These are the PowerPoints that I rolled out to my school as part of my role as whole school Literacy co-ordinator. The task on each PowerPoint should last about 25 minutes; the remainder of the lesson spent reading for enjoyment. Within each PowerPoint you have a differentiated task for year 7,8 &9. These PowerPoints come with printable resources! I have more week-by-week focuses; look in my shop :)

Students can use this colourful resource to look at the director's interpretation when watching a film version

A simple resource

Print, laminate and cut out An extremely useful and colourful display for the KS3/KS4 classroom

This is a nice little resource to use that will get students using their inference skills. The students have to match the small section of the text to the relevant illustration. This works well for students cutting them out and sticking them onto A3.

I created this report to support staff in dealing with low level behaviour issues in the classroom. The points can be amended depending on how many lessons you have the student per week, but the general idea is that the students have the incentive to save themselves from obtaining an after school detention based on the points that they achieve each lesson. For example I did: 5 points per lesson, 3 lessons per week. Students had a target of 12 points per week; anything below that they were issued with an after school detention. Staff can deduct the points how they seem fit.

A structured worksheet to help with empathetic writing The resource contains a differentiated version too

A series of cards for students to match the structural device to its definition.

A step-by-step guide showing students how to maintain a focus within their exams.

A short presentation that structures discussion around spotting the differences in two images and then making inferences.

A revision resource that shows students what they need to write about in each paragraph of their essays on poetry. The PETAL structure details how they need to structure each one of those paragraphs.
