structured tasks that can be used for intervention with this question type

I created this display for a descriptive writing unit that we did based around the zoo. The display has key features and addresses structure. See my descriptive writing WAGOLL that could be used with this.

I wrote this paragraph for students based on an image of a tiger that we looked at in class. It's good to get students thinking of a 'moving image'.

I designed this sheet for students to be able to measure the impact of their own learning after the round of mocks. There is a checklist for each question type also, so that students can identify their own targets.

A structured activity with a checklist for students to respond to feedback.

A quick resource to use. Pin up individual slides all around the classroom, while students take the information and record it on their own 'bauble' sheet. (This is on the last slide.)

I have designed these activities for learners to revise both Language and Literature topics at the same time. There is 1 task per page.

Differentiate the amount of money that you give to students. Students can then purchase teacher help. The idea is to create resilient and independent students.

This looks best printed on A3. Sheet allows students to revise the text.

Some visual cutouts to make a display based on Dickens' A Christmas Carol. I put this up on a blue background with white at the bottom to represent snow. I then put black borders over it to make it look like a window looking out. Make this even better with gold wrappers from chocolate coins to represent Scrooge's counting house.

Colourful resource. Best printed on A3. This is a good resource to look back on and use for revision.

Get your students to fill out the conventions of each writing style This works well printed on A3 in colour

I'm currently trialing a poem a day with my KS4 groups. I'm using structured questions and a random poem, just to get them used to dealing with poetry unseen. Here is a poem called 'Baggage', along with questions on a PP slide.
