Worksheet designed for KS3 pupils with SEN including autism. Help card included for pupils who may struggle with the task. Strips to paste in exercise books with basic extension task. Books used as examples are likely to be familiar to pupils. Simple activity, would be suitable for younger pupils without SEN, or older pupils with SEN.

Worksheet to support pupils in reflecting on events in their lives so far. Developed for pupils with SEN and autism who struggled with reflection, recall and sequencing.

Presentation and mind-map template - to assess student's learning at the end of a topic. Could also be used s a formative assessment tool at the beginning of the topic, with students adding their new learning to the mind map at the end.

Designed for Y7 pupils, all with autism. Two PowerPoint presentations - one on Victorian Childhood and one on Victorian toys. TEACCH style questions (for both topics) to ensure that activities are structured. Cut and paste activity - cut out pictures of Victorian toys and complete the table.

Resources made to support SEN group with autism. We read 'Little Polar Bear' by Hans de Beer. Colour cards are orange 'who' words to support Narrative Intervention. Structured visual (TEACCH) included to support students to write about Lars and Henry's journey. This is coloured red as this covers 'where' words. Will work equally well for children who are not using narrative intervention - in which case the word colours could just be random. Could also benefit children without ASD who struggle with working memory, attention or writing activities. Saved as PDF.

Several resources on a Three Little Pigs theme. Designed for primary children with autism but would also work for mainstream. Three Little Pigs wordsearch Three Little Pigs wordmat 'All About Pigs' information sheet with accompanying booklet for children to complete. (Comprehension) Wolf / house craft - children cut out squares with pictures of the Three Pigs' Houses, these are stuck onto the main sheet as a 'door'. Behind the door, children write whether the Big Bad Wolf managed to blow down that house. 'Is' or 'Are' worksheet with Three Little Pig theme.

These 2 Power Points were designed to accompany a 'Victorian' box, on load from a local museum. The lessons were planned for a group of Y7 students, all with autism - therefore speaking, listening and attention skills were also targeted, together with more general social skills. Students also struggled with theory of mind / speech and language which the describing activity and game sought to target. My young people really enjoyed these lessons and the activities were completed over several weeks. If you are lucky enough to have a local museum which loans topics boxes then that wold be ideal, however the activities would also work if you have your own set of Victorian learning resources.

Resource created to support learners with ASD in understanding personality and appearance - this can be a real area of difficulty for learners with ASD. Children should write outside of the first image, describing 'outside', they write inside the second image to help them understand that personality is on the 'inside'.

Question cards, children to clip a clothes peg onto the correct answer (yes or no). Some questions are literal, others require reasoning / knowledge of concepts such as biggest / youngest, prepositions, colours or general knowledge.

One sheet to introduce the idea of writing lists. One sheet to support children to use the information from the list to write a sentence. This sheet ties in with Robin's Winter Song which we are beginning after half term but doesn't need reference to the book - it could just be an independent list of what animals eat. Designed for KS2 children with significant SEN / autism.

Resources used in my ASD specialist provision class last year, this was a mixed age and ability class who found positional language very difficult to master, even with lots of practical lessons! The pictures used are coloured teddies as we had teddy counters in class. I’ve chosen the colours to match the counter colours so we could use physical teddies for children who needed a more concrete experience. Teddy before / after - 3 A4 sheets. Two of these sheets have a line of teddies at the top, with an arrow to show the direction that they have lined up in. Children need to answer ‘before’ questions (e.g. ‘who is before orange teddy?’) As most of the children had limited literacy skills, I included a strip of teddies at the bottom of the sheet so they could cut and stick instead. This allowed for more independence. The 3rd sheet was an extension for my more able children. Children had to use ‘before’ or ‘after’ correctly in sentences about the teddies. Position Teddy - 5 A4 sheets. Sheet 1: 3 lines of coloured teddies Sheet 2: simple tables Children are given one of the 3 teddy strips which they use to complete the table on sheet 2. Sheet 3: black and white teddy strips to colour Sheet 4 and 5: directions strips Children are given a black and white strip and a sheet of directions (e.g. ‘Red teddy is 1st’ so the child colours the first teddy in their strip red) I chopped and laminated these where appropriate (the teddy strips and instructions) so they were reuseable. They can also be left as they are and glued into books. Together with some practical work, these activities covered maths lessons for over a week. If laminated, they are also good to come back to as one off refreshers, or for 1:1 or intervention work.

4 baseboards and 16 cards (best laminated to make the resource last longer). Baseboards each showing 4 items. Pupils use the accompanying cards to identify which items go together (e.g. head goes with cap). Boards and cards are colour coded to ensure that the sets don’t get mixed up. I used these as workstation tasks / morning jobs but they could also be printed and used as worksheets. Designed for children with autism / social communication difficulties to develop reasoning / logical thinking and for the child to begin to make connections. Can be extended by asking the child / young person to explain their reasoning.

Sorting activity, used as a workstation task but could also be used 1 to 1 or for small group work. Used to develop reasoning and reading comprehension. Children sort fact cards into ‘truth’ and ‘lie’. Cards best laminated so they last - I blue tac the truth / lie cards onto 2 plastic containers to give more structure to the activity.

2 CVC activities I have used in my mixed age autism / social communication ARC. These would also be suitable for mainstream learners. CVC words- word shape:10 A4 sheets, with 6 CVC cards on each page. Each card has a picture of the CVC word and, underneath, the shape of the letters that make up the word. I laminated these and used them in a variety of ways but they could also be used as worksheets. CVC Write the Room - my class love these! I chop up the numbered cards and blue tac them around the classroom. The class go around with a clip board and the answer sheet (included). I usually do 2 different write the rooms at the same time so more able children do a different version. There are 12 numbered cards to complete and an answer sheet. These too have the word shape underneath to act as a visual cue. 4 A4 sheets in total. Most of my learners have ADHD as well as their autism so moving around the classroom allowed for physical movement and was more engaging. The words are: rat, wet, hot, cup, cap, jam, bed, car, net, lid, saw, bus.

**File 1: 2 Christmas themed worksheets. ** A) Children to look at the picture and identify if the character is left or right of the Christmas tree. B) Children to look at the picture and identify if the character is in front or behind the Christmas tree. File 2: 2 Christmas themed worksheets. Cut and stick the Christmas characters, following instructions to place them left or right. There are 2 different worksheets, the 2nd has simpler language and the key word is highlighted. I also accidentally forgot to delete the first page which is a duplicate from File 1.

Children read the word and attach clothes peg onto the appropriate picture. To reduce the possibility of guess work, many of the pictures are of items which are similar to the word if read incorrectly, for example ‘scare’ shows pictures for ‘scar’, ‘scare’ and ‘share’. Three sets of cards are in pack, 15 cards in each set, so 45 cards in total. Cards need trimmed and ideally laminated. I designed these for my learners with autism / ADHD as a more interactive way to practice reading, but they are also suitable for KS1 / SEN.

Book review template designed to support KS1 narrative intervention work (who, where, when, what happened). Used with a small group of KS1/KS2 learners with autism but also useful for mainstream learners who are beginning to learn the key elements of a story.

Sorting task designed for students with autism / SEN This is designed to be used in different ways depending on ability level: * cut and laminate cards, students sort into 'autumn' and 'winter' baskets. * students write 'autumn' and 'winter' in books, they then cut and paste pictures under the correct heading. * students write headings in book then use chart to write each fact into their books * students write headings in book then use chart to write sentences, using each fact in a sentence.
