A revision mat to help students to get their ideas down on paper. An alternative to use instead of the regular PEE. It has a specific focus on language and the effect that the writer may be trying to achieve. This worked especially well with my more able learners.

A quick revision sheet with the different writing forms on it annotated. A visual revision sheet to demonstrate to students the correct layout of each writing form.

I wrote this paragraph for students based on an image of a tiger that we looked at in class. It's good to get students thinking of a 'moving image'.

This resource includes group work questions that focus on the females within the novella: Belle and Fan. The resource also includes an extension task, which involves an empathetic response based on the questions just answered

Exam style question on Bayonet Charge

A WAGOLL that I created and used with my top set year 11 group for the Language focused question.

Descriptive writing WAGOLL with lots of ambitious vocabulary

I have an all boys group and they needed something that they could just memorise lots of language devices with. Each time a mock came around they would forget what things to look for in the language questions.It's colourful too and can be put up in the classroom.

The start of a modelled response to demonstrate to pupils how to write about mood and atmosphere. The model is aimed at B/C borderline students.

I use this report to eradicate low level disruption within the classroom and to ensure that staff feel supported. The incentive is for learners to achieve a minimum amount of points each lesson - not for a prize, but to save themselves from earning an after school detention. The report works best when targets are set with the classroom teacher and communication home is made.

Following grades from a mock exam, students then wrote a message to themselves (a final promise before their actual exam) and then they 'bottled' it up. We then stuck the paper bottles up around the classroom.

This lesson helped me to achieve and outstanding for a recent lesson observation. The PowerPoint looks at an empathetic style exam question and then there is a group work activity. The group work activity is set up so that you have a different character at each different work station, with different questions to get students to think and empathise with each character. Once downloaded, it is really simple to follow.

I designed this structure question for the revision of skills needed for the language paper and the revision of Jekyll and Hyde for the Literature exam.

A handy document for outlining the objectives of your lesson for the teaching assistant There's a space to outline your lesson activities and space for feedback This is really handy if you don't get the time to meet with your TA very often

This is an introduction to writing to advise All of the statements will be relevant to students They could work in groups and write their advice on large sheets of paper When sharing ideas, students could then look to see if they've used modal verbs etc

A simple resource

This is a nice little resource to use that will get students using their inference skills. The students have to match the small section of the text to the relevant illustration. This works well for students cutting them out and sticking them onto A3.

I created this report to support staff in dealing with low level behaviour issues in the classroom. The points can be amended depending on how many lessons you have the student per week, but the general idea is that the students have the incentive to save themselves from obtaining an after school detention based on the points that they achieve each lesson. For example I did: 5 points per lesson, 3 lessons per week. Students had a target of 12 points per week; anything below that they were issued with an after school detention. Staff can deduct the points how they seem fit.

A structured worksheet to help with empathetic writing The resource contains a differentiated version too

A short presentation that structures discussion around spotting the differences in two images and then making inferences.
