We study the Storm Unicorn by Pie Corbett during literacy. Leading up to this we look at other examples before the children write their own (non-chronological) report with the aid of the text. This is a re-write of the Storm Unicorn called the Time Unicorn. Sub-titles have been added in as we encourage the use of them for better organisation. There is also another report by Pie Corbett called the Frost Unicorn which we use in addition to this as another example report text. I also have another re-write in my store called the Candy Unicorn. The document is fully editable so you can change parts as you please.

This worksheet contains the five elements of a story along one side and on the other are paragraphs from an example adventure story called, Amy’s Adventures in Egypt. Children need to read the excerpts and match them up with the correct part of the story. *This document is fully editable so you can edit things as you please. *

This spelling homework template is made up of two sides. The first side involves learning through written repetition of the ten provided spelling words. The second side involves using those spelling words in context. We use this to set out our weekly spelling words for the children to complete at home, leading towards a spelling/hand-writing test the following week. *The template is, of course, fully editable! *

This worksheet involves questions that relate to the text of Pie Corbett’s Storm Unicorn. The questions cover basic recall and then move onto more advanced comprehension skills such as inference. The final section leaves a space for the children to attempt to draw the Storm Unicorn based on the details of the report. It encourages children to think flexibly and relates the plight of the unicorn with that of rhino’s. It also opens up a wealth of discussion surrounding that point too. I usually use this after the children have read, mapped and analysed the report in detail first. It acts a good gauge for their understanding. *The document is fully editable so you can change questions as you please. *

This worksheet contains a short biography on the life of Amelia Earhart who we study about in our flight unit. The mistakes cover both spelling and punctuation problems as well as grammar issues. The final section involves a word search puzzle with key words from the text. The children take on the roles of a teacher in this exercise as they attempt to find as many mistakes in the biography as they can. They are also encouraged to make corrections. Try and big up the role reversal aspect with some acting for greater engagement in the activity. Children also enjoy using highlighters or red pens for this.

In this activity, children are expected to take an unknown board game called Minefield, figure out a way to play it and write the gaming instructions. The main board is provided with counters and peace signs. This works well as a team activity, as a lot of discussion needs to go into figuring out what the game play and any other equipment will be before the rules are written up. The children really loved this challenge, especially when they knew there were actually no right or wrong ways (or any way in existence) to play it. The main objective though is to try and design the game play in such a way that is both straight-forward, challenging and fun. Lots of critical thinking skills involved in the discussion stages of the activity. It’s amazing how many variants of how to play the game that the children come up with. Of course, in the end, they all get to play each others version and can decide themselves which one they enjoy the best. I hope your children love doing this activity as much as mine did!

This is a first person story about a volcanic eruption. Words are missing throughout the text and it’s the children’s job to fill in the blanks making sure it’s the correct part of speech (as stated in brackets) and also that it makes sense. This is an explosive Mad Lib! The first page of the document contains form fields so children can easily click and fill in the blanks. The second page is for printing off for children to fill in. Because of this, the worksheet is suitable for children to complete either online or offline. *Please note: The form functions don’t work in Google Docs, so it’s best to share the lined version instead. * Mad libs are a great way for children to personalise stories whilst learning about parts of speech and proper grammatical structure! I hope you enjoy the often crazy versions your children come up with!

A set of three wheels that have a rotating arrow which starts spinning when you click and stops when you click again. It can be used for selecting random students as well as letters and numbers. Each spinning wheel is fully editable in Microsoft Powerpoint, so you can add in your own names or other criteria for selecting randomly. The children love it and I usually ask one of them to say when to stop the spin.

There are two copies of the worksheet. The first contains form fields so children can easily click and fill in the blanks in a program such as Microsoft Word.

Mad libs are a great way for children to personalise stories whilst learning about parts of speech and proper grammatical structure.

Note: This resource is fully editable so you can change any part of it as you please.

A fill in the blank exercise for a text about, ‘When I’m Older’. Children enjoy making their own hopes and predictions about what their life will be like in 20 years time. An example text is included to give the children an idea of how to complete their own. It also includes lots of adjectives and children should be encouraged to add some to their own text to make it more interesting. The document includes 2 copies of the worksheet. The first contains form fields so children can easaily click on the boxes and fill in the blanks. The second is meant to be printed so children can write their answers on the lines provided. My children really enjoyed this activity and it is very insightful to read and share with the rest of the class.

A four slide presentation containing a variety of pictures and symbols to map out the story of Pie Corbett’s Storm Unicorn. After familiarising themselves with the text, children should be able to re-read the story using only the story map. It makes for an interesting challenge.

This is a profile / short biography of a Vietnamese woman named Ms Mihn Dao. I use it early on in my biographies unit to both ask questions about and then draw up facts into sentences using a range of time prepositions and connectives. It serves as a good basis for the children to plan their own autobiography and then their own fictional biography.

This fully editable board game adds fun for children who are learning to read. For this package, I’ve split it into two games. The first is a set of CVCC words and the second is a set of CCVC words. There are 21 spaces in which you can add any word you wish for children to practice reading. The board game is also A3 size so the words are easy to see. The idea is that 2-4 children take turns rolling the dice. If they are able to read the word that they land on then they can remain there, if not then they move back to where they just were before they rolled. This is one of my personal favourite resources, not just because both I and the children love it, but also because you can enter in any word set you like. I even play this with my son and it really encourages him to focus on pronouncing the words as perfectly as he possibly can.
