Two fantastic resources.
Activity 1 - children create a bar chart from a completed tally chart. (two different versions, differentiated)
Activity 2 - children create a tally chart from a completed bar chart. (two differentiated versions)
Editable differentiated data handling activity for KS1 children or lower KS2 children.
Activity 1 - children complete a tally chart (in this instance, number of letters in their classmates' names - this is editable)
Activity 2 - Create a bar chart from their data.
Lower Ability - Axes are labelled
Higher Ability - Axes are not labelled
Two differentiated activity sheets where children are required to recognise 2D shapes.
Lower Ability - Ten shapes that need to be matched to their names.
Higher Ability - Twelve shapes on a sheet that children need to name (no names given to match).
Included are two activity sheets/worksheets where children need to count up and back in number sequences
- Lower ability (first three numbers given, the rest relies on counting on in 2, 3, 5 etc)
- Higher Ability (sequence of eight numbers, some missing, where children will need to count on and back in order to solve the problem).
Included are two activity sheets/worksheets where children need to count up in steps of five and ten.
- Lower ability (first three numbers given, the rest relies on counting on)
- Higher Ability (sequence of eight numbers, some missing, where children will need to count on and back in order to solve the problem).

A complete bundle of Gap Analysis Grids / QLA (Reading, GPS, Spelling, Arithmetic, Reasoning 1, Reasoning 2) for the May 2016 KS2 SATs assessments. I have also included the actual SATs papers and their mark schemes.
These grids will save you many hours work and will help you quickly identify individual or whole cohort weaknesses in specific areas of the curriculum.
The sheets are set up for 30 pupils but more can be added/deleted and instructions are on the first page/sheet. Some cells are locked/protected in this document but the parts that you need to insert yourself are editable. This is so that the formulas/algorithms do not break and render the spreadsheet’s functionalities as broken.
Please remember to leave feedback as I am aiming to build a reputation as a creator who aims to save teachers time and improve their effectiveness.
Please leave feedback.
These are excel spreadsheets Gap Analysis documents for the May 2016 Year Six SATs Papers for GPS (including spelling).
The sheet totals up the scores automatically and each child’s final score changes colour to reflect their ability.
If their total score for a subject goes green, it means they would have passed the 2016 SATs with that score. If it goes Orange, it means they are within touching distance. If it goes Green with a yellow font, it means that child would have achieved a ‘More Able’ score for that tested subject.
I have also included a digital document, linking to a freely available copy of each test, mark scheme and instructions. Additionally, I have included the conversion tables from RAW Score to Scaled Score.
All a teacher has to do is enter their children’s names and enter the 0’s, 1’s, 2’s or 3’s for each question, which also change colour too for a visual reference. I recommend that a teacher should enter ‘N’ if a child did not attempt that question. This gives an idea of who is not even attempting certain questions, not just whether they got the question wrong.

Fun, fully interactive and challenging with working 50/50 lifelines. An excellent way to assess or embed skills.
There are 15 questions, testing children's ability to multiply and divide by 10, 100 and 1000 (including decimals).
N.B The original logos for Who Wants to be a Millionaire are property of Sony Pictures Television. For this reason they have not been included, but a similar non-trademarked version has.

There are three spreadsheet documents. One for Reading, one for Maths, and one for GPS. They are broken down into individual papers inside.

Last academic year I used these grids to provide targeted feedback and to spot trends. As a result my class were well over National Average for all subjects (much to my relief!)

An editable Facebook Profile page that children can fill in with their details. After they have filled it in, a discussion about what information they’d cross out and not share with a total stranger can take place.
In the template are boxes for:
-A profile Picture
-Name
-Age
-Date of Birth
-School
-About me
-E-mail address
-Phone Number
-Places I usually visit after school
-Address
-Important Life events
Some children could also make ‘dummy’ versions of these for made up people for a classroom or corridor e-Safety/Safer Internet Display.
I have also included a pdf version of the resource for those of you who do not have Publisher.
These handy flip-packs enable children from Years 2-8 to improve their vocabulary choice within writing lessons. To create the final resource all you need to do is cut out each 'colour', laminate them and then hole punch through the hole on each laminated colour. A treasury tag can then be used to keep them all together.
I have one of these on each desk my children sit at and they find them very useful. It also gets the point across that there are many ways of saying the same thing, but some ways are more impactful than others!
Four differentiated worksheets that will help children develop their knowledge of GPS (SPAG), ready for the KS2 assessments.
All have been tried and tested. Set up to challenge children who are working towards, working at the expected standard and even aiming for greater depth.
