I'm an experienced key stage 1 teacher. I make a lot of my own resources and I'm publishing them on here in case they can be of any help to others.

This is a collection of fun, independent reading activities for readers in key stage one. Each activity uses words that are decodable up to phase 5, so can be completed independently, allowing children to keep practising their reading in fun and enjoyable ways. The resource contains multiple versions of 4 different independent worksheet activities- wordsearches, ‘design a front cover’, ‘read the list and draw the item to match’ and another quick drawing activity . There are also blank sheets for further activites than can be tailored to support reading of specific books. On the last page are further ideas for formal Guided Reading follow up tasks. The download contains powerpoint files, which is the program I use to make the worksheets. These are formatted to A4 and are included so that you can change and adapt the sheets as you see fit. The resource has a contents page, briefly explaining each activity. Each activity uses words that are decodable up to Phase 5 of Letters and Sounds and no further. Some pages are differentiated to use words just to Phase 3 or 4 (noted on contents page). I personally give these activities to independent reading groups during guided reading carousel sessions. I find these activities give children a fun chance to continue practising their reading skills even when not working directly with an adult. Each activity easily takes up a 10-15 minute session, meaning children stay engaged whilst learning and you can focus on your group without interruptions.
