<p>A differentiated spelling resource focusing on variety of sounds. An opportunity for children to demonstrate spelling of word, understanding of the word, identifying type of word (adverb, verb, adjective, noun), and grapheme marking too if desired. Can be played at a whole class level or in individual groups.</p> <ol> <li>Teacher reads the word</li> <li>Children write the word on a white board and grapheme mark (if appropriate)</li> <li>Teacher gives group three options of the meaning</li> <li>Children write A,B or C</li> <li>Teacher asks whether it is a noun, adjective, verb or noun.</li> <li>Children get points for each correct aspect</li> </ol> <p>Teacher can be replaced by another student/child in the classroom to make it more independent. Have also attached an answer sheet, however, I often just have them write it down on a white board.</p>

<p>Included are 6 station posters that can be used individually or across the classroom as rotational activities. They are used for editing writing and up-leveling work across the writing curriculum.<br /> I have used in variety of ways, but children go from station to station with the aim to gain as many stars possible at that table. They immediately edit the work in front of them to gain the stars, and there is an optional purple challenge box for them to add to their work. Teacher can be stationed at one table and focus on all children that come to that table in a rotational manner.</p>

<p>A learning grid differentiated, for children to explore a variety of strategies when adding. It covers using 100 square, counting beads and arrow adding which is essentially adding tens and then the units.<br /> Children roll a dice twice, and land of specific square (coordinates) and must answer that question, however, must be showing the strategy/working out. After that, I give them a blank learning grid to which they then write the answer.</p>

<p>A learning grid differentiated, for children to explore a variety of strategies when multiplying. It covers using arrays, mentally and grouping.<br /> Children roll a dice twice, and land of specific square (coordinates) and must answer that question, however, must be showing the strategy/working out. I give them a blank learning grid to which they then write the answer, and also have the answer sheets ready for them to self-mark throughout activity.</p>
