Length - key stage 2 sats questions organised by levels 3, 4 and 5. Mark scheme and notes also added as an additional file. Word files for easy editing.
Rotation key stage 2 sats questions organised by levels 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Mark scheme and notes also added as an additional file. Word files for easy editing.
24 crosswords - 6 for each of the year group from 3-6, focussing on the language of science - 20 for KS2.
links to 100s more science language resources can be found on the read me file
This file gives you the links to the TES resources for display words, word lists, word searches, crosswords, domino card, learning mats and pair cards for each of the units of work in science. All free. All in word for easy editting
57 collective nouns listed alphabetically in an A4 image and also a publisher file for easy editing. Ideal for class use, display or as a teaching resource.
A4 image of 15 common 2D shapes with names. Ideal for table use, display or whiteboards. More maths learning mats are at http://www.tes.co.uk/teaching-resource/9-Maths-Learning-Mats-6421295/
30 bingo cards of 8 different numbers each corresponding to multiplication and division number facts. Cards for random selection of problems. Range of individual and mixed times tables
Need a clear, consistent and easy to use system for assessing maths without levels?
Maths areas covered:
number and place value
fractions
statistics
geometry
addition
subtraction
multiplication
division
measurement
ratio and proportion
algebra
The series contain 233 short assessment tasks for every statement from year 1 to year 5. Assessment without levels is about continuous assessment but within a structured and robust system to ensure consistency of approach. These assessments can be done quickly, at any time and repeated as the children will not know the answers. They can be done as a class, a group or individually.
The number of assessments are as follows
Year 1 – 20
Year 2 – 34
Year 3 - 33
Year 4 – 44
Year 5 - 49
Year 6 - 53
To support teachers, I have provided:
• Answers for each sheet
• Colour coded year group sheets
• An overview of all the statements organised by mathematical area
• A guide on what stage to assess the children at. I have used beginning, working within and secure as statements but these can be adapted to your system
Key STage 2 conversion tables for scaled score for 2018. Reading and maths. Also comparisons between 2017 and 2018 thresholds
to convert these to indicative progress scores please downloads my easy to use spreadsheets here
https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/pag-progress-and-attainment-calculator-for-2018-ks2-sats-30-60-or-90-pupil-versions-11909586
Enter each pupil’s details - name, gender, PPG and SEN status as well as their KS1 and KS2 SATs outcomes and this spreadsheet automatically calculates:
The prior attainment group (PAG) group for each child
individual, class and group pupil progress and attainment
calculates children’s attainment and progress based on their cohort, gender, PPG and SEN status
See pictures for how the data is shown.
what to do:
enter each child’s name, gender, PPG and SEn status to the pupil info tab only
Enter KS1 results (includes P levels)
Enter KS2 results scaled scores for maths and reading. For writing the following codes are accepted - GD, EXS, WTS, PKG, PKE, PKF, BLW, P8, P7, P6, P5, P4, P3ii, P3i, P2ii, P2i ,P1ii, P1i
From here the spreadsheet does the rest
Calculates the PAG for each child and from this, sets the targets in reading, writing and maths for each child, based on a R&W average and then a KS1 average - see attached DfE document for further guidance
Once the KS2 data is added, the spreadsheet calculates each child’s progress and this is reflected in a green or red formatting for easy reference
On the summary tab, progress scores are calculated for the whole cohort, boys, girls, disadvantaged and other, SEN support and no SEN. The percentage achieving the standard or higher for each of these groups as well as the percentages achieving RWM for each category. This is mirrored for the percentage of children achieving the higher standard in for each group and RWM. Finally, the average scaled scores are calculated for overall and each group.
In addition, you can enter your 2017 data for easy comparison.
Each sheet fits neatly onto an A4 sheet for use by governors, SLT or school ‘visitors’
