The Teaching Deputy

Average Rating4.20
(based on 66 reviews)

Hello, thank you for looking around my shop. I am a teaching deputy head teacher, with 16 years of experience, who works in a rural primary school. I know how wearing many hats can eat into your time but understand how important excellent resources are for engaging pupils so they make accelerated progress. I have included lots of free resources in my shop but placed a small charge for resources which have taken me many hours to create. I hope you enjoy them and use them to motivate your pupils.

Reading Below Age Related Expectation Assessment Tracking Sheet

(0)
This is an assessment sheet I have designed which has the whole of the primary curriculum for reading. It is broken down into different domains: • Word reading • Inference • Language for effect • Comprehension – Monitor & Summarise • Comprehension – Clarify • Comprehension – Reason & Explain • Comprehension – Select & Retrieve • Themes and conventions I use this to assess the progress of pupils working below age related expectations to prove accelerated progress. At the beginning of each year you mark or highlight where they start in each domain and regularly update it throughout the year as the pupil makes progress. The next year a new teacher uses a different colour. The assessment sheet prints out best on a double sided A3 piece of paper.
