Hi there!
Here's a new resource pack- it's a pretty prescriptive and detailed set of resources that cover 4 days worth of work, along with challenges to boot.
Included
- 3-way differentiated guided reading booklet including the following
*Day 1- predictions based on blurb and front cover
*Day 2- author's intention through language and 'connotation'
*Day 3- prepositions text marking and identifying
*Day 4- decoding shakespearean quotes- prediction and answers.
Learning objectives outlined on the sheets, and marking area prescribed.
I used this with my year 3/4 class, but is easily adapted for 5/6.
This pack includes 4 activities.
The main activity has three tasks that involve classifying words into 1 of 7 categories. This opens up for lots of conversation and debate, which is a great basis for a lesson.
The other three activities are mazes where children must get from the top row of the word-table to the the bottom by linking words of that type.
I hope this proves helpful!

Hi there!
At my school, the children’s homework generally all leads toward a final goal of creating a book or portfolio. I find these homeworks are great to incite excitement in a topic, to embed organisational skills and very fun to mark!
Hi there!
This is a 7-week homework project that I use for my year 5 English class.
The children absolutely love it because it allows for creative freedom and using art skills in English homeworks.
I find projects work much better in getting children hooked on a topic and, consequently, there work is so much more interesting and impressive.
This project’s about a theft that has occurred in Harcourt Manor- they need to become detectives to work out who the thief was…

Writing prompt/stimulus based on finding a mysterious book. Teaching PowerPoint and 4-way differentiated planning sheets included in this 22-Page pack.
Assessing writing is a subjective nightmare! With this independent writing assessment stimulus, children can engage in an exciting and mysterious plot centered around a magical book found in the school library. As teachers, we can decide which planning sheet most accurately matches the children’s abilities or targets and the writing they produce can be assessed against national or state standards.
With Talk for Writing opportunities throughout the PowerPoint, children can discuss their use of vocabulary, ideas for plot and explore their characters’ emotions in peer work or small groups.
This can be delivered to a single class, year group or whole-school cohort, or even as an extra-curricular Creative Writing club task!
Included in this download:
18-page teaching PowerPoint
4 different planning sheet options in PDF format
5 fonts for editing purposes
Editable versions of PPT and worksheets to suit your classes’ needs!

Hi All!
At the private school that I work at, we do Writing Portfolios to assess the children’s English skills 3 times a year.
Each time we do one, we have a stimulus presentation and we all use the same planning sheet.
This can be used from years 3-6 and is differentiated accordingly.
There’re 2 different planning sheets to suit different abilities and to ensure the planning aspect is standardised across the school.
Enjoy!
Hi Everybody! Here’s a pack full of Year 3-level (yet differentiated for ability) resources that are focussed on grammar and writing. They’re Egypt themed, too!
I hope this helps. Any questions, shoot them my way.
