A number of resources that teachers can use at a variety of times throughout the year.

Can be used for variety of purposes, but great as a planning tool before writing or a web to fill in information on what students know about a given topic.

Two slightly different book templates for children to create their own scaffolded book. Includes space for writing, page numbers, and title/author/image on front cover.

Colouring and labelling used to think of ingredients and things needed before writing a set of instructions on how to make a jam sandwich

Read 'Flat Stanley Actvities&' which gives you 20 ideas of activities you may like to do related to the story of Flat Stanley. If you have other ideas please do leave them as a comment so other users can build up a bank of activities.

Headings, sub-headings, picture captions highlighted on example leaflets

Used on display, children write captions about any topic. We linked it to Rights Respecting, took photos of children standing to the side and then the speech bubble coming from their mouths.

Just to use for ideas. I have copied and pasted the last, general comment that I used on the end of year report to parents. Might just give NQTs a few ideas if you're stuck. They are generally very positive in line with the expectations of my current school.\n\nAlso some general strengths and targets (again which my current report form asks for). Sorry it&'s slightly patchy - it&';s done for my class and their levels.

A silly story captured in screen shots. Watch the film at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csdZQZmgKfQ \n\nI watched this short cartoon with my class who then cut the small images out, stuck them into their books and retold the story next to it with a focus on punctuation. They really enjoyed it because the story is so silly! Pictures can be used for many different activities but will hopefully save you some time!

Such a fabulous animated film - www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGxmschhkNg A fun week of English planning with resources including models for writing. An opportunity for extended writing around a meaningful and interesting topic. Suitable for Y1 - Y6. I wrote this plan for a whole-school English week to give teachers a break. Pupils access the activities at their own level. If you have any questions or need any support, send me a message and I'll do anything I can to help. My resources use English spelling. Please do review any resources that you download - many thanks!
