60 worksheets aligned to Y5 National Curriculum Objectives. There’s enough here to last for the whole school year, plus extras that can be used for homework or revision.
The worksheets have been sorted into 4 folders corresponding to National Curriculum areas of study, and the last section of every worksheet focusses on this. The first sections all consist of number work: place value, arithmetic and fraction/decimal/percentage exercises, which need to be practised throughout the year.
In addition to these 4 folders, there is a number lines folder with work on fractions, decimals and positive/negative numbers. There is also a set of worksheets providing further practice on fractions/decimals/percentages, which is an area of difficulty for many pupils.
The standard of the exercises is intentionally challenging, and weaker pupils may need to work with adult support.
Answer sheets are included in each folder. They provide useful teacher support during introductions when working through problems with children.
Two sets of 5 worksheets (with answers) for helping pupils to memorise the verbs which are conjugated with être in compound tenses. One is a set of crosswords, and the other is a set of wordsearches.
Also included is an MP4 version of an animated presentation.
This resource consists of two worksheets, each with 10 sentences where verbs have to be changed from the simple present to the simple past (preterite) tense. Some contain more than one verb. Answers are supplied.
This revised resource is based on the Edexcel German GCSE 9-1 Future Aspirations, Study and Work topic (foundation tier - 60 words). There are 4 folders, each containing a vocabulary list of 15 words, plus 4 sets of activities based on the list (multiple choice, matching, crosswords and wordsearches). There are 3 versions of the activities in each set, which makes them useful for test situations to prevent collaboration, or to provide extra practice for homework. Answer sheets are included.
Flash game. Teacher reads out an addition under 20 (eg 5+9). Child with correct answer flips the corresponding number to reveal a letter. As letters are revealed, pupils try to make words on their whiteboards. Winner is the one with most words.
Online Jigword and Matchword activities to practise vocabulary for 25 French topics. Great for Interactive board activities. Look at the worksheet collection based on the same vocabulary: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/60-french-worksheets-for-beginners-greetings-numbers-dates-family-animals-11807712
Proof-reading practice for Y5-8 to improve pupils' SPAG skills and increase the accuracy of their writing. A PDF presentation for the whiteboard. Five 15 minute exercises, each consisting of sentences with errors of punctuation, spelling, grammar or usage. Pupils write out each sentence correctly, underlining the correction they have made.
This is an interactive (Hotpot) Activity to improve pupils’ recognition of French nasal sounds. A multiple choice game played against the clock requiring player to identify rhyming words. It could be played on an interactive board as part of a whole class teaching activity, or set for homework for students to practise on home computers.
eg The given word is ‘foncent’ - does it rhyme with pense, ronce or lancent? (Answer is ronce)
This collection contains sufficient material on multiples and factors to cover several lessons. The material is designed to equip beginners with the skills necessary to work with fractions.
The presentation begins with an introductory slide showing how both multiples and factors are related to multiplication tables. It is then divided into two sections so that the teaching of multiples and factors can be treated separately if desired. Slides are advanced manually, but most are animated with conceal/reveal effects designed to encourage class participation in the lesson. Practice slides are included after each section so that learners can work in a supported way with partners or small groups before tackling fully independent work. Pupil handouts are included (a choice of black and white or colour). They have had answers removed so that they can be used as additional practice material. Learners will find them valuable as reference material when working independently in class or at home.
The 35 worksheets are graded according to difficulty and organised into sets of five. There are three sets on multiples and four on factors. For the teacher’s reference, each worksheet has a footer showing the range of numbers used in each set. They should provide sufficient work not only for use during lessons, but also for follow-up tasks at home and for revision purposes. Answer sheets are provided.
An animated 8-slide presentation guides students through present, past and future versions of active and passive voices of verbs. Simple pictures of a rabbit and a carrot show how word order in a sentence can be changed when a passive verb is used, The term ‘agent’ is introduced.
There are two versions of the presentation. The teacher-controlled version has a click button between each slide to enable the teacher to pace the lesson according to the needs of the class. The fully automated version is designed to run independently, either at the front of the class, or as an independent literacy-centre or home-learning resource.
The classroom poster takes things a bit further, by including versions of tenses not covered in the presentation. This is a resource designed for extension work for more able students.
Two worksheets provide follow-up practice. Answer sheets are included.
This is a collection of worksheets supporting the teaching of 4 compound tenses: present perfect, past perfect, present progressive/continuous, past progressive/continuous. They address the difficulty presented by participles that do not form part of a compound verb (e.g.ten the sound of running water; a broken window), and also that of identifying a compound verb when it is split by other elements (eg I have only just arrived).
There are ten worksheets in all - two worksheets and two answer sheets in each of the five folders.
This collection of resources is sufficient for a 5 sessions of work on adverbs. The material is suitable for Y6 and over, and would also be useful for adult classes or staff training. Editable lesson plans are included.
