After hours of searching for differentiated worksheets for children in Year 3 to plan an informal letter in role of a character, I ended up making my own. The worksheets are all differentiated for HA, MA, LA and SEN and have differentiated Success Criteria at the top of the worksheet. HA have to include; Feelings, questions, contractions as well as plan all the key features, including the three main paragraphs. MA have to include; Feelings and questions as well as plan all the key features, including the three main paragraphs. LA have to include; Feelings and questions as well as plan all the key features, including the three main paragraphs. For this group the Address was already written. SEN have to include; Feelings as well as plan some the key features, including a main paragraph. I hope this saves you lots of time!

This is a newspaper report ready for the Year three class to complete. We have read the story 'Stone Girl Bone Girl' and we have studied features of newspaper reports, identifying them in real newspapers and other newspaper report texts using highlighters. It is now time for the chn to write their own, based on Mary Anning finding the sea monster fossil. For the more able group I have left this blank - they have to include a catchy heading, by line, strapline, quotes, paragraphs, caption for the photo etc. Then I have differentiated the other groups where some have to think of the strapline / introduction, some have the strapline given, some have the heading given and some have to think of it themselves etc. All worksheets have a photo of the fossil on there. Easy to edit and will save heaps of time! The title of your newspaper will have to be changed as I have done this one to suit our school.

This is a simple timeline for children to complete. The first timeline has 5 boxes to complete and the second has six boes to complete. It can be sued for history, maths, ordering routines, stories etc! I have used it for PSHE to order the changes of the children (photos) over the last 5 years! Looks great in their books. This can be easily edited and will save time!

This is a resource where the children have to create a persuasive poster on the Caribbean. There are two photos of a Caribbean beach which the children can choose from. Then the children use the boxes provided to write their persuasive information on and cut out and stick on the poster. I encouraged the chn to use all of the features of persuasive posters e.g. alliteration, bossy verbs, slogans, rhetorical questions, facts etc. They loved this lesson. I also enlarged the sheets to A3. Will save lots of time!

This is the success criteria for dictation. The success criteria is differentiated for HA, MA and LA. Simple print out and cut around the boxes and then stick into books. Use a highlighter to identify which of the success criteria they have achieved. This saves loads and loads of marking time!

This is a slide which introduces the LO; To write a powerful description. It is all based on writing a powerful description on the topic of a forest. There are various photographs of forests that the chn can 'think, pair and share' on what they see, hear, feel etc. The photographs can then be annotated. There is a forest description already written that can be read and discussed with the class, and then finally the Success criteria is shown to discuss with the chn how they will be successful. Will save time I'm sure!

This is a really handy resource I use in Year One. During guided reading sessions, several of my groups will read their guided reading books independently and then work through these questions.

The success criteria are also included in the slide and a question at the end asking the chn to explain what they have learned today!
