A couple of lessons I made linked to the picture book Journey. Pupils really enjoyed this and I also linked it to the trailer on YouTube.

A lesson on the Listeners poem. The instructions for the activities I used and the worksheets are all on the PowerPoint slides, with the same PowerPoint to accompany the lesson.

Use to break down tasks and instructions. Can be used by a teaching assistant and laminated for easy use.

One man band clip, engaging and differentiated resources. Worksheets are on the pp-print as a whole slide.

An engaging activity for reluctant writers.

A diary for SEN pupils to write their feelings on the general school day/a particular lesson etc. Please comment.

I based this on a year 7 other worlds topic. Resources include Virgin Galactic adverts with s&l exercise, a writing frame for an advert, success criteria for designing an advert and a linked peer assessment sheet.

A lesson to match old Olympic mascots to descriptions, to follow information about the Rio mascots on https://www.rio2016.com/mascots/#!home and to design their own Olympic and Paralympic mascot. Additional work on fact files for their creations.

For one of the first lessons of the year.

Can be adapted! Please comment. Thank you.

Exam questions to answer in mixed ability pairs, as well as think/pair/assess sheet to individually form own ideas beforehand. To be photocopied to A3 size.

I used this for Functional Skills level 2 but it can be used for developing knowledge of the trickier vocabulary, from KS3 onwards.

A map for the rules of conversation plus a self assessment sheet.

A revision tool for studying the poems Cousin Kate and Valentine. Useful to stick in pupil books, display on the wall and to use as a lesson resource. My pupils have found this very useful.

Write feedback to your students, allow them to self-assess and respond with their next steps. Works well.
