Leveled Comprehension Questions for Pie Corbett's, The Storm Unicorn

(0)
This worksheet involves questions that relate to the text of Pie Corbett’s Storm Unicorn. The questions cover basic recall and then move onto more advanced comprehension skills such as inference. The final section leaves a space for the children to attempt to draw the Storm Unicorn based on the details of the report. It encourages children to think flexibly and relates the plight of the unicorn with that of rhino’s. It also opens up a wealth of discussion surrounding that point too. I usually use this after the children have read, mapped and analysed the report in detail first. It acts a good gauge for their understanding. *The document is fully editable so you can change questions as you please. *

Word Warrior - Reading Board Game [CVCC & CCVC Words]

Word Warrior - Reading Board Game [CVCC & CCVC Words]

(0)
This fully editable board game adds fun for children who are learning to read. For this package, I’ve split it into two games. The first is a set of CVCC words and the second is a set of CCVC words. There are 21 spaces in which you can add any word you wish for children to practice reading. The board game is also A3 size so the words are easy to see. The idea is that 2-4 children take turns rolling the dice. If they are able to read the word that they land on then they can remain there, if not then they move back to where they just were before they rolled. This is one of my personal favourite resources, not just because both I and the children love it, but also because you can enter in any word set you like. I even play this with my son and it really encourages him to focus on pronouncing the words as perfectly as he possibly can.
The End of the Beginning A3 Board Game [Fully Editable]

The End of the Beginning A3 Board Game [Fully Editable]

(0)
This colourful A3 board game is fully editable. You can change the contents of any of any square on the board. This particular version of the game is called, ‘The End of the Beginning’, as each space either has the start of a word or the end of one. When children land on a space they have to give an example word and spell it. To add difficulty you could also ask them to use it in context. There are so many other ways you an adapt this for different lessons. Here are a few more examples… a) Maths Write calculations in each box for the children to solve b) Reading Write tricky phonics words for children to work on their pronunciation or you could also have the children use the word in context in a sentence or explain its definition etc. c) Science Write questions relating to your topic in the box, or add in question spaces where children have to pick up a card with a question on. You could even get the class to create their own question cards. All you need for the game is a dice and between 2-5 players. Each of the ideas above follow the same style game play. That is, if you are able to solve the problems or read the words in the space you land on, then you are able to remain there. If not, then you go back to where you were before you rolled. You can also get creative and add in your own special spaces such as miss a go or roll again. Or you can get really creative and add in special reasons. For example, you helped a friend in need, move forward four spaces, or you fell off your bike and broke your head, miss a go. etc.

(0)
This worksheet contains a short biography on the life of Amelia Earhart who we study about in our flight unit. The mistakes cover both spelling and punctuation problems as well as grammar issues. The final section involves a word search puzzle with key words from the text. The children take on the roles of a teacher in this exercise as they attempt to find as many mistakes in the biography as they can. They are also encouraged to make corrections. Try and big up the role reversal aspect with some acting for greater engagement in the activity. Children also enjoy using highlighters or red pens for this.

Volcanic Eruption Mad Lib

(0)
This is a first person story about a volcanic eruption. Words are missing throughout the text and it’s the children’s job to fill in the blanks making sure it’s the correct part of speech (as stated in brackets) and also that it makes sense. This is an explosive Mad Lib! The first page of the document contains form fields so children can easily click and fill in the blanks. The second page is for printing off for children to fill in. Because of this, the worksheet is suitable for children to complete either online or offline. *Please note: The form functions don’t work in Google Docs, so it’s best to share the lined version instead. * Mad libs are a great way for children to personalise stories whilst learning about parts of speech and proper grammatical structure! I hope you enjoy the often crazy versions your children come up with!
A Re-write of Pie Corbetts Storm Unicorn - The Time Unicorn

A Re-write of Pie Corbetts Storm Unicorn - The Time Unicorn

(0)
We study the Storm Unicorn by Pie Corbett during literacy. Leading up to this we look at other examples before the children write their own (non-chronological) report with the aid of the text. This is a re-write of the Storm Unicorn called the Time Unicorn. Sub-titles have been added in as we encourage the use of them for better organisation. There is also another report by Pie Corbett called the Frost Unicorn which we use in addition to this as another example report text. I also have another re-write in my store called the Candy Unicorn. The document is fully editable so you can change parts as you please.

Fictional Biography Text

(0)
This is a profile / short biography of a Vietnamese woman named Ms Mihn Dao. I use it early on in my biographies unit to both ask questions about and then draw up facts into sentences using a range of time prepositions and connectives. It serves as a good basis for the children to plan their own autobiography and then their own fictional biography.

Writing Limericks Examples and Worksheet
SherwenSherwen

Writing Limericks Examples and Worksheet

(0)
This worksheet gives basic information about limericks - what is a limerick, how is it made, what patterns does it follow? Two examples are then provided. Here is one of them… There once was a girl called Jane, who thought she had a really big brain. She thought she was cool, standing in a puddle of drool, but really, she was just insane. The first task involves the children highlighting the rhyming words and counting the syllables for each line. Following this, the second task is for the children to create their own limerick. Ideas for sentence starters are provided. The final task is for the children to swap with their friends so they can read each other’s poems and give constructive feedback. It’s also great to have children share them with the whole class. They generally enjoy writing them, especially their silly nature and I love reading them! So long as they are not anything about cats, hats and rats… that gets a bit tiresome.
Speaking Portuguese Basic Conversation Sheet

Speaking Portuguese Basic Conversation Sheet

(0)
I used this when I was teaching all about Brazil in a standalone topic. We thought it would be good for the children to get a basic grasp of the main language, Portuguese. For that I created three conversational scripts between different numbers of people. The phrases are very basic. I originally made up the conversations to go with a video about basic Portuguese Phrases from Youtube. It worked great at the time but I haven’t taught the topic again, as we rotate countries of study each year. I hope you can get some use out of it! *The document is fully editable so you can change things as you please. *

Board Game Instructions Challenge
SherwenSherwen

Board Game Instructions Challenge

(0)
In this activity, children are expected to take an unknown board game called Minefield, figure out a way to play it and write the gaming instructions. The main board is provided with counters and peace signs. This works well as a team activity, as a lot of discussion needs to go into figuring out what the game play and any other equipment will be before the rules are written up. The children really loved this challenge, especially when they knew there were actually no right or wrong ways (or any way in existence) to play it. The main objective though is to try and design the game play in such a way that is both straight-forward, challenging and fun. Lots of critical thinking skills involved in the discussion stages of the activity. It’s amazing how many variants of how to play the game that the children come up with. Of course, in the end, they all get to play each others version and can decide themselves which one they enjoy the best. I hope your children love doing this activity as much as mine did!
