KS1 2018 SATs Reading Gap Analysis Grid / Question Level Analysis - SATs Prep

(0)
These are excel spreadsheets Gap Analysis documents for the 2018 Year Two SATs Papers for Reading. 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 2018 SATs with that score. If it goes Purple, it means that child would have achieved a ‘Greater Depth’ score for that tested subject. I have also included an instructions and document page, linking to a freely available copy of each test, mark scheme and instructions. Additionally, I have included a link to 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. The sheets are set up for 32 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. I take requests for Gap Analysis Grids. Please leave feedback if you like this resource as I am planning to produce more for each SATs paper going forward, as well as CGP Practice Papers. Please remember to rate this resource as I made this to save teachers time. Thank-you.

This resource will save you many hours work when trying to use Assessment for Learning in your class. There are two QLA grids included in one Excel document for help with Gap Analysis. Arithmetic Reasoning Input the data using the marks from the papers and the grid will change colour to show where a child has been successful or not answered a question correctly, or at all. The spreadsheet will auto-calculate how successful the whole cohort has been on particular questions. These are linked directly to the WRM small steps so you can see which lessons and steps need to be revised. 30 children can be entered in this document. The total score thresholds auto-calculate and change colour to help indicate which children are working at approximately an expected standard (EXS) level or a Greater Depth (GDS) level. These thresholds use historical KS2 SATs thresholds to make them as accurate as possible. Please note, some of the cells are locked for editing so that users do not break the spreadsheet functionality. Passwords will not be given out. However, I am more than happy to assist with any adaptations you need. Additionally, I am in no way affiliated with White Rose Maths. No White Rose Maths resources are included in this product. Freely available content is linked to within it.

Gov.uk Sample Papers 2016+ Curriculum (KS2 SATS) Gap Analysis (All subjects)

Gov.uk Sample Papers 2016+ Curriculum (KS2 SATS) Gap Analysis (All subjects)

(3)
UPDATED DUE TO FEEDBACK This is an excel spreadsheet document for the Gov.uk Year Six Sample Papers for Reading, Mathematics (Arithmetic, Reasoning 1 & 2), GPS and Spelling Papers. 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. The spreadsheet is broken down into six pages. Arithmetic, Reasoning 1, Reasoning 2, Reading, GPS and Spelling. I have also included a digital copy of each test, mark scheme and instructions. Additionally, I have included the conversion tables from RAW Score to Scaled Score. These can be found inside the .Zip file. 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. *You are paying for the gap analysis grids, not the freely available tests I have included which can be found at Gov.uk.* 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. Please remember to rate and/or comment on this resource. Your feedback is appreciated. I take requests for Gap Analysis Grids. Please leave feedback if you like this resource as I am planning to produce more for each SATs paper going forward, as well as CGP Practice Papers.

Colour Synonym Flip-pack for desks/tables

(0)
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!
Find sum of interior angles, size of each interior angle, size of each exterior angle for polygons
GalvaniseEDUGalvaniseEDU

Find sum of interior angles, size of each interior angle, size of each exterior angle for polygons

(0)
This is an activity that will challenge all children in a class. Suitable for Years 5-8 (depending on ability). To complete this activity children will need to: - recall the number of sides for polygons down to a dodecagon - use algebra to calculate the sum of the interior angles for each shape - find the size of each interior angle using logic (division) - calculate the size of each exterior angle (180 - interior angle = exterior angle) This will get the room buzzing and you'll see your children using many skills during the same lesson. I have colour banded the activity four ways: -Blue (easiest) -White (Middle) - Green (challenging) - Purple (Mastery) Please comment on and rate this resource.

(0)
This activity will help children meet the Roman Numeral curriculum statements for Year 5 and is excellent revision for Year 6.

Activities are given as both a word document and a pdf. Please comment/rate this resource as all feedback is valuable.
