This is 2 weeks (9 lessons) of English activities for my lower ability set. All book pictures are there for each lesson. They are in publisher format and PDF. There are additional pictures for books and display for making marmalade sandwiches instructions(that are not in the plans).

With a winter story theme this is a 4 day plan and activities for the Dinosaur that pooped Christmas. I have looked at the character of the dinosaur, compared it to the dinosaur that pooped a planet. There is a planning sheet and a mock book cover for a new story called the dinosaur that pooped winter. the children must plan and then write the story. There is a smaller book cover for the children to stick in their book when they write their own story.

Phase 3 sounds with a picture and 3 choices of the correct word. Children must blend each word and tick the correct word. Encourages children to think about all sounds. Used as evidence of reading in books. This is a PUBLISHER document.

I used this to remind the children that it is important to think about all of the sounds they can hear. They enjoyed sorting the pictures and then finding the missing sounds. The missing sounds are a mixture of cvc words and the beginning of phase 3. THESE FILES ARE PUBLISHER DOCUMENTS!

For every sound that I teach I put the book pictures in their phonics book to use for spellings and sentences. Then I use the reading activity to assess if they can use that sound to read. They read real and fake words to try and find the correct word.

I have used these sheets to assess children's reading of sounds that they have been working on. It is also useful as evidence of reading in my children's phonics books. Covers phase 3 and 2 sheets of phase 4 words. Children to then read the word and match to the pictures. THIS IS A PUBLISHER FILE. This is in the Nelson handwriting font.

A complete record of a childs recognition, reading and spelling of sounds family words, HFW and common exception words for ks1.

I used this with my Year 1 LA English set. The display pack has question mark and full stop cards that they held up to show if they thought it was a question or a statement. We talked through the questions and statements and ten used the worksheet to tick question or statement. then the children wrote their own questions for a pirate visitor.
