I made this for the teaching staff at my school but have found it to be an invaluable resource for working with th pupils. There are 9 pages with full screen pictures and clear instructions on how to import your video, edit it by adding music, adding transistions and other video effects. How to add titles and credits and finally how to export it. I have used this resource which is prodiuced in a Word format successfully with year 4, 5 & 6 classes.

This is a great whole book planned guided reading unit based on the book Mysterious Traveller by Mal Peet & Elspeth Graham. The story tells of an old man finding an abandoned baby in the desert who he adopts as his own grand-daughter. he teaches her how to track her way through the desert and she travels with him while he guides traders through the deserts of northern Africa. When he loses his vision she becomes his eyes and they work in tandem on their adventures. I have planned a unit of work that is split into 9 different reading comprehensions as each set of questions has between 6 and 8 questions and covers 5 pages of the book. I have also included printer friendly pages where there are 3 copies of the questions on each page so it is easy to prepare for lessons. I have included all the answers too as this is a great time saver. The questions are designed to easily fit English books as I have adjusted the margins so they fit. I hope your class enjoys this book as much as mine have always done.

This is a something I get the pupils to complete before they write to focus their minds on why, what and for who they are writing. It also includes a larger version for display on a working wall. Purpose - What does the writing aim to do? Persuade, advise, inform, explain, describe analyse, review, comment or instruct? Audience - Who is the text written for? Your teacher, friends, parents, head teacher or younger pupils. Language - Consider the formality of the piece. Is it a formal or informal? What tense is it written in; 1st person (I), 2nd person (you) or 3rd person (he/she/they). What types of words or phrases are being used? Technical, scientific, descriptive, informative, factual, emotive, serious or humorous. What linguistic devices are being used? Fact, opinion, rhetorical questions, hyperbole (exaggeration), irony, anecdote or puns. Layout - How is the text presented? Headlines, sub-headings, slogans, bullet points, diagrams, captions or in columns.

I have also included it in a pdf format to make it easier to print.

This is an assessment sheet I have designed which has the whole of the primary curriculum for writing. It is broken down into different domains: • Transcription • Handwriting • Composition & Effect • Text Structure & Organisation • Sentence Structure • Vocabulary, Grammar and Punctuation I use this to assess the progress of pupils working below age related expectations to prove accelerated progress. At the beginning of each year you mark or highlight where they start in each domain and regularly update it throughout the year as the pupil makes progress. The next year a new teacher uses a different colour. The assessment sheet prints out best on a double sided A3 piece of paper.

This is a display that I made to put more SMSC into my school. It is split into the four categories of Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural.

It is a great resource to assess how well your grammar sessions are going and adapt your planning accordingly. I have included a mark scheme as well as the test.
