Bubble Writing - Handwriting Scaffold UKS2

(9)
Bubble writing - cursive handwriting scaffold Like many primary school teachers I have tried a variety of handwriting schemes with varying degrees of success. Having thought through many common problems with handwriting I have developed a simple scaffold that places a bubble either side of the line to support letter formation. This simple scaffold provides a guide to consistently form cursive letters and ensure each letter is uniform in both height and width. Children are able to leave equal spaces between words and see clearly whether or not there is enough space at the end of each line for the next word they intend to write. There has been a huge impact within my class in a very short space of time and I hope you will see similar benefits within your own setting. Included is a PowerPoint presentation including words from the Year 5/6 spelling list that can be printed as a handwriting pack for children to work through. Blank slides enable you to add words to suit your needs and finally 2 different sized PDF scaffolds that children can use to write on (If photocopied the bubbles will disappear to leave the writing that has been completed.)

Punctuation and SPaG Scheme of WorkQuick View

Punctuation and SPaG Scheme of Work

(10)
Complete Punctuation and SPaG scheme of work for Key Stage 3 and GCSE. It’s time to win the battle against poor grammar and punctuation once and for all! Complete unit of work which will allow your students to master advanced punctuation as well as engage with a range of exciting creative writing tasks. If you are anything like me, explicit teaching/reminding of how to properly apply punctuation is ESSENTIAL for all ability ranges, especially with the new specification GCSE placing so much emphasis on AO6. These lessons are certainly geared more towards KS3 and KS4 students. Powerpoints are light hearted and fun, with plenty of images/colour and silly jokes to keep your students engaged and entertained. I’ve found these lessons serve as an excellent ‘crash course’ in punctuation either at the beginning of the academic year or in the run up to the GCSE exams. Below is a list of contents: Commas (£2 if purchased on its own) - Commas powerpoint lessons Commas in a list worksheet Commas in a complex sentences worksheet Colons (£2 if purchased on its own) - Colon powerpoint lessons Mastering colons worksheet Semi-Colons (£2 if purchased on its own)- Semi-colon lesson powerpoints Semi-colon worksheets (x2) Semi-colon writing success criteria worksheet Speech- (£2 if purchased on its own) Speech powerpoint lessons Speech worksheet Speech mixed practice worksheet Writing success criteria worksheet Editing and proof reading - (£3 if purchased on its own) Editing and proof reading mini scheme powerpoint (nearly 50 slides) Editing and proof reading worksheets (£2 if purchased separately) A wide range of proof reading worksheets that you can use to consolidate and improve your student’s SPaG and proof reading abilities after you have finished the unit of work. This unit would suit a range of abilities as there is lots of scope for stretch and challenge, with ambitious success criteria and extension tasks built in throughout. Scaffolding and differentiation options are built in where appropriate. Fully resourced and ready to roll, minimal adaptation or tweaking required. This is obviously a SPaG/Punctuation scheme of work, but it is equally focused on creative/descriptive writing too. Much of the content is therefore ideal for teaching general creative writing skills or preparing for the fiction writing task on the new specification (9-1) GCSE English Language exam.

Creative Writing Scheme of Work GCSE

7 Resources
Full scheme of work covering all aspects of creative writing. Ideal in preparing students for GCSE English Language Paper 1, Section B. Designed with the very latest developments in the 9-1 specification in mind, this is best suited to the AQA syllabus but would be equally useful for both KS3 prep and other exam boards. Please see individual resources for more details. The lessons all work well as stand-alone, but if being used in sequence, the scheme runs as follows: Lesson 1 - Vocabulary Lesson 2 - Sensory Description Lesson 3 - Devices and Techniques Lesson 4 - Narrative and Descriptive Openings Lesson 5 - Sentence Variation Lesson 6 - Characterisation Lesson 7 - Narrative Structure Each lesson takes the form of a ‘masterclass’; each masterclass is packed with a range of activities that will enable your students to truly embed and master each aspect of creative writing. Each ‘lesson’ is probably going to take in excess of 2 hours to get through - you may wish to ‘pick and choose’ activities, or take your time with each skill area and cover them in depth.

TWENTY fully differentiated lessons for both KS3 and KS4 students on George Orwell’s Animal Farm. Ideal preparation for students working towards AQA English Literature Paper 2.

Students evaluate how each character is introduced, including Mr Jones, Boxer, Clover, Old Major and more. Lesson 2: We look at Old Major’s speech to the animals in Chapter 1 and how he uses language to influence the animals into supporting his cause. Additionally, we explore the song Beasts of England and evaluate how it affects the animals on the farm. Lesson 3: This focuses on the first half of Chapter 2. Students analyze key sections of the chapter to develop an understanding of characters, plot and also historical context. Recently revamped and expanded. Lesson 4: We create summaries regarding the characters, and how plot and themes are developed in the rest of Chapter 2.

Lesson 6: This lesson focuses on Chapter 4 and supports students in analyzing language and structure. Lesson 7: We look at the importance of the Windmill in Chapter 5, at what happens between Snowball and Napoleon and how Napoleon uses the puppies to tighten his grip on power.

We look closely at the battle between Snowball and Napoleon as well as Squealer’s use of language to appease the animals and their initial anger. Lesson 9: This lesson focuses on Chapter 6, historical context and creating analytical paragraphs. Lesson 10: We explore the symbolic significance of the windmill in the text and students develop a more detailed understanding of context.

Additionally, students explode quotes and develop their language analysis skills. Lesson 12: Recap Animal Farm by George Orwell through an engaging escape room lesson! It is filled with codes, puzzles and activities to get students to revise characters, themes and contexts as they work in groups or ‘escape crews’ to get out of the Windmill!

Lesson 13: Animal Farm lesson that focuses on Boxer and how he is presented in Chapter 7 plus earlier parts of the texts. We explore how Napoleon’s trials and executions of many animals mimic those of the Stalin show trials of the 1930s, as well as how the animals react to the death and destruction they witness. Lesson 14: We explore the cult of personality around Napoleon and how this links into historical context, as well as analysing the key events of the Battle of the Windmill and why the pigs’ discovery of alcohol might be the beginning of the end for the animals on Animal Farm.

8 Phonics Worksheets FREE

(15)
Eight Free phonics worksheets, covering cvc words, cvcc words, ‘ck’, ‘ee’/‘oo’, ‘sh’, ‘ar’ and ‘or’ providing valuable back up work to lessons. Great assessment tools. Written for ages 5-6 but can also be used with older children requiring catchup help or those with special needs. These sheets are compatible with all phonics schemes, however as different schemes introduce sounds at different time, just check that your pupil knows all the necessary digraphs to complete the sheet. For example, the word ‘shark’ has both ‘sh’ and ‘ar’ and so both should have been learnt before expecting the child to read and spell this word. Please leave feedback if you find this resource helpful. See More Phonic worksheets in Lilibette’s shop
