This scheme of work is heavily resourced :) Lots of PowerPoints included too to aid your teaching

A simple resource

Reading book log with quick peer recommendations spelling logs to help students target common spelling errors Reading log to record page numbers etc

These are the PowerPoints that I rolled out to my school as part of my role as whole school Literacy co-ordinator. The task on each PowerPoint should last about 25 minutes; the remainder of the lesson spent reading for enjoyment. Within each PowerPoint you have a differentiated task for year 7,8 &9. Printable resources included I have more week-by-week focuses; look in my shop :)

I use this sheet with my year 11s to help them prioritise their revision. Simple but effective.

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.

A handy revision sheet with the conventions of each transactional writing type on there. The back of the sheet has suggested openings and closings for students.

Looking at where conflict arises this PowerPoint specifically highlights language and scaffolds learners' responses through questioning

Activities to look at the graphological features of leaflet writing and then the planning and writing of their own leaflets

Different activities to support the more able learners and stretch and challenge them.

This resource gets students to think about their ideas based on these poems before actually writing them up A colourful and engaging resource

Exactly as the title says - I used this with my bottom sets.

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.

The 1st PowerPoint can be delivered in a number of ways and there are many questions based around the main characters that enable learners to empathise with them. The 2nd PowerPoint then focuses on the female characters and the planning and writing of an empathetic response. This could possibly be used over 3 lessons.

This lesson looks at a past exam question that focuses around the songs and music in the play Blood Brothers. You can access the CD for the songs for free on YouTube to accompany this lesson.
