Taken from our Year 2 Literacy Resource file. The unit, Instructions, builds on work done in Year 1 and has three phases, with oral and written outcomes and assessment opportunities at regular intervals. The focus is on following and giving instructions. Children begin with an oral phase, followed by a recognising, reading and following phase, and finally progressing to the written production phase. Within this context, children begin to explore the key structural features of instructions and learn to select the appropriate register and style necessary for instructions. This unit uses many curriculum areas in order to give children as much variety as possible in the instructions they read, follow and compose.

The main purpose of this Mathematics Homework is to make your life, as a teacher of Year 6 pupils, as easy as possible. All of the homework activities are based on the renewed Primary Framework for mathematics; however, as they assess specific learning objectives they can be used in conjunction with other planned teaching schemes. Each homework activity sheet addresses a whole, or part of, a learning objective. The questions are written to test the understanding of your pupils once they have worked on a topic in the lesson. This in turn, will provide you with the information required to assess the pupils’ learning, and will enable you to plan your lessons effectively. With a full set of answers included you can be confident that your students are getting regular, relevant homework that tests their understanding across the Year 6 objectives and all seven core strands. This easy-to-use CD will reduce the time spent preparing and marking homework enabling you use your time as efficiently as possible.

Grammar and Creativity for Year 5 Good writing may start with an exciting idea, but it needs structure to make sense to a reader. Grammar provides a framework on which to display the imagination. Writing brings together individual expression and an understanding of the rules that allow our language (any language) to make sense.

Developing children’s understanding of the basics of English will encourage their literary adventures. The range of activities here has been designed to excite interest as well as guide children and teachers through the rules. The guide is organised in an incremental way, later tasks being built on earlier ones. Step by step, each exercise calls upon skills and terminology already explored. In this way, both the child and their teacher will develop a sense of the progress being made. At any particular age, of course, children will be working at different levels and may need either more fundamental or more challenging work set for them The guide has three main sections: word, sentence (including punctuation) and text. Each section has an introductory page which can be enlarged to create an explanatory poster for display purposes. At the end, there is a glossary explaining the terminology used in the book, as well as an answer section. Leave a review
