The resource addresses the Y6 NC requirement to use ‘the perfect form of verbs to mark relationships of time and cause’. It is a challenging unit of work, and would be appropriate for KS3 as well as KS2. Originally, it was written as a single lesson, but given the scope of the vocabulary and concepts covered, It is probably better to extend it over two sessions. The colourful presentation has teacher-operated conceal/reveal animation, and ends with a paired pupil exercise to be completed in the first lesson and reviewed in the second one. There is a KWL (know/wonder/learnt) chart to encourage self-assessment by pupils and give teachers insight into achievements and difficulties. The unit ends with a pupil worksheet at two levels to allow for differentiation. Weaker pupils can be set just exercise A, where the auxiliary verb and past participle appear consecutively in the sentence, and more able ones can be set the additional challenge of exercise B, where the auxiliary and past participle are split by other elements (eg adverbs, negatives) in almost all sentences. Two of the slides have been saved in png format so that they can be printed out for classroom display.

These four texts are retellings in modern English of traditional Chinese folk tales. One - the story of the Nian - is specifically about the origins of Chinese New Year traditions. The other three could be used at any time of the year. These have several common themes (money, religion, magic, kindness, and more which could be suggested by pupils themselves), and would make a good starting point for textual comparison or cross-curricular work (eg RE, citizenship). The texts all come with a set of 10 questions which could be used for discussion in assembly, or for formal written comprehension in the classroom. The folk tale format makes the texts accessible to a wide age range, including KS1, whereas the themes broached in many of the questions make them more suitable for able KS2 or KS3 classes.

In addition to these 4 folders, there is a number lines folder with work on fractions, decimals and positive/negative numbers. There is also a set of worksheets providing further practice on fractions/decimals/percentages, which is an area of difficulty for many pupils.

The display slide consists of simple sentences demonstrating how to colour code words and phrases into Subject - Verb - Object. On the accompanying worksheet, the task is to colour code sentences. There is also an extension activity for early finishers - adding subordinate clauses to sentences.
