Aimed to ensure no child is left behind, these recovery curriculum expectations grids outline key, end-of-year expectations for Key Stage 2 in line with the National Curriculum strands for English.
In each document, the previous year’s expectations are included in the left-hand column and act as prerequisites to tick off before a child moves on to the current year’s expectations. This acts as a net to catch any gaps that may have manifested due to the time off in lockdown during the academic year of 2019-2020.
How do I use this product?
I will be sticking these into the back of the children’s books and ticking them off when completed.
They could also be assigned to a child digitally to save on paper and needless touching of joint resources.
Alternatively, these could be used holistically for an entire class, or for emerging, expected & exceeding groups.
In each product (separated by year group), you get access to:
PDF versions of the A4 tables
National Curriculum strands are referenced for each expectation
.docx Word Document versions of the A4 tables to edit to address particular needs or school-wide focuses

JK Rowling has published her new children’s book, The Ickabog, online for everybody to enjoy whilst at home.
She is also hosting an illustration competition for children to design her characters and setting- the winners will be published with the book in November 2020!
This project’s focus is on the use of apostrophes for contraction and possession, and the 5-day booklet breaks down these skills in multiple ways. Children will have to recognize apostrophes for contraction and for both singular and plural possession; additionally, they will use both types in their own sentences, recognize mistakes and explain why apostrophes are used.
