Illustrated history of tanks. Can be used to cut and match information to pictures as a reading activity or for note taking or for information capture depending on how you set up your lesson.
Information about tanks of the future with illustration that I used for a reading/research activity where my student summarised each section into one or two sentences. you could also make comprehension questions to use with this.
Following of from writing about the description of The Captain at the opening of Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island this activity gets students to write their own description of a pirate encouraging the use of adjectives, similes, metaphors, and speech, with speech marks.
There is then a guided self and peer assessment activities followed by redrafting and final write up. I used this over a sequence of 3 lessons but mainstream learners would progress more quickly.
Following on from my free resource The Captain.
Writing activity based on reading the blurb. One with questions to answer the other asking students to write what the blurb tells them and to explain why they think this.
Picture of the front cover with boxes in which to write your analysis. Differentiated to four different levels from blank to prompts and sentence starters.
I used this for revision for my class. The items sold in the shop are a bit silly/childish because that’s what my class likes but they could quickly and easily be changed with find and replace if you don’t like them.
