This Year 6 Coronation Edition SATs game focuses on SPAG questions, covering similar formats and question areas as Spag paper 1 whilst also giving children an informative activity about King Charles during the run up to the coronation and over the bank holiday weekend. SPAG Master is a game I use with Year 6 in the last few weeks before the SATs. All questions in this Coronation Edition are based around King Charles so you can revise and discuss the coronation at the same time! You know how it feels - when you’ve done past paper after past paper and you still need to work on retrieval but you need some ENERGY! This is a quiz which involves partner work, team names and unlimited points and my children LOVE it. Covering all of the Punctuation and Grammar question areas from Paper 1 in a quiz format. • Children work in pairs for this Coronation Edition SPAG quiz. • For each section (PPT slide) each child will be given 2 to 3 minutes (your discretion) to answer the questions independently on their own piece of paper. • The next 2 minutes will be sharing and discussing answers with their partner. • Before sharing, they will need to decide upon a final answer as a team. • This is great for peer work, talking through HOW they came to their answer. • Points are decided by the teacher: correct answers; superb explanations; good behaviour; staying focused • I also deduct points to maintain behaviour management: shouting out, arguing etc. I find that the children learn very quickly that it’s all a bit of fun in the midst of all their revision and behave well beyond the first couple of deductions! • Having ultimate power over the points also ensures that you can award points to children with low self esteem who need the boost. • All questions are based around King Charles. I show SPAG Master as a PPT presentation and everyone looks at the whiteboard but I have also included a PDF in case you need to print out questions or if you wish to air drop to iPads. Another PPT and PDF contains the answers which I use as a class so I can see what everyone is getting out of it, what my areas of need are, giving out points and also to keep up the energy. However, this could also be used for self marking.

This resource is designed to encourage pupils to discuss Biblical Artwork to enhance their understanding of The Parable of the Good Samaritan. The session should have three parts: a. Reading the Scripture so that children are all familiar with the parable. b. Looking at various artworks one at a time and discussing what is noticed in each picture. I usually do this on PowerPoint. ie) What has the artist included? Why? What has the artist left out? Why? Why is this colour used? Is the picture modern? Why? etc. What is good about the picture? What do they feel it would benefit from adding or changing? What surprised them about the picture? What question would they ask the artist? There should be a lot of discussion generated. c. Children should choose one image to discuss further in their work. The worksheet aims for meaningful understanding of the parable and how it is relevant to their lives today. Teaching points: When answering written questions about the Biblical Art, children must answer the questions demonstrating their Biblical Knowledge. eg) What did you like about the painting? I liked the colours because it’s my favourite colour. I liked the how the artist has included the people who ignored the man. One of the people is turning their head around, showing that they knew they should have helped. What question would you ask the artist about this painting? How long did it take you? What inspired you? Why did you choose to make this a modern day picture and changing the gender of one of the people who ignored the man? Answer 1 in these examples shows no understanding. Answer 2 demonstrates knowledge of the parable and careful thought about their understanding of it. I hope you find this resource useful. If you do, please could you leave a review? Feel free to make requests for future resources.
