An English story writing activity to support children when writing a story.
Children plan their story using a story plan. This activity then demonstrates to the children how to write each part of their story using the story plan. I use this activity over several days to support children to write their story and will often cover several parts in one lesson with mini plenaries in between reminding children what their writing needs. Children like the little girl who pops up to ask questions to improve the story.
The activity could be used in Early Years for orally retelling a story or in Key Stage 1 for writing a story.

A set of 25 Visualisation Activity Sheets.
These activity sheets are designed to encourage children to read or listen to sentences and then to visualise what the sentences are trying to convey. The activity sheets encourage children to look or listen for and respond to clues within the text. Visualisation is an important skill for children to develop and will support them in their future reading especially as they move on to longer texts with less pictures.
This set of Visualisation Activity Sheets starts with five simple visualisation activities for example I am thinking of a black cat, children then need to visualise and draw a black cat. The activities then move on to visualising where, who and when. The last five activity sheets then require the children to visualise why something is happening.
The Visualisation Activity Sheets can be used during guided reading sessions and the children really enjoy creating their own pictures. The sheets also open up opportunities for discussion.
These activity sheets are aimed at Year 1 children.
A set of 35 time activity cards focusing on o’clock and half past. The activity cards cover telling the time, drawing the time, working out an hour or half an hour more or less, finding the odd time out and problem solving activities.
These cards can be laminated for use during Maths lessons or independent activities or can be printed on a smaller scale to be completed and stuck in Maths books.

Aimed at KS1 children.
An activity to support children to learn to spell the 45 Year 1 Common Exception Words and to practise using these words in sentences.

Children to then practise spelling the missing focus word again before the correct spelling of the word is revealed in the sentence.
