Scanning Game (Starter / Plenary)
A fun game that helps to improve students’ ability to scan for information.
Can be used as a stater / plenary.
HOW TO PLAY
Students are given a printed sheet containing a grid of 225 words. The teacher then reads out a statement from one of the 100 provided, such as: “Find something with a long nose”. The students must then scan through their sheet and find a correct word, such as “elephant”. The student who finds a correct word the fastest gains a point. The student who receives a total of ten points first is the winner of the game.
Whilst answering it is usually best for the students’ to place their finger on the answer and then to put their hand up for the teacher to check. (Otherwise I have found that they tend to shout out an answer without identifying it on the sheet!)
Can be played individually or in small groups.

Spelling and Phonics Cards
This pack contains 18 spelling cards (two per each page) that can be used as part of a spelling/ phonics intervention, starter, plenary or as part of a planned lesson. This pack contains the words that my students have consistently struggled to spell.
Each card contains three sections:
Make - Students have to make the word out of Play-Doe, sand, etc within the outline provided.
Look- The word is then used in a sentence with an image.
Write- Students write the word between the handwriting guide lines.
Write- Students write the word without the help of the guide lines.
These cards should be printed, cut out and then laminated in order for them to be re-used. All you will need is a dry-wipe pen and a tub of Play-Doh (or similar.) This activity works well as a more active alternative to the standard ‘look, cover, write’ method of teaching spellings.
