Literacy for early years
We're Going on a Bear Hunt Worksheet
A worksheet designed for a 1:1 literacy class with a primary student. Aimed to develop reading comprehension, story telling and writing skills. Would work well within a young learner EAL classroom too.
The Tiger Who Came to Tea Comprehension
Reading comprehension questions and literacy and class activities for guided reading through The Tiger Who Came To Tea.
Ss find answers within the text, write in full sentences, give opinions, match food to the place where it’s found, find adjectives, think about articles and countable and uncountable nouns, design a plate to feed a tiger, and start to think and plan their own tea party.

Monkey Puzzle Song Gapfill Makaton
A gapfill for the Monkey Puzzle Song by Julia Donaldson on YouTube. The missing words are available in a box with a picture prompt for differentiated support. There is also a worksheet for Makaton signs for animals from the story.
This took my class a full hour.
We listened to the song to enjoy it. Then we listened twice to do the gapfill. Then we read through the song lyrics in feedback to check our answers. Then we sang the song two times - trying with actions the second time! Then we discussed what Makaton was and made the signs and guessed which animals from the story they could be. Then the students drew their own pictures of the animals next to the signs.
