Useful as a starter or ice breaking activity
Based on the TV game show, this is a word game activity that helps to develop your skills in speaking and listening; working in a team and in taking turns.
54 slides in total.
This pack contains a comprehensive set of colourful semantics cards, including who, doing, what, where, when, how, to who and adjectives (12 pages), a display explaining the different colours and linking them to word classes with examples, a variety of worksheets to introduce and develop the use of colorful semantics and a reminder bookmark to help children use these independently.

A game I made for my small class of learners with autism. Suitable for any small group introduction - e.g. intervention group, speech and language, attention and listening. Learners throw a dice and move around the board. When they land on a question, they answer the question. I like to ask another member of the group a question relating to the answer, to encourage learners to pay attention to each other's answers - my children tend to have very little interest in each other!
Supports social skills, attention and listening, turn taking.
Used for specialist autism group but appropriate for any mainstream KS1 / KS2 group or older SEN group.
This resource comprises of two files.
The first is a highly visual workbook designed to be used with the film of James and the Giant peach.
There are a range of different activities but most are literacy based questions that involving comprehension of what has happened in the film up to that point. It can be split over a few lessons if needed.
The powerpoint presentation is an 83 slide comprehensive look at the novel of James and the Giant Peach. it looks at the Author, Character, novel cover, different settings, plot, writing conventions, and theme.
All the main characters and settings are covered over a few slides each and you can use the proforma that is included in this to help students to answer questions about the different settings throughout the book. There is also a proforma for the character slides should you choose to use it, it also includes aspects of the writing conventions.
This is a great complement to a study of the novel and film that will allow you to differentiate the task for a variety of levels of ability.
A game to improve communication skills.
Rules
The teacher will split you into two teams. One person from the first team will be selected to sit in front of the whiteboard. They will not be able to see the screen. On the screen a word will pop up, along with an image and clue words. The objective is to get the person to guess the word correctly. Your team has 1 minute to help your team member guess the correct answer. However, you will not be able to say any of the words on the screen (including the title.) You will also not be allowed to do any actions, impressions or stand up...and no shouting. You are not allowed to say things like… “It starts with the letter A.”
It is 3 points for a clean win (with no deductions.) Points will be deducted if team players say the words on the board.
*Suitable for all ages and key stages.

The Three Little Pigs themed colourful semantics. The cards help struggling speakers and writers to retell a familiar tale, giving them more confidence when they write.
Colourful semantics is an approach created by Alison Bryan. It is a great way to support children who struggle to write independently.
Colourful Semantics helps children to:
•Develop a wider vocabulary
•Make sentences longer
•Develop use of nouns, verbs, prepositions and adjectives
•Improve story telling skills
The colour scheme relates to the types of words in a sentence: Who? (noun) Doing? (verb) What? (object) Where? (location). Children use the strips included to help them structure their own sentences.
This pack contains fairy tale specific vocabulary, including:
4 who - noun/person cards
9 doing - verb cards
9 what - noun/object cards
4 where - noun/place cards
This PPT game is good to practise and improve English speaking skills.
Divide the class into 3 teams.
Ask one student from each team to sit facing away from the screen. Team 1 starts the game. They have to choose a number on slide 2.
If you click on the number, it will take you to a new slide.
The students in Team 1 must describe the given word, WITHOUT saying the taboo words. The student from Team 1 (who is sitting in “the hot chair” facing away from the screen) has to guess the word in 20 seconds. If the word is correct, Team 1 wins 10 points.
Then it’s Team 2’s turn.
Then it’s Team 3’s turn.
You can write the points in the boxes on slide 2.
In the next round you can ask new students to come and sit in the “hot chairs” facing away from the screen.
The team with the most points at the end of the game wins.
