I always give children this questionnaire to the children before doing their reports, is invaluable for personal comments having the sheet next to me whilst writing.
Powerpoint used to illustrate what powerful verbs and adverbs are.
Extremely effective for years 3-5.
Due to the popularity of this resource I have included a word bank I have made of adverbs that are very effective in writing.
UPDATE NOV: added Dahl resources.
A unit of work and worksheets I made for children to analyse and produce an 'Oompa Loompa' song based on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
This also has drama / dance links!
A truly unique lesson idea you won't find anywhere.
Please note these are resources to write lyrics to a tune plus lots of other extras, mostly Literacy based. I have now included the backing track (Karaoke version to the original tune.)
UPDATE: I have added a collection of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory resources (including the first 3 book chapters and questions based on this) and additional files for the Oompa Loompa song resource
A document for parents and pupils to sign. Invaluable for E-Safety and security. Editable as I have included my word version of the document. Has gone down well with many schools.
This is a snippet from the top of the document...
Parents / Carers play a crucial role in ensuring that their children understand the need to use the internet / mobile devices in an appropriate way. Research shows that many parents and carers do not fully understand the issues and are less experienced in the use of ICT than their children. The school will therefore take every opportunity to help parents understand these issues through parents’ evenings, newsletters, letters, website / VLE and information about national / local e-safety campaigns / literature. This agreement is aimed at fostering that approach.
Invaluable and guaranteed to save you time.
A collection of some of my best bookmarked sites. These have been collected by me over MANY years and some are literally GEMS! I hope this helps some people out. Please comment if you find useful!
