This is a 4x4 bingo game which I did for my yr 1 and they really loved it. Just stick pictures of 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p and 50p coins on a dice and they can play. Resource includes 6 different sheets (enough for a table group).

A very quick worksheet on a powerpoint that printed in A3 will allow children to map the 32 participating countries - there is a key at the bottom with numbers so children can colour in the country and instead of writing its long name, just number it. powerpoint can be used as lesson starter as all countries are listed again there (with their flags) and a political world map is attached for explaining how to map. Enjoy/

Use the map in the powerpoint for children to find the castles pictured in the word document. They then use the map they have to mark on their own blank map where the castles are.

Use this to introduce motte and bailey castles and get the children to discuss where the best loction would be to build one.

Made this sheet for my year 1 and 2 team to help them with self-marking and peer-marking in English lessons. I laminated these posters and put them in their table boxes where they can easily use them. Also, as it is very visual, it is suitable for EAL learners.

These handouts are differentiated and all about the Simpsons! Children add apostrophes and re-write sentences using them. Learning objective on the handouts too. 2 pages per ability.

Lesson 1:Features of a report. Show children a report on the board. Talk about its features eg headings, subheadings, paragraphs and their jobs. Then give children a cut up report and ask them to put it back together and label the features. Challenge is answering questions about it. Eg What do I find in the third paragraph? (see notebook)Lesson 2:Vocabulary used in a report. Show children the report from yesterday. Go through what adjectives, connectives and openers are and ask children to investigate the report for VCOP. Record on sheet in mixed ability partners. Then write down one opener, adjective etc and make sentences about nocturnal animals orally.

Resource for children who find it difficult to work independently and 'get stuck'. EAL friendly. Can be laminated. Children tick when they have achieved a certain step / task.

A quick picture comprehension as Easter fun for my Year 2 class. Differentiated two ways but could easily be adapted more by changing the questions.\nHave fun.

EAL friendly map symbols resource. PDF: Introduce to class that this is a seaside map (slightly adapted) and get them to find map symbols in paris. IWB: Talk about symbols with children. Word Doc: Children can now find the photos for the symbols and the correct words. They match them.

I made this senses mat for my year 2 to help them use adjectives when they were describing what their senses explored. Hope it helps. EAL friendly resource.

Year 2 resource to revise features of reports. We used the report as basis for all our work. First lesson - Cut up report and get children to stick it back together using the features. Second lesson - Work in mixed ability partners and find VCOP in the report's text. Third lesson - Differentiated comprehension questions and cloze for the lower able. Good SATS revision on vocabulary and features to use when writing a report as we have to write about nocturnal animals...

I use this with all three of my SEN children. On a monday morning they come to school and it's on their desk. They then choose reward/treat for Friday afternoon that they will get if they have mostly ticked all sessions on the timetable for the week. It works really well and can easily be adjusted. Their 1:1 are very good at helping them reflect about their work.

This is my medium term plan and a workbook I created about Going for Goals. Loosely based on SEAL for Y3/Y4. Workbook makes sense when used with planning. Enjoy!

This is a document we produced to use for our guided reading sessions according to the new curriculum. It splits all curriculum objectives for each year group into:1. Decoding2. Comprehension / Retrieval3. Inference / Relate4. Language for Effect5. Themes and Conventions6. OthersEasy to use. One sheet per guided reading group :) Or could be adapted to make student individual booklets.

Planning and some activity sheets for non-chronological reports for year 2.Mostly differentiated.
