Literacy Some story titles to act as prompts when doing free creative writing.

Literacy Writing to inform and advice. This lesson was created for a KS3 SEN Literacy group, introducing them to the concepts of information and advice, enabling them to spot the difference and then write their own piece of information and advice writing. Feel free to jazz it up!

Literacy The lesson (KS3 SEN) focused on being able to write instructions using imperative verbs or bossy verbs! The starter quiz (uploaded on PDF) is NOT my own but I have uploaded it as that is what I used as a starter. Feel free to jazz it up!

Literacy This is a nice and easy alphabet game that everyone can take part in. I usually allow them to play in pairs. The aim is to fill in the category columns with an answer for each letter. For example for girls' names you might have Annie, Becky, Charlotte etc. I also use it to reinforce the use of capital letters for names etc. It also introduces an element of competition if you would like to use it that way. Feel free to jazz it up!

Literacy An on the board starter and a reading comprehension task based on the topic Holidays and Writing to Persuade or Advertise for an SEN KS3 class but could be adapted for others. The lesson before, students research different holidays. Here they learn what a holiday advert looks like before designing their own. Useful for Literacy classes or Entry Level / Step Up to English. Feel free to jazz it up! *If you use this resource, I would be grateful if you left a review and let me know how it went. Thank you!*

Literacy Film Review Planning - this sheet was used as a framework for students with SEN to make notes on during and after watching a film. Sentence starters are included to help them. Film Review Checklist - the students then typed up their reviews using the framework. They were each given a checklist/task list to tick off as they worked to help them focus on what was important. Also useful for differentiating within a mainstream lesson.
