As a foundation subject lead I created this glossary of art terminology/ extended vocabulary list to ensure that the children in my school had a broad range of vocabulary that could be used across the curriculum. I began with Year 1 and, based on National Curriculum progression documents, I compiled a list of vocabulary that the children should see, hear and be encouraged to use. I have added new vocabulary to deepen the children’s understanding and broaden their vocabulary for each year group. The vocabulary lists are broken into Key Stage 1 and 2 and are progressive showing high frequency words, sight words, vocabulary from the national curriculum and where appropriate, the year group spelling lists. These features are colour coded within the document. This list can be used by: Subject Leaders as part of progression documents and curriculum for the school. Teachers as a planning scaffold and an assessment tool to ensure children have a broad Geography curriculum. Teachers to deepen their subject knowledge. Teachers and subject leaders to promote high standards in vocabulary across the curriculum. To ensure Geography is linked to English and reading where possible. Pupils may find this resource useful as a check list in their sketchbooks at the beginning of each topic. My school have used this grid this year and we have noticed a great improvement in the children’s understanding of Geography vocabulary in their speech and through their writing in English.

I have created a series of lessons has been designed to increase your pupils’ word processing skills. The can be used during registration time or as stand alone lessons. One major barrier to learning I encountered when asking children to use Microsoft Word was their lack of experience using Word’s basic functions. I have broken the key elements I believe primary school children should understand down into 6 separate child-led lessons. I recommend that you first model the activities to the class and then let the children explore. This is Level 6: Symbols

I have compiled the list of National Curriculum Spellings for Years 3 and 4 and created a bank of short spelling sessions. This resource is designed to encourage children to understand the origin of spellings and help create meaning for spelling sessions. Each spelling has at least two slides/pages and I have defined, explored and used fun facts to make spelling more memorable. Some spellings come with a short jotter task. This is Term 1 I have broken them down into terms which should ensure that the word list is covered over the year. The resource is alphabetical and covers spellings A-C. I have created this resource in PDF and Activ Inspire Format.

As an experienced teaching SENCo I found that staff would rely heavily on my expertise before identifying the children’s need or supporting them in the classroom first. This took up a lot of my time so I created a 7 step referral process for staff to reevaluate how they approached seeking support for those pupils with SEN. Step 1: Initial Observation forms for staff to complete independently Step 2: Referral to SENCo form for staff to show observations and note concerns Step 3: SENCo 5 minute observation Form Step 4: Observation Follow Up meeting Step 5: Evaluating need. This is an excel sheet with lots of external links to free programmes and resources that can be used as internal support an intervention when external referrals are not necessary Step 6: Graduated Approach and SEN Review Form Step 7: Gathering Evidence for external referrals Step7a: Parental View form
