I’m reuploading this resource of a very popular card game template with a different name so I don’t get another slap on the wrist! I teach SEND so these are giant sized and good for those students with weaker fine motor skills. It’s an engaging activity which takes little planning and is excellent for reinforcing learning/revision/hooking reluctant learners/generating discussions/etc. They’re super easy to make- get the students to populate the cards and then print, stick pages together, cut round and laminate two at a time. They can be brought back out for revision of topic areas covered and are suitable and adaptable for all subjects. Enjoy!

Hello! Thanks for viewing the resource. Included in this download: 1x highly visually engaging and fully differentiated lesson 3x differentiated worksheets to support group work. I hope it will engage your students and afford you a bit of extra self care time! Please check out my other Macbeth resources too. Always do get in contact if you have any questions or comments, and please leave a review if you can. I’d really appreciate the feedback.

Very much as it says on the tin (no whistles or bells)- Behaviour report card template to reinforce good behaviour. I print them out on green, yellow and red card (green 1 week, yellow if it escalates to two weeks and red on two weeks or more). These can be linked to rewards and sanctions etc that you have in your class/school. The timetable is editable so easily adapted- I teach a high school SEND class. On the back page, there are three boxes for comments - one for school, one for home and another for the pupil to self-reflect on their behaviour. This is a Microsoft Publisher file. Hope it helps!

Here are a couple of lessons I’ve made for my school around the issue of racism in regards to the Euro 2020 competition. It has lots of development potential- I made these lessons very quickly and there has since been some wonderful and positive news about communities coming together. You will get: 2x Highly visual powerpoints 2x differentiated worksheets (writing a letter for the second lesson so no worksheets for this one!) 1x slightly abridged article It should hopefully prompt some discussion.

I’m super proud of this resource. I created it for an Ofsted observation and the HMI called it ‘Genius’. That was a first! Aimed at KS4 SEND students, it’s got clear literacy and life skills links and can be easily adapted to suit most topics. I’ve left the WALT and differentiated WILFs to show how I used it, but the money cards blank so you can input whatever content that is most relevant to you. Included: Colourful, funny and pacy presentation with challenge opportunities and subject matter that the students can relate to. Question cards with different monetary values (these are slides at the end of the presentation) Engaging collaborative task Opportunities for self-assessment Full, detailed lesson plan You can use fake money or create your own. I downloaded this fantastic resource and edited it to reflect my school: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/your-school-bank-notes-6160301 Please let me know how it goes, or leave some feedback/suggestions! I’d love to hear them.

This is a fully resourced, fully differentiated maths revision lesson on measurement, and a whole heap of fun. I threw some code breaking as a starter in there to get them warmed up. My KS4 SEND students loved it as a break from Functional Skills practice papers. This could easily work for UKS2 and LKS3. This download includes: Bright, colourful and highly engaging Powerpoint presentation 3 sets of clue worksheets, differentiated four ways each- so 12 in total! A worksheet to collect their answers through the steps and to help them work through the suspect list. Hope you enjoy it and it saves a bit of time. Please let me know how it worked for you and leave a review! All feedback/suggestions very much welcome. N.B. I made this on a Mac using Word 16. My work PC didn’t like it so if yours doesn’t either, I’ve got my reformatted copy on my stick. Please just let me know and I’ll send that over to you.

This is an intervention booklet I use in my sessions with more able SEND KS3 students. It could be used with KS2 students too. It has a range of activities: Comprehension Design a computer game Design a promotional poster Word search and colouring pages for fast finishers. I have also added a PowerPoint to accompany this resource, should it come in handy.

There was an error on the Books round answer slide (Judith Kerr was written for Jacqueline Wilson- FIXED NOW) This is a really fun, bright and visual quiz with a round to suit everyone! I use it with my KS3+4 SEND students. It’s easily adapted for differentiation/interest purposes - and to update next year! Rounds: 1: Pictures 2: Music 3: News 4: Riddles 5: Guess the Films by Emojis 6: Books a bonus idioms Pictionary round All answers are on the PowerPoint and there is a team sheet for students to record their answers. I’ve also an extended version with seven questions per round!

Here is a very fun and interactive PowerPoint on the Eightfold Path and reincarnation. I used this for a group of (very RE-reluctant) SEMH boys and it went down a treat- they especially loved the karma quiz. You may want to adapt or create a worksheet for a development task. There is a worksheet where the students fill out each spoke of the dharma wheel. I hope you find it useful, and if you do, I would really appreciate it if you could take the time to leave a review. Thanks so much.

This is a complete lesson aimed at G&T level students that looks at Lady Macbeth and how she could show signs of mental health illness, including PTSD. It encourages higher order thinking and incorporates looking for evidence to match to different diagnoses. There is some reading of theory involved and an element of drama too- the students are to analyse quotes and create a prosecution and defense for Lady Macbeth in a modern court of law. This was an unusual lesson that was graded ‘outstanding’ in an observation. Included in download: PowerPoint lesson Mental illness conditions and symptoms factsheet Detailed lesson plans Writing frames Peer assessment proformas Hexagon matching task - blank to put quotes of your choice in Academic essay

This is a short pastoral scheme of work that I wrote after working with students who had been highlighted as being at risk of extremist behaviour or radicalisation at an inner-city all-boys school. This was in my NQT year. We worked with the Foundation for Peace in Warrington on a 3-day residential and from this, I developed a scheme of work to be carried out whole-school in pastoral time. You can run them in any order you feel is best for your students. The materials are simple, but powerful. Lots rely on games and collaborative activities. I have plenty more information and resources if this is an area that you have an interest in. Please just get in touch. I hope you find it useful. Please leave any feedback or suggestions- it is always greatly appreciated.

