I created this resource for students at my SEMH secondary school who have a varying range of abilities. This is a perfect resource for an end of half term, or a cover lesson. It is highly engaging and my students always enjoy these tasks. Whilst made with SEN students in mind, it would be suitable for mainstream primary and secondary age students. I have made three levels of challenge from low primary school levels with cloze passages, and sentence starters, up to a more challenging “treasure hunt” aimed at KS3 students working at age appropriate levels. There should be something there for everyone! I have also included teacher answer sheets for easy marking. I hope your students enjoy this as much as my students do.
