I am a Primary School teacher, currently working in Year 3 and about to complete my NQT year (which has flown by and been absolutely brilliant!) following completion of my PGCE at the University of Cambridge. As this is my first year of teaching, the majority of my resources are aimed at Year 3 students though I have a number of children with SEN so activities are differentiated many ways. Usually they follow a 'mild, medium, spicy' format with further differentiation for additional needs.

4-step task planner for children with SEN

I print these out and laminate them and have them on the child's desk for me to write simple steps for them to complete the task as independently as possible. I also have a large version of it across the bottom of my whiteboard because generally the whole class benefits from it being broken in to manageable steps and it stops them coming up and asking what to do next!
