This resource is linked to Little Wandle. Worksheets have been created linked closely to the daily phonics lessons. The worksheets can also be used alongside any phonics scheme. Children can practice the key graphemes, phonetically plausible words that can be sounded out and they are linked to the key daily taught graphemes, tricky words, and sentences for the week. Within this resource all five weeks are provided for the term.
These worksheets have been created to reinforce the lessons taught so that children can practice and embed their new knowledge.
Sheets can be used for homework, and extended in-class activity, or a morning starting activity.
Great for EAL or SEND learners, as the sheets can also be adapted to meet the needs of individual learners.
There is a Word document so that the worksheets can be easily adapted if required, and a PDF document for easy printing. Worksheets are designed to be printed double-sided, where the first sheet has the key reading phonics activities, and the second sheet is for the children to use to practice writing the keywords and sentences.

This is a complete resource with a SMART notebook presentation and differentiated worksheets. It is designed to teach children how to use capital letters correctly and more confidently. This resource is linked to the story ‘Handa’s Surprise’.
The SMART notebook presentation follows a series of skills as to how to use capital letters correctly.
Firstly, the children identify that a sentence always starts with a capital letter.
Secondly, the children work on how proper nouns always have a capital letter.
Finally, the children work on the pronoun I and how it is always a capital letter wherever in the sentence.
There is a starter activity where the children connect the uppercase letters to the lowercase letter. This will help children to identify and link uppercase and lowercase letters.
The main activity allows the children to identify where to place the capital letters for the start of the sentence, proper nouns, and the pronoun I.
The worksheets come in two different fonts: SasoonPrimaryInfant and Letter Join Air No Lead 40. Worksheets are differentiated where the LA can have the sheet where the prompts for capital letters are highlighted, allowing them to work more independently.
The Word document allows worksheets to be adapted easily.
The SMART notebook can also be easily adapted.
