Page 3 has the answers to the gap-fill, but can also be used as an ordering task (chop up or shuffle first!). Page 4 has guidance for pupils to prepare their own sentences about their daily routine in the past tense.

This straightforward task card helps a pupil to understand when a task is complete. Write their name and what the task is on the sheet, then tick a box when each part is completed. This sheet shows 10 boxes to tick, but just cut off the second row if you want 5, or adapt it yourself for any other number. I have used this with tasks such as "Count out the right number of tokens" - I say "three", pupil counts out 3 tokens, then I tick the first box, and so on. Useful with children with autism, who sometimes struggle to understand when a task is complete. Suitable for laminating and use a whiteboard pen.
