Literacy Simply pictures of tattoos with mistakes in! Helps the students to see that other people make mistakes too and gives them 'real life' examples to correct.

Literacy This basic lesson was made and used for a Literacy class for SEN students to give them a frame-work to do: a) some writing to persuade work b) some peer assessment of each other's speeches Feel free to jazz it up!

MFL - German This could be used as a starter. I used it at the start of Year 8 with students with SEN to see what basic things they could remember about the German lessons in Year 7.

Literacy Students have to choose a speech topic and then follow the persuasive writing techniques.

Literacy I have used this prompt card to stick in the front of exercise books for lower sets/SEN. You could also laminate the card, punch a hole in it, and tie it with a piece of string into a student's planner so it is visible in every lesson and can be used as a tool to check over the basics in every piece of work. Have you used capital letters correctly? Have you used punctuation correctly? I find the MINTS acronym to be helpful for capital letters.

MFL - German Not sure why this has uploaded as a picture - hopefully it can be used as a worksheet to help learn school subjects and colours in German.

MFL - German A quick quiz about Germany and German - this could be used at the start of the course to make links to other subjects and to the wider world.

MFL - German Link learning nationalities in German to football teams. You may want to transfer this activity to a powerpoint and use it as an activity that way.

Literacy I prepared this worksheet to help staff navigate through the Clicker 6 software. I laminated the sheets double sided so that they could also be given to new support staff. Obviously the part about saving a Clicker 6 set will be particular to the school, so feel free to edit that. Hope you find it helpful.

Literacy Writing to inform and advice. This lesson was created for a KS3 SEN Literacy group, introducing them to the concepts of information and advice, enabling them to spot the difference and then write their own piece of information and advice writing. Feel free to jazz it up!

Literacy An idea for a bit of extended writing inspired by the lesson on Apostrophes for Possession. When it was clear other work was being finished up or the point of the lesson had been grasped, I put this on the board as an extension for those who had finished. Use of superheroes and celebrities just to capture their imagination!

MFL - German This could be used as a quick starter or as an activity with SEN. I have modelled an example at the top half of the sheet and they have to fill in the gaps for the one below.

Literacy A guideline for students to follow while doing a research task. This can then act as a basis for a further lesson on advertising holidays, or as a speaking and listening task - for example, for Entry Level or Step Up to English. It gives them some structure for learning computer room research skills.

Literacy An A5 worksheet (cut in half) for students to create a visual to remember homophones. I gave each student in the class a different pair of homophones and they had to draw each one and also write a sentence for each one. If you wanted each student to have a complete set you could then photocopy them. This was successful because it allowed my weak writers to understand the concept without having to do lots of writing. A5 is also easier/neater for their books!

MFL - French This was made as an easy visual revision sheet for a student (Year 9) with SEN to help them learn basic French verbs for a test. It was used in conjunction with precision teaching. We also made connections with the words for revision, for example 'mange' sounding a bit like 'munch' and 'habite' sounding like 'habitat'.

Literacy This is presented on a powerpoint but I printed the sheets out in a size suitable to stick in books instead of asking the weak writers to copy them all out. The students can now refer to this page when given feedback about their spelling. Their They're Their Where Were Wear We're Your You're Too Two To

Literacy Just one slide. An idea I had for some extend writing but focusing the sentence starters on our topic of 'Apostrophes of Omission/Contraction.' I just put this screen up as students began to say they were 'finished' with the other tasks.

Literacy Useful for SEN. I print these out and cut up or laminate for students who have trouble recognising capital letter mistakes that they have made in their work. In Literacy, I have cut the strips up and stuck one in every margin of specific exercise books to serve as a reminder. Some students repeatedly put capital letters in the middle of words, for example, and on investigation I found that some of them didn't know what the lower case letter looked like.

Literacy For a quick lesson or to give some inspiration for writing a longer piece, here are 20 ideas that could spark the imagination. Best used for descriptive writing.
