This resource includes 4 varied tasks to appeal to a full range and ability of learners on the topic of word classes and nouns. The resource concludes with a self assessment of how secure the learner’s knowledge is based on a final task. A separate resource is included for all teachers/supply/parents to use to help guide their students in the right direction with regard to answers and to offer a definitive right/wrong once complete. This is a perfect activity for completion during tutor time or at the beginning/end/challenge task for downtime as it can be picked up and put away. This is the first of a series of literacy resources like this that I will be rolling out over the next few weeks, so if you like this, do follow me here or on Twitter @jomarsh1.

This resource bundle includes an Assembly based on the Holocaust Memorial Trust theme of ‘the power of words’ and considers both the ethos of the Trust in honouring survivors whilst also focusing on the importance of ‘words’ to ensure discrimination and prejudice are eliminated from our society. This assembly is interactive with a link to a video about the latest recordings of Eva Schloss and offers students some practical ways to get involved with Holocaustian projects post assembly. The assembly is fully scripted and ready to use and is accompanied by a handout about some of the projects mentioned in the assembly for tutors to explore during tutor/PSHE time for potential ongoing individual and whole school involvement.

This activity uses 'Fallen Puzzles' to engage students in a High Order Revision Activity, which is fun and challenging, but due to the nature of the High Order will support longer term retention of these quotations in preparation for the exam. The activity is clearly explained and modelled and key quotations range from short to longer to suit all abilities. If you like this please do leave a review and I will make more for other texts.. (Thank you!)
