Here are lots of notebook files, resources etc from when I taught the book Floodland by Marcus Sedgwick Any questions please ask

I used the write stuff style planning with my class for Viking Boy by Tony Bradman. We wrote narratives using 5 plot points each with 3 learning chunks. The planning is also included. Also, as my class loved the format, we used the same style for Non-Fiction, newspaper reports. I made an example of a newspaper too as my class also did this for their computing sessions (word processing). I have included this too. We got really good fiction and non-fiction writing from all of the children using these resources. Any questions, please ask.

I made this resource to use with my class and they loved it. We read A Christmas Carol Then we revised grammar and word classes and built up sentences to show our understanding of the characters. Any questions please ask.

My class planned a story about a girl called Elizabeth, who travels back in time to Ancient Egypt, where she encounters a problem she must resolve. I have created a series of 5 plot points, each containing 3 learning chunks. I used the year 3.4 curriculum for the grammar features

I created a series of questions based on Charlie and the Chocolate factory. e follow VIPERS skills in our school so I linked them all to that. They were very successful in my year 4 and 5 classes. Any questions- please ask.

My class have been reading ‘Viking Boy’ by Tony Bradman. I made this worksheet for a grammar lesson we did on apostrophes. Hope someone else finds it useful.

This has an information sheet about Black Friday and 15 different questions for the children to answer. Some open and some closed.

I created these checklist cards as English Coordinator to help embed grammar throughout the school. The children can use them to assess when they have done a piece of writing. I used both the national curriculum and Pie Corbett's progression in writing to put these together. They are very visual and give examples. This is the year 5 one. Had lots of good feedback from our school and cluster from children and staff. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/richbreeds

I made this unit of work based on 'The Hand' by Guy de Maupassant. It is great to do a short narrative HORROR unit with years 5 and 6 and my children loved it. You can get loads of descriptive writing out of them. The unit lasts 2+ weeks. This pack includes complete planning, 8 notebook files, the full text for the children and an assessment checklist. Hope it's useful to others and can all be adapted as needed. I removed all the names etc from my planning. But I reckon year 5 , 6 and 7 teachers could do a lot with all this ENJOY!!

Reading record assessment sheets. These are assessment sheets I created and are great for listening to individual readers and with small groups. These are to be RAG rated to help with assessment. Available for years 1-6. This is the year 6 resource.
