A 9 slide PPT ideal for Year 6 SATs prep but also good for teachers of KS2/3/4 needing to teach / revise where capital letters go. The PPT looks at where capital letters need to go and includes several independent tasks which results in pupils having to really think for themselves. Also includes a SATs style question which can easily be removed if not relevant to your class. The last task is the creation of a poster to demonstrate pupils' knowledge of where capital letters need to go. Please see my other KS2 SATs resources including PPTs about the subjunctive; simple past and present; present perfect verb form and present and past progressive verbs.

A comprehensive PPT presentation on the use of paragraphs. Ideal for Year 6 SATs but would also work well for any other KS2/KS3/KS4 students needing to know about paragraphs. The presentation has 4 lesson outcomes which could be delivered over one lesson or divided into smaller chunks (learning reflection/mini-plenaries included for each learning outcome). The resource looks briefly at the importance of paragraphs and then talks about TiP ToP. Pupils need to identify where and why paragraphs are needed in two different texts (worksheets included). Also included is a planning task where pupils need to plan their paragraphs and topic sentences for a piece of non-fiction writing. I am an English teacher who specialises in grammar and who works in both primary and secondary schools. Thanks for looking.
