A powerpoint containing activities for transition week in a SEND/Entry Level setting.
I used this powerpoint with a class of KS3 learners with SEND. It lasted approximately 3 days with lots of breaks in between.

Class logo
Class rules
Best piece of writing
How do you feel about starting a new setting
A selection of free sheets that can be used to support awarding body assessments:

AFL sheets
Feedback sheets
Blank witness statements/photographic evidence sheets
Simplified instructions and labelling activity for planting seeds.
Symbol supported instructions for planting seeds
Originally used in a P16 SEND setting with a group of young people following an employability programme focused on Horticulture.
This resource is an assessment work book covering the learning objectives and assessment criteria of the unit.
It contains a range of activities designed to specifically meet assessment criteria as well as blank witness statements and space for photographic evidence. Each sheet has a handy ‘assessment for learning emoji’ for learners to self assess as well as a final sheet for learners/assessors to make comments and to plan next steps.
The resource was originally used in a SEND school Post 16 setting but it could equally be used with entry level learners in a range of different contexts.
It is in WORD format to allow for ease of adapting to individual settings.
The booklet was designed to ensure the ASDAN unit was achieved however ASDAN were not involved in its creation.
I hope that it saves you some valuable time.

Rhyming Sensory Poem/Story on the theme of Spring
The activities in this unit of work are interactive and promote learners’ understanding of spring through sensory and communication activities.
The resources contain some real photographs so are appropriate for learners of older ages but can equally be used with younger children. Some are illustrations, but I believe could still be used with older age groups.
All the activities are easy to deliver and simple to resource. They will not require extensive looking for equipment/items as most are in cupboards and around homes.
Unit Contents
Sensory Story in WORD and Powerpoint format. The powerpoint includes picture slides.
Photo pack in PDF format using the images from the powerpoint.
Further photo pack showing winter /spring images (setting the scene pictures)
Prompt Sheet containing ideas for how the story could be used for different activities and the things that are needed
