This is a comprehension aimed at Key Stage 2 to address the issue of cleanliness and personal hygiene. The text covers all areas of personal hygiene such as washing daily, washing your hair, brushing your teeth, washing hands etc. It also includes ten questions for the children to answer along with the correct answers for the teacher.

This is a page of images taken from Google all of which relate to Anglo Saxon life. Fantastic for children to create a ‘mood board’ style piece of work exploring all aspects of their lives. It includes images of runes, people, houses, mead halls, symbols and artifacts. I have also used to to create a ‘Final WOW’ at the end of a unit where children create an explanation of Anglo Saxon life and present it to the class. A great resource with plenty of uses!

This is a great resource I have used with my Year 5 group, but would work well as SAT’s revision or as individual teaching elements in LKS2 or as a recap of skills in KS3. The Murder Mystery consists of five challenges based on five different SPAG areas. The children must follow the instructions on each challenge to find a clue. Each clue helps to eliminate people from the suspect list. A notebook file is included with examples of each style of challenge in order to check understanding before the children begin each task. The task begins with a story about a murder in a sleepy village and asks the children to help solve the case. Included in this set of resources is: Instructions for the teacher. A story introducing the event. The suspect list. Five clues** (with all of the answers). ** A self-assessment tool to use at the end of the unit of work. A bright, colourful Notebook file which guides through each challenge and includes examples. A lesson plan. SPAG skills covered by this resource include: Clue 1: Full stops and Capital Letters. Clue 2: Nouns, Adjectives and Verbs. Clue 2: Commas Clue 4: Subordinating and Co-ordinating conjunctions. Clue 5: Speech Punctuation. This works brilliantly in mixed ability groups or by individual groups of pupils. Higher ability pupils relish the challenge of investigating for themselves whereas some lower ability or SEN children will need support. It can be used across one (or a series of) lessons or as a weekly starter/plenary/SPAG task which can extend the ‘whodunit’ tension across an entire half term.

This is an extract from the cat in the hat with 7 comprehension questions including literal retrieval, inference, multiple choice and reasoning. I am using this for a lower ability intervention group, however it would suit any KS1 group or lower ability KS2 group. I have included a title and image too.

I have created a bank of 15 different items that can be purchased from different supermarkets. Underneath is a price which is differentiated three ways (red is lower ability, yellow is middle ability and green is higher ability). These can be easily edited to suit the needs of your children. They can be used for addition, subtraction, worded problems and open ended real world challenges.

Comprehension designed to be used with a lower ability year 5 class, but could easily be adapted for all of KS2. Made to raise awareness of nits as an issue and how to get rid of them properly. Updated edition. Image is taken from Google and I do not own copyright. Resource and questions written by myself.

This resource folds into a double flap booklet. It can be used for any topic and can be easily adapted. Lines can be increased in size to accommodate younger children or picture boxes can be added, removed etc.

Practical lesson for multiplication. Children will work in mixed ability pairs to calculate the answers. They must then move around the playground/hall/classroom to locate the answer on a poster and record the letter shown. Once they have gathered all of the letters, they must unscramble them to find the hidden code. An excellent lesson which engages all children. Also included is the lesson plan, posters for around the room and the sheet the children will write on. Has received excellent feedback in lesson observations and with Ofsted.

A resource that begins with 2x2 digit multiplication, then moves on to 3x2 digit and finally 3x3 digit. At the end there are three greater depth questions involving finding missing numbers using reasoning skills and finally a self assessment traffic light. A fantastic resource to assess learning at the end of the unit, as a revision lesson, for HAP as a task during lesson or to assess prior knowledge before beginning a unit. Also available with the answers. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/multiplication-review-or-lesson-worksheet-with-greater-depth-questions-with-answers-11784163

Children to write a summary of what is happening in the stained glass window scene. They can then colour the stained glass window. Great English lesson on the run up to Christmas or can be used in R.E.

Children will use the final verse of 12 days of Christmas to answer mathematical word problems. Aimed at KS2, but could also be used with support in KS1.

A selection of Christmas themed words scrambled out of order.

This is a selection of 15 images all containing an action (for example: a dog barking, a bird flying, a child skipping). These are to use in any capacity of a way of generating sentences. I have used them in order to provide ideas for work on main and subordinate clauses. The dog barked --> The dog barked when the doorbell rang.

A simple zone of relevance board. Children can use this for ANY topic as it is generic. Find words (either known or using a thesaurus) and sort them based on how well they describe the topic or person. The words which are okay sit on the outside, the words in the center of the diagram describe the person/topic perfectly. Can be a great starter task or activity for LAP.

Give children a selection of non-fiction books either based on your current topic or all topics. Children will work in pairs (sheets should be on a3 is possible) to look through the books and gather the relevant information. There is a higher and lower ability or children can work in mixed ability pairs.

Here is a set of differentiated resources which can be used for all abilities. There is a HAP, MAP, LAP and SEN resource. Children need to join the sentence to the matching adverbial phrase. There is also a word bank sheet for children to use with their own writing.

Children write how the character feels inside the body and what they look like or can see outside of the body. Links to the video Eleven from the Literacy Shed (free video clip) but the picture could be removed to link to any topic or can be used as a generic space man.

Differentiated with 6, 5 and 4 digit numbers. Children complete the table by rounding each number and filling in the boxes. Would make a great revision or starter task.
