I've collected together all the materials used for all the past phonics screening checks - 2012 being the first year it was implemented. I thought I would upload them to save others to trouble. Please see this link for mock paper materials: https://www.tes.co.uk/teaching-resource/Mock-phonics-screening-check-6453074/

Hi there, I thought I'd update a set of book labels I made for our school to keep consistency. Each class has an animal name and picture as you will see, each of these is easily changed. We print these onto labels (standard 4 to one A4 sheet) to make it easier to stick onto books. There are 4 boxes in the bottom left, we use these to colour code books and identify for Pupil Premium, SEN, EAL and slow movers. This makes it easier for books scrutiny's but also mean the children won't know what they mean. Hope it helps somebody looking for a whole school theme!

Hi there, In case anyone needed a rough long term plan for numeracy coverage (revisits, main teaches and vocab) for Year 1 I thought I'd upload this in case it's useful.

Hi all, I've uploaded my: Literacy + Numeracy planning, weekly timetables and also learning challenge planning (Science, history, geography, art, dt etc) medium term plans for Autumn 2. You'll also find 'overall coverage' which is how I divided up the new curriculum as a snap shot over all the half terms of the year and the running themes. I've uploaded as is for you to tweak or use as you need to. Many many hours of work here so thought I'd share the love and save you some time. I'm also uploading my planning for the other half terms as well, so if these were of use for you then check those out too.

Hi all, I've used this homework for the past 2 years and it's always gone down well with parents. Each bit of homework is differentiated into 4 parts based on the ability groups and colours within my class (can be changed). I've included an initial letter to parents to explain the homework (on the first homework doc). I've never sent homework home to parents in Autumn 1 due to transitioning up from Foundation and the step up in learning already. It usually alternatives maths and literacy each week and then I've included phonics homework for when you near the phonics screening. All the homework was hand made by me, so not just copied resources from elsewhere online. Hope you find some use in it and can tweak it to suit your requirements.

Hi all, I'm RE coordinator (amongst other things) at my school and thought I'd share the the whole school planning I've put in place. We have a termly RE week so it's divided up in that way. I've also added in trips and visitors etc to cover all bases and so that we aren't duplicating across school. It has objectives for each year group broken down for each term. I've also then added planning ideas and activities for each. I've added our policy and also the Nottinghamshire Agreed Syllabus for RE where the objectives have been taken from. Hopefully I've saved you some work! :)

A variety of mock phonics check words to practise on

Hi all, I made this for my school and we use it in combination with separate literacy + numeracy coverage documents + RE weekly themes planning. Hope I've saved somebody some time. (colour coded by national curriculum colours as we copy and paste objectives into our medium term plans like this)

Number sentences - differentiated by colour.\n\nGreen (easiest), Blue, Red, Yellow (hardest). I have these laminated and cut up and in different colour number sentence boxes. A really handy resource to throw out for an extension or independent activity,

A resource I've made to help the children in my class recognise and use the pattern 1 more, 1 less, 10 more and 10 less on a 100 square. In addition with their knowledge of partitioning this helps them add and subtract 2 digit numbers.

A variety real and alien words I've used with my class. Laminate and cut out. Children to sort words, add sound buttons to words or find the real words to use in a sentence.

I spent a long time making these cards so thought I would share to save somebody else the trouble!\n\nThese vocab cards cover all the vocab in the Nottinghamshire 'Maths Project&' followed by some schools.

Image showing final product, card insert and heart with message around it to print. Children use 2 different colours on their hands to create a heart in the middle.

I use these in my Year 1 class. I stick them onto card (colour coded to their groups) and write on individual targets. The children have them on their tables during Big Write and at the end of the session they show me their work and together we read back the target and decide if they get a 'tick&'. If they achieve 5 tick they get a class reward, have achieved their target and I stick another target over it - just a tab at the top so you can still see their previous targets. Ofsted love them.

I use this with my class to highlight patterns. For example which digit certain numbers end in (multiples of) and odd and even numbers.
