Just to use for ideas. I have copied and pasted the last, general comment that I used on the end of year report to parents. Might just give NQTs a few ideas if you're stuck.

A silly story captured in screen shots. Watch the film at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csdZQZmgKfQ I watched this short cartoon with my class who then cut the small images out, stuck them into their books and retold the story next to it with a focus on punctuation. They really enjoyed it because the story is so silly! Pictures can be used for many different activities but will hopefully save you some time!

Such a fabulous animated film - www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGxmschhkNg A fun week of English planning with resources including models for writing.

Please do review any resources that you download - many thanks!
