This resource is twenty-four literacy Do Nows I have used with year 7, 8 and 9 English classes. There are four copies on each page so they can be printed, cut up and handed out at the beginning of each lesson.
Topics include homophones, continue the story from a starting sentence, continue an argument, unscrambling literary terminology before writing examples, guessing the meaning of words from context, finding alternative words to build vocabulary, and improving sentences that have problems with them. Instructions for the students are on each exercise and they get on and do them in silence with no teacher intervention.

Great starter ideas thanks - will definitely use the homophone starters.
