Writing Intervention Kit: Form&Guidance

(0)
A simple tool to structure writing interventions with pupils, focusing on uplevelling previous writing. The kit has a record form and guidance for adults. Developed as a new intervention run by our teaching assistants this year, the kit is a basic resource to help scaffold a writing intervention session, focusing on editing and improving writing. Using 6 prompts/questions as starting points, the activity leads to checking spelling, using resources and improving vocabulary. The resource is on a PDF with guidance notes followed by a one-page form, which is easily printable and photocopiable, making it simple to copy, fill and file. Using the kit can also help to keep track of the intervention sessions and provide an easy way of communicating between support staff and class teachers.

KS2 English: Christmas Adverts Sample

(0)
A Key-Stage Two unit using festive television adverts to inspire work around narrative and description - includes unit overview and first full lesson. Over the 10 lessons, children will plot narratives, write short descriptions about setting and character, devise their own advert idea and create a video piece using technology, echoing the Christmas adverts use of narrative to create a story that will engage customers. iPads or cameras will be needed in this unit to create the video advert. iMovie is recommended as there are preset formats to use for younger children. Alternatively, drama could be used to put on a LIVE version of the advert in the classroom.
