A spread sheet with four tabs - the first 100 HFWs, the next 200 HFWs, new statutory spelling list for years 3&4 and new statutory spelling list for years 5&6. Formatted to have 30 names sideways across the top so you can tick off the spellings given/learned/used etc. Only made it for my own use really but figured I may as well share - save someone 10 minutes!
A sheet to cut and laminate - the top two rows have five little ducks and the numbers below them, then you have a row of ducks to cut out individually and stick on top of the first lot so you can see how many ducks you have left when you remove one as you sing :-)
12 weeks worth of graduated HFW spellings and handwriting patterns. Each document has four pages for differentiated homework. \n\nI used these for a year 2/3 class who covered P6 - L4.\n\nI have used a font that I paid for at home, you may need to change it to your school font.
This contains an A4 page with 3 or 4 questions for every chapter of 'The Secret Mountain&' By Enid Blyton, except for the last four chapters that have blank pages for the children to use their own ideas and prove they have developed an understanding of different ways of showing you&';ve read a text! \n\nThe book I used is a dual edition 'Secrets: The Secret Mountain & The Secret of Kilimooin&'. If you use a different version of the book you may need to change the page numbers in the headings.\n\nGood for more able younger readers.\nAll the questions are linked to AFs.
Little circles labelled 'independent', 'group work', 'paired work', 'teacher' and 'teaching assistant'. To laminate, cut out and stick on the list of groups so that children know what level of support they have for each session.
Just because 'Word' is a pain to use and get the right size and the right borders - here are a bunch of pages of random drawer lables including about 30 for names, 'whiteboards' 'literacy resources' and other assorted classroom classics! Just type over what you want.
A plan for making shadow puppets with a powerpoint to project onto a screen, also link to where you can find a video (which I just used the audio from) to give you sound if you don't want to write your own script. Plus 2 evaluation sheets, one for those with more precice handwriting and another for the more sprawling style!
After discovering my new class had poor investigation skills, I set up an investigation to do every week.
There's also an assessment sheet which I gave to all the adult helpers to mark when any child used any of the skills.
A quick screen print with arrows showing how to press 'file' and then choosing &'save as&'; in the drop down menu in word. I stuck it above the computer table to remind them how to.
Template spreadsheet for tracking achievement, green for acheived, orange for partly, red for not, grey for absent. you can see at a glance which groups or idividuals are managing or need pushing by their overall achievement in the subject. It's labelled as maths but can be used for any subject.