This is a really fun and engaging escape room activity with a literacy focus (with some numeracy links too). It is fully editable and straightforward to differentiate if needs be. All resources are ready to print at the end of the PowerPoint. It is highly visual and has gone down a treat with some of my more reluctant learners. I developed this for a whole school (secondary SEND setting) deep learning day, but would suit UKS2 and KS3 students too. Clues include: Synonyms, Homophones, Adjectives more. Answer sheets and teacher answers are included. We used cash boxes with code locks, but you can easily just pretend too!

This is a PowerPoint quiz to go with a set of Jenga blocks (it can also function with three dice and a spinner too- or even just as a quiz). There are three sections: spelling, punctuation and grammar. All slides are visual and multiple choice. The homepage is fully animated so tiles you click on will disappear- no confusion! It’s a lot of fun for end of term or revision activities. As it is on PowerPoint, slides are easily editable for differentiation or colour scheme changes. I use it for a range of KS3+4 SEND classes but it could easily work for upper primary phases, as well as EAL/ESL learning. There are 18 questions for each section as official Jenga has 54 blocks. I just marked a set with equal numbers of blue, green and red dots. My students really love it and I hope yours will too!

Here’s a set of three KS3 assessments for SEND students. They each come with a respective mark scheme that is thorough and can be used confidently by non-English specialists. You could use them to baseline or as an end-of-year test. They are very visual and autism-friendly. I wrote them to take into account the very broad range of levels in our school and to minimise stress, whilst going some way to prepare them for the papers they will eventually experience. They assess reading and writing. In terms of ability, I refer to the old NC levels below as our school’s won’t make sense to anyone outside of it! Paper 1: P7-L1 or thereabouts. (similar in format to an EL1 Functional Skills paper) Paper 2: L2-L6 (similar to an Entry Level Certificate) Paper 3: L7+ (a much-simplified GCSE structure) They are easily tweaked and changed so you can edit them how you like. I hope they will save you an awful lot of time!

This is a complete mini-scheme of work (10 lessons in total), with 32 files included in the pack! It starts with general horror stories with a twist, in which sterotypical genre conventions and characters are studied, moving on to a recap of the gothic and Edgar Allan Poe. The final lesson is planning a gothic story with a gothic generator. This can be taken forward as a written assessment. Each lesson is fully differentiated and resourced, with a broad range of engaging activities, use of ICT and opportunities for creative and collaborative work. Week 1: A Vendetta, Guy de Maupassant, (3 lessons) Week 2 Lamb to the Slaughter, Roald Dahl, (3 lessons) Week 3: The Tell Tale Heart, (3 lessons) Bonus lesson: Frankenstein Characterisation - this lesson was an observation lesson and can stand alone in between any week. It was graded ‘Outstanding’ and is fully resourced and differentiated. Please leave a review if you can. It is massively helpful to the creation of future resources and it would be massively appreciated. If you need anything else or have a query, please contact me directly on slgraham0@gmail.com!

This is a four week SoW that should introduce students to some key GCSE skills and terms. It is fully differentiated and suitable for KS3 (however, it would also be fine to use with UKS2 or lower ability KS4 students). This is a unit created to fit my SEMH school’s Covid response (primary model- all lessons taught by the same teacher), so it is fully explanatory and designed to be taught by teachers of all specialisms! As well as offering a robust introduction to debate skills and structure, the course has lots of opportunities for fun S&L activities and games. (the preview can make the files seem wonky- I promise they’re all fully formatted and are ready to go) In This Pack 90 files including: 1x short term plan 20x bright, fun and highly visual PowerPoints 45 x worksheets (15x HA, MA and LA) 4x weekly marking sheets 1x assessment paper 1x peer-assessment form 1x pupil reflection sheet 1x poster sheets 1x topic divider for books lots of other activities and writing frames! Please leave a review, if you can! It is beyond helpful for development of future resources and I’d really appreciate it.

This is a 21-lesson scheme of work designed for KS4 SEND children on Romeo and Juliet. There is some Shakespearean language but for the vast majority, it is all translated. All lessons are differentiated/have challenge opportunities. My students are predominantly ASD so there is an increased focus on understanding feelings and some reference to the Zones of Regulation. It will work for your lower level students who need more age-appropriate material too. For most lessons, there is a more straightforward PowerPoint in supplement to the other for those classes who need simpler language/themes. These are labelled C10. Most worksheets are at the end of the PowerPoints, ready to print. All lessons are very visual, highly engaging have a range of writing activities, including my personal favourite resource I’ve ever made…Tudor dating app profiles for matching couples of the corresponding classes! There is a bonus stage combat lesson too, which was very fun but might not be suitable for all learners/settings. For Lesson 2, I used this fantastic resource from TES for the insults: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/shakespearean-insult-generator-11555694
