work through each of the levels in order with the whole class
use the levels to target varying abilities within the class
use extra versions of tasks to set as follow-up homework
where pupils are inclined to copy, use different versions of worksheets to ensure independent working
extra versions of tasks can be set as assessment at the end of a unit
Learning objectives are given at the beginning of each sheet.

A good resource for KS2 for the period from October to New Year. The non-fiction text is about the problems caused by fireworks in the period lasting from just before Hallowe’en to just after New Year. It is accompanied by a 20 mark comprehension exercise with a mark sheet.
The text would make an excellent starting point for class debate, and for a writing assignment on balance argument or persuasive writing.
The 15 slide PowerPoint is on capital letters and covers 14 cases when they should be used. It is accompanied by an extract from the reading text which has been stripped of all capital letters.
This worksheet could be used for classes from KS2 and beyond. Even more useful, perhaps, for staff training. The subjunctive appears on the curriculum nowadays, but there are few adults who are confident in recognising or using it.
This resource has been written for KS2 and contains enough material for at least one lesson. It consists of a grammar exercise and a creative writing task.
On each of 10 slides of the PowerPoint, there is a Hallowe’en themed sentence with the verb in the present tense. The first task is for pupils to change the verb to the past tense and then write it out.
The sentences are sequential, and create the beginning of a Hallowe’en story. The writing task is simply to finish the story.
Follow-up work could consist of editing and improving the story.
Worksheet on using the past subjunctive and recognising the difference between subjunctive and indicative mood. It’s in the National Curriculum f or KS2 English, but would be equally useful for KS3/4 and for staff training. Linked presentation on the past subjunctive is available separately.

The homophones 'there, their and they’re are difficult for many pupils to master, and they benefit from regular revisiting.
This resource is aimed at KS2 and KS3,but would also be valuable for groups of older pupils (and sometimes staff) who are still a bit unsure.
The animated presentation begins with a slide which shows how all three homophones are used. It is teacher controlled, so can be shown a line at a time to allow for discussion and explanation as required. It is followed by 15 animated slides where a sentence with a blank is displayed so that pupils can either respond orally, or have a go at writing answers on individual white boards. The answer is shown at the click of the mouse.
A text file is provided explaining why there is some confusion over whether ‘there’ (in ‘there is’) is sometimes classified as a pronoun.
There is a set of 40 accompanying cards for printing and possibly laminating. Each shows a sentence containing a blank, similar to those on the presentation. The task is a multiple choice one, requiring pupils simply to fill in the letter a,b or c corresponding to the word needed to fill the blank. A pupil sheet is provided for this, as well as a teacher answer sheet.
