Help your children to improve their descriptions and narratives by using these colour vocabulary sheets in your literacy lessons or on display. They equip pupils with exciting words for ‘red’, ‘blue’, ‘green’ and everything in between!
I have been using these colour thesauruses as part of a Writing Toolkit (coming soon!) that I give to my class at the start of the school year. After modelling how to use them in writing, the children then independently use stronger, more effective colour descriptives when describing settings or characters- I even see them cropping up in their speech!
BOTH SPELLINGS OF COLOR/COLOUR INCLUDED!
Included in this download:
A display poster and pocket-sized version of the color vocabulary grid
PDF versions of the resources
.docx Word versions of the resources for editing purposes
2 fonts to edit your resources with
UK/AU/NZ/CA version using ‘colour’ spelling

Writing prompt/stimulus based on retelling the story of Little Red Riding Hood. Teaching PowerPoint and 4-way differentiated planning sheets included in this 29-Page pack.
This can be delivered to a single class, year group or whole-school cohort, or even as an extra-curricular Creative Writing club task!
Assessing writing is a subjective nightmare! With this independent writing assessment stimulus, children can engage in an exciting writing task centred around retelling the story of Red Riding Hood, with older year groups synthesizing the story by adding their own endings. As teachers, we can decide which planning sheet most accurately matches the children’s abilities or targets, and the writing they produce can be assessed against national or state standards.
With Talk for Writing opportunities throughout the PowerPoint, children can discuss their use of vocabulary, ideas for plot and explore their characters’ emotions in peer work or small groups.
Included in this download:
25-page teaching PowerPoint
4 different planning sheet options in PDF format
5 fonts for editing purposes
Editable versions of PPT and worksheets to suit your classes’ needs!

Hi there,
Here's some of this week's planning for play scripts. It's an often forgotten text type, but is helpful for many reasons.
I used this blank iphone template for children to separate who is saying what in a piece of text in order to prep them for writing a play script this week. I hope it works for you!

A small pack based on Kennings. This was for 2 lessons in my class, with the second focused on reciting and memorising poetry as per National Curriculum objectives.
Introductory powerpoint, a write up sheet (with Stone age theme- easily editable) and 2 day lesson plan
Miss Ritchie
Hi there,
I used this lesson as a 35 minute interview lesson, but the resources are easily editable to make use of them for a longer lesson time.
LO: To use subordinate clauses.
Two activities. Resources included!
Hi there,
There are three resources in this pack. There's a background assembly powerpoint to create a backdrop (including links to sound effects etc), the lyrics to a version of 'Gold' by Spandeau Ballet with the lyric changed to 'STONE!' (much comedy), and the script.
On the script document, there's also a helpful table to write down who's who.
This pack includes 4 activities.
The main activity has three tasks that involve classifying words into 1 of 7 categories. This opens up for lots of conversation and debate, which is a great basis for a lesson.
The other three activities are mazes where children must get from the top row of the word-table to the the bottom by linking words of that type.
I hope this proves helpful!
Miss Austin
This is a set of resources that I use for my year 3 and 4 group.
They are Egyptian themed so that they can link in with humanities topic.
Shape poems are a great introduction to writing in a poetic structure for children, and the shapes offered in this pack are: canopic jars, a sarcophagus and a pyramid.
I modelled the pyramid shape to the class so that my lower ability group had more input tailored to them.
LO: To write a topical shape poem
