I’ve collected together all the materials used for all the past phonics screening checks - 2012 being the first year it was implemented. I thought I would upload them to save others to trouble.
Please see this link for mock paper materials:

I use these for 5 minutes at the start of a maths lesson and children then mark it themselves in less than a 1 minute.
I do put deliberate mistakes on most slides to prompt my class to challenge me if they get a different answer and to promote growth mindset - I’m always learning as well as them. Either I’ve made a mistake and I learn, or they’ve made the mistake and they learn.
Number sentences - differentiated by colour.\n\nGreen (easiest), Blue, Red, Yellow (hardest). I have these laminated and cut up and in different colour number sentence boxes. A really handy resource to throw out for an extension or independent activity,
A resource I've made to help the children in my class recognise and use the pattern 1 more, 1 less, 10 more and 10 less on a 100 square. In addition with their knowledge of partitioning this helps them add and subtract 2 digit numbers.
A variety real and alien words I've used with my class. Laminate and cut out. Children to sort words, add sound buttons to words or find the real words to use in a sentence.
Hi all,
I made this for my school and we use it in combination with separate literacy + numeracy coverage documents + RE weekly themes planning.
Hope I've saved somebody some time.

I spent a long time making these cards so thought I would share to save somebody else the trouble!\n\nThese vocab cards cover all the vocab in the Nottinghamshire 'Maths Project&' followed by some schools.
I use these in my Year 1 class. I stick them onto card (colour coded to their groups) and write on individual targets. The children have them on their tables during Big Write and at the end of the session they show me their work and together we read back the target and decide if they get a 'tick&'. If they achieve 5 tick they get a class reward, have achieved their target and I stick another target over it - just a tab at the top so you can still see their previous targets. Ofsted love them.
I use an A3 version to model partitioning to the class and they each have a smaller version. We also have one on the wall to calculate how many days we have been in school for.
I use two sound strips to support my Year 1 class in their writing at their tables - I borrowed these from the school I did my training placement at, so I cannot take credit for them! The first contains all the sounds your class need to phonetically attempt any word. The second sound strip colour groups different ways to make the same sound. I have also included the word doc I use to assess which sounds the children can read and write. These assessments help inform my teaching in the lead up to the phonics screening test.
Each addition or subtraction fact will match one of 3 options. Can you use your fingers, a number-line or a 100 square to work out the answer, then match a peg to the correct answer?\n\ngreen - to 10 (fingers)\nblue - to 20 (number line)\nred - to 100 ((100 square) - adding/subtracting 1 digit numbers\nyellow - to 100 (100 square) - adding subtracting 2 digit numbers
This is what I've typed up and follow weekly to get in my SEALs coverage. It gives a week by week outline of what to cover each half term for each SEALs section.
I've typed up a variety of simple sentences without full stops. There is then a range of connective cards. The children pick a sentence and a connective and have to extend the sentence with it.
I've turned the Year 5 White Rose - Mastery & Greater Depth into a PPT
I also created a word doc with them on to easily print (multiple on each page)