Each session begins with a short starter activity followed by the main input which is taught through a section of a teacher-controlled PowerPoint presentation. Most slides contain step-by-step reveal animation to enable interaction with the class and provide the possibility of individual whiteboard work. Although full accompanying teacher notes and handouts are provided, teachers are strongly advised to familiarise themselves in advance with the click and reveal system and the links between slides. A PDF version of the presentation is also available for anyone wishing to avoid the animation. This version would also be useful for producing classroom display material.
The unit begins with a general introduction covering the kind of words adverbs modify, and what 4 types of adverbs there are. Each of the other sessions is dedicated to one of the following: adverbs of manner, time, place and degree. Each of the slide sections ends with a 5 question practice slide to facilitate supported group work. Pupil handouts are provided for recording answers to the questions, and each practice slide is linked to an answer slide.
After the teaching input, learners move to an independent worksheet activity linked to the day’s focus. The activities vary in type (multiple choice, gapfill, wordsearch etc) throughout the week.
Every lesson ends with a short plenary.
This is a fully resourced one hour lesson on subject and object pronouns. There is a full lesson plan indicating how the lesson could be structured.
For the starter activity, there is a screen display of a nonsense poem containing pronouns.
The main teaching input is via a 7 slide presentation covering the form of subject and object pronouns, their position in relation to the verb, and how to avoid common mistakes. It ends with a short practice exercise to be done in pairs or small groups. Most slides contain teacher-controlled slow-reveal animation in order to keep the class involved throughout.
The independent exercise which follows contains 15 sentences in which I/me has to be inserted correctly into gaps.
During the plenary, pupils work together on a printed version of the poem seen in the starter. This could be finished as a homework task.
This resource provides sufficient material for a complete lesson on equivalent fractions, and enough worksheets for classwork, homework and revision purposes.
It consists of a 17-slide PowerPoint presentation, 5 graded sets of worksheets, and a two-page help document to support learners/parents/support staff in the independent/homework tasks.
The presentation has teacher-controlled animation to facilitate step-by-step working through of the method. After two slides dealing with key vocabulary, there are 5 showing how to use multiplication to find a second missing numerator, and a further 5 showing how to use division to find the first numerator. The intention is that during the whole-class lesson, the method will become embedded in learners’ memories as they work through a series of problems with the teacher, using the same ‘script’ for each. At the end of the presentation, there is a set of calculations for pupils to work on in pairs/small groups, before moving on to independent work. Answers are supplied.
The step-by-step help sheets have a similar function to the presentation. The first shows how multiplication is used to solve equivalent fractions problems. The second deals with the division method.
The 25 worksheets (sets of 5 with accompanying answer sheets) are arranged in folders, which are numbered in order of difficulty. Since the objective is to teach a method, rather than supply calculation practice, a secure knowledge of multiplication tables is not a prerequisite of success at this level. The easiest folder requires only that pupils know the 10 times table. The other folders also have denominators of 2 and 5.
This collection of resources is sufficient for 6 one hour lessons on adjectives. The material is suitable for Y6 and over, and would also be useful for adult classes or staff training. Lesson plans and answers are included.

Topics covered include:
adjectives before the noun
adjectives after the verb
adjectives modifying pronouns
antonyms of adjectives
comparative and superlative adjectives
correct use of comparative and superlative.
Each of the presentation sections ends with a practice slide to facilitate supported group work. Pupil handouts are provided for recording answers to the questions, and each practice slide is linked to an answer slide.
After the teaching input, learners move to an independent worksheet activity linked to the day’s focus. The activities vary in type (multiple choice, crossword etc). There is also an optional writing extension which is continued throughout the unit.
Every lesson ends with a short plenary.
This is a customisable resource for English designed to get the creative juices flowing.
A list of random words (choice of 2 - 5) is generated and pupils are challenged to come up with ways of including all of them in a piece of collaborative writing. As the class comes up with ideas, the teacher records them by typing on the onscreen board. The work can be saved at the end of the session.
If pupils are not used to this kind of exercise, I suggest beginning with the 2 word sentence option. Challenge them to make sentences that make links between the words. You can move on to the other options in the menu as they become more confident…
Although designed for use in English classes, this resource can easily be adapted for other subjects and for whole school sessions like assemblies. It is great for CPD too (safeguarding training, for instance).
The PowerPoint file is stored in a folder with a text file named ‘words’. By replacing the words on this list by your own, the words generated on the screen can be related to any topic you like. Make sure that you keep the text file and the PowerPoint file together, however, or the nothing work.
I have included a separate folder with three extra word lists (summer, adjectives, and synonyms for ‘said’). If you decide to use them, you need to rename them as ‘words’ and swap them with the original file in the main folder.
You need to enable macros on your computer to use the resource, otherwise nothing will happen!
