Three different ideas for creative writing on the theme of Halloween.

This is a worksheet with exercises for children to show their understanding of what a correct sentence should be, including punctuation, capital letters and ensuring that it makes sense.

This is a worksheet with a variety of grammar and spelling activities. It could be given as a test, or it could be an activity for children to work on when they have spare time. Some of the tasks will take longer than others.

A worksheet with different exercises to show understanding of verbs and how to use them.

This worksheet is particularly useful for EAL students, encouraging children to ensure agreement between the subject and the verb in a sentence.

This is a resource containing 31 weeks of spelling lists which I have used with a Year1/2 mixed class. Each list has an option of 8 or 10 words and can be photocopied and given to the children for homework. Obviously you could adapt the lists to suite your own class, but the framework is there.

This is a worksheet with a series of exercises based on homophones. Children need to complete sentences and write their own. It could be used as an assessment tool at the end of a unit of study.

A simple worksheet in which children need to recognise and use action words.

A simple worksheet to show understanding of word order in sentences.

A simple powerpoint presentation with words and pictures containing 'a' as in the word 'plant'.

These are display posters of vowel phonemes with examples for each one.

A simple worksheet to demonstrate understanding of statements and questions.

I created these activities for my year 6 class. There is a reading log with vocabulary and comprehension questions based on each chapter of the book. There are also some creative writing and art ideas to accompany the book. I have included a review page which can be printed on the back of the book cover design page.

This is a series of ideas for creative writing at Christmas time in primary classes. They can be adapted for different age groups.

This is a test that I have used to assess progress of year 5/6 children midway through the year. It covers areas of English grammar that they will have studied in the previous 4 months. There is a full answer sheet.

I use these line guides to enable children to write neat copies of poems and short pieces of prose onto plain A4 paper. The line guides are placed underneath the plain sheet, held in place by paper clips. They can be laminated to avoid children accidently writing on the guide!
