<p>Designed by a Year 6 teacher and Reading SATs marker, this resource contains a PowerPoint of 10 reading texts with related questions, written in the style of 3 mark SATs questions, which require children to explain their answers using evidence from the text. It also includes answer prompts for children to use when responding to questions, both orally and in writing. All activities are aligned to the KS2 national tests-the questions are written in the style of recent tests, and the question stems are compiled from analysis of past SATs questions.</p> <p>Teaching the children to use the PEP (Point+Evidence+Point) strategy will be useful for these more difficult question types.</p> <p>Texts include fiction, non-fiction and poetry, as well as a mixture of less and more challenging texts. These resources are ideal to use as regular short-burst reading practice for Year 6 preparing for KS2 SATs. They can be used as part of whole-class or small group reading lessons or guided reading sessions. All are fully editable.</p> <p>The resources focus on the specific content domains (the comprehension elements of the national curriculum as assessed by KS2 English reading tests) related to inference, authorial intent and explanation:</p> <p>2d make inferences from the text / explain and justify inferences with evidence from the text<br /> 2e predict what might happen from details stated and implied<br /> 2f identify / explain how information / narrative content is related and contributes to meaning as a whole</p>

<p>Great for revision and practice during the weeks before SATs, or to consolidate the topic of co-ordinates.<br /> Year 6 Curriculum objectives: describe positions on the full coordinate grid (all 4 quadrants), draw and translate simple shapes on the coordinate plane, and reflect them in the axes</p>

A set of ten maths tests, to last approximately 20 minutes, using past SATs questions. The tests cover all National Curriculum areas, and assess children working at the Year 6 Expected Standard. Questions include more accessible, and more challenging questions in a style similar to those of the National Tests. Tests 9 and 10 are marginally more challenging for children, and all tests offer opportunities for problem solving and reasoning. <br /> <br /> The resource could be used weekly to monitor progress of Year 6 pupils,or more regularly as general practice or revision in weeks leading up to SATs. They can be used to identify gaps in children's knowledge and to use as a basis from which to plan intervention.<br /> <br /> All tests are uploaded as Microsoft Word documents, and therefore are fully editable.

Year 6 curriculum objective: use simple formulae<br /> <br /> This resource is great for teaching this objective as part of 'algebra' in the National Curriculum requirements for Year 6. Should be used as a sequence of scaffolded lessons. Ideal for a mastery approach to mathematics teaching. Could also be used with lower attaining KS3 students.<br /> <br /> Includes reasoning and problem solving opportunities for children, as well as appropriate scaffolds for lower attaining pupils. Well aligned with the standard of the KS2 SATs tests.<br /> <br /> Fully editable.

<p>Designed by a Year 6 teacher for Year 6 children, this resource contains 10 past-SATs question mats relating to all areas assessed in the Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling SATs test.</p> <p>These resources are ideal to use as regular short-burst GPS practice for Year 6 preparing for KS2 SATs. They can be used as part of whole-class or small group lessons or guided sessions. Extension activities could include asking children to create their own similar question mats for future classes, or completing a mat full of mistakes and asking the children to correct the errors. They are also useful to use to teach children test technique or to draw children’s attention to common errors made.</p> <p>The resources focus on all areas of the national curriculum as assessed by KS2 GPS tests.</p>
