analysis documents for the 2023 Year Two SATs Papers for Reading.
The sheet totals up the scores automatically and each child’s final score changes colour to reflect their ability.
If their total score for a subject goes green, it means they would have passed the 2023 SATs with that score. If it goes Purple, it means that child would have achieved a ‘Greater Depth’ score for that tested subject.
I have also included an instructions and document page, linking to a freely available copy of each test, mark scheme and instructions. Additionally, I have included a link to the conversion tables from RAW Score to Scaled Score.
All a teacher has to do is enter their children’s names and enter the 0’s, 1’s, 2’s or 3’s for each question, which also change colour too for a visual reference. I recommend that a teacher should enter ‘N’ if a child did not attempt that question. This gives an idea of who is not even attempting certain questions, not just whether they got the question wrong.
The sheets are set up for 30 or 60 pupils but more can be added/deleted and instructions are on the first page/sheet. Some cells are locked/protected in this document but the parts that you need to insert yourself are editable. This is so that the formulas/algorithms do not break and render the spreadsheet’s functionalities as broken.
I take requests for Gap Analysis Grids. Please leave feedback if you like this resource as I am planning to produce more for each SATs paper going forward, as well as CGP Practice Papers.
Please remember to rate this resource as I made this to save teachers time. Thank-you.
