Positive & Negatives of Daydreams Writing Activity

Great worksheet for children to practice their formal writing skills. This sheet has a real-life letter in to a columnist regarding daydreams and what they mean etc. You may need to give students some knowledge on daydreams or allow them to work it out for themselves in private research. Your students job is to write a reply using correct letter structure, tone, and punctuation. Includes brief success criteria for content and writing. Hope you like it:)

Literature Revision Checklist

Great checklist to give your students for each book so they can see what they do know/need to improve on - great for checking their understanding and helpful for when planning revision sessions. Students are asked to write the book title, a summary of the plot, answer 7 questions using yes/no tick boxes and then they need to write 2 areas in which they need to prioritise and 3 areas where they feel comfortable and just need to recap. Hope you like it - so useful!:)

One Word Learn! - For Teaching New English Vocabulary

(0)
Miss Andrew’s One Word Learn! Is a brilliant and effective way of getting secondary students to learn new vocabulary regularly. The PowerPoint is colourful and funky! The idea is to introduce 1 new word at the start of each English lesson (could also be used as a house or extra-curricular activity). You would spend about 7-10 minutes, start to finish on this. Workbook included in this download. For each word there are 4 slides: Title slide: Introduces the word Definition slide: Gives definition of the word from Oxford Dictionary Example slide: Two sentences showing the context in which you could use the word in Activity slide: A wide range of English activities to complete using your new words; such as synonyms, antonyms, sentences, word search, similes, metaphors etc. There are 10 words included in this PowerPoint and 41 slides in total. Our whole school use it and the progress and feedback has been extremely positive! I aim to upload a new PowerPoint every 2 weeks. Please let me know if there are any words you’d like to see! Hope you like it!:) ON SALE FOR THE FIRST WEEK!
