<p>This story focuses on a bee who needed to work on their kindness and teamwork. It is a good starting point for teachers to discuss with new classes how children interact with one another. This can then be developed further to a discussion about class rules/expectations.</p>

<p>Useful for children who need practice building up to reading longer texts. These are phonic-based as much as possible. It is recommended that you look at question words as useful words prior to starting the assessments.</p>

<p>A pack of differentiated reading assessments to suit varying needs. Each assessment is phonic based as much as possible. It would be useful to look at some useful words prior to reading. These useful words could be the question words which the children will come across when reading.</p>

<p>Use a dabber or crayon to mark all of the words which read the same as the central word. Practice writing the key word on the lines then write in bubble writing or use foam letters in the empty box. These 18 sight word spotters are phase 2 HFWs or tricky words.</p>

<p>This 8 slide resource could be used as writing prompts on a keyring on desks or as part of a display.</p>
