I have worked as an HLTA and MFL teacher for Secondary. These are mainly resources that I knocked up to suit my needs when I couldn't find what I was looking for, so I hope that they may be of use to you as well. Subjects I tend to cover are Literacy/English and Modern Languages but the resources are varied. A lot of the resources are differentiated and suitable for students with EAL or SEN, particularly in Key Stage 3.

German Battleships Game - Pets

German Battleships Game - Pets

(3)
MFL - German Schiffe versenken Spiel - Haustiere Instructions are included on the worksheet (print double sided). Example sentences are also included. Good for building up confidence with speaking and constructing sentence. Can also be used to teach question and answer skills. You may wish to laminate the sheets and hand out board pens. I like this game because you don't need to be the best at German in the class to win! Set a time-limit and then see who managed to sink the most battleships! If you use this resource, please think about leaving a rating or review - Danke!

German Basic Vocab Revision/Test

MFL - German This could be used as a starter. I used it at the start of Year 8 with students with SEN to see what basic things they could remember about the German lessons in Year 7.
Film Review Planning and Checklist Framework

Film Review Planning and Checklist Framework

(3)
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.
Facts and Opinions Lesson
ProfSeverusProfSeverus

Facts and Opinions Lesson

(0)
Literacy This lesson had the objective of recognising the difference between facts and opinion. It should be quite self-explanatory on the powerpoint itself. In one lesson I used stand up/sit down for a fact/opinion. In another lesson where this would have been too disruptive, I handed out two different coloured cards and they held up the appropriate one. This would also be appropriate for Entry Level/Step Up to English. Feel free to jazz it up!
Apostrophes of Possession Extension

Apostrophes of Possession Extension

(0)
Literacy An idea for a bit of extended writing inspired by the lesson on Apostrophes for Possession. When it was clear other work was being finished up or the point of the lesson had been grasped, I put this on the board as an extension for those who had finished. Use of superheroes and celebrities just to capture their imagination!
Apostrophes of Omission Extension

Apostrophes of Omission Extension

(0)
Literacy Just one slide. An idea I had for some extend writing but focusing the sentence starters on our topic of 'Apostrophes of Omission/Contraction.' I just put this screen up as students began to say they were 'finished' with the other tasks.

Where's Wally - Spot the Spelling, Grammar and Punctuation Mistakes.

(25)
Literacy. This sheet was made for Key Stage 3 Literacy classes to help them to proof read. Some students will be able to recognise that certain things are wrong. Some will be able to correct the mistakes. *If you use this resource, I would be grateful if you left a review and let me know how it went. Thank you!*

Common French Verbs

(0)
MFL - French This was made as an easy visual revision sheet for a student (Year 9) with SEN to help them learn basic French verbs for a test. It was used in conjunction with precision teaching. We also made connections with the words for revision, for example 'mange' sounding a bit like 'munch' and 'habite' sounding like 'habitat'.
Capital Letters and Punctuation Prompt Card.
ProfSeverusProfSeverus

Capital Letters and Punctuation Prompt Card.

(0)
Literacy I have used this prompt card to stick in the front of exercise books for lower sets/SEN. You could also laminate the card, punch a hole in it, and tie it with a piece of string into a student's planner so it is visible in every lesson and can be used as a tool to check over the basics in every piece of work. Have you used capital letters correctly? Have you used punctuation correctly? I find the MINTS acronym to be helpful for capital letters.
Capital Letters and Lower Case Prompt Strips
ProfSeverusProfSeverus

Capital Letters and Lower Case Prompt Strips

(0)
Literacy Useful for SEN. I print these out and cut up or laminate for students who have trouble recognising capital letter mistakes that they have made in their work. In Literacy, I have cut the strips up and stuck one in every margin of specific exercise books to serve as a reminder. Some students repeatedly put capital letters in the middle of words, for example, and on investigation I found that some of them didn't know what the lower case letter looked like.

Literacy This basic lesson was made and used for a Literacy class for SEN students to give them a frame-work to do: a) some writing to persuade work b) some peer assessment of each other's speeches Feel free to jazz it up!
Alphabet Categories Quiz Worksheet

Alphabet Categories Quiz Worksheet

(1)
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!
