This booklet is designed to give pupils an easily stored reminder of a range of grammatical terms, literary tools and punctuation information. This can be used alongside independent writing tasks, grammar tasks or simply as a revision booklet to go through from time to time. My pupils have found this incredibly helpful as they often have struggled to remember all the different concepts they have been learning about and now can just refer to this. Repeated exposure is increasing their recall of the information learned. This is more suitable for upper stages of Primary/Early Secondary level.

This activity book has been designed for KS1/First level pupils to go alongside reading the abridged or child friendly version of the story. With my own class this was also used in conjunction with putting on a short play of the story. For younger/less able pupils, the booklet can be worked through together as a class, with support given for follow up work or done independently with more able or older pupils, following each teaching and discussion or reading session. Contents include: Scrooge Character Description Comparison of Present and Past Design a Christmas Card from Scrooge Write a new Christmas Carol/Song and more

This early level literacy activity bundle contains 18 different worksheet activities to cover phonics, blending/decoding and writing, including a set of story prompts using pictures to inspire some emergent imaginative writing.

This topic planner and display resources are for use with a cross curricular study with a focus on Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone by J.K Rowling. All of the signs and display material requires the font Harry P to be downloaded onto your computer if they are on Word format. I have made a number of posters to explain and showcase the pupils work, in line with suggested lessons in the forward plan. I have now uploaded all display posters as PDFs to enable printing of font without downloading it, excepting any that would require ability to edit. If anyone wishes to have a look at my classroom please check out Pinterest/pammyc88/Harry Potter Classroom 2016. This has been one of the most successful full on cross curricular topics I have done to date in my teaching career and is absolutely loved by all the pupils. UPDATE: I have added in a template in for ‘A Hogwarts Ghost Story’ to the pack as well as a template for using for sending pupils their Hogwarts letters, a set of acrostic poem templates and a final quiz.
