3 HIDDEN WORD / SPOT THE MISTAKES PUZZLES:
Puzzles feature sentences containing multiple words from the Year 5 and Year 6 spelling list, most spelled correctly
Students check carefully to spot errors and highlight corresponding letters in the grid at the bottom
Rearrange highlighted letters to form another word from the spelling list
To save printing, print puzzles on card and laminate. Students use whiteboard pens, allowing repeated use
Puzzles are included with a pastel background, to reduce glare for dyslexic learners and others for whom this is helpful. If not colour printing, it becomes a greyscale background, which you might like, though there are also versions without a background
Spotting errors may help students remember to check their own work and help them avoid errors themselves
Individual, pairs or small group use
For differentiation put lower ability children into pairs, perhaps with a higher ability student. You could allow a word list or dictionary for support
3 FOUR IN A ROW GAMES:
Each board contains 36 sentences featuring a misspelled word from the Year 5 and Year 6 word list
These words are printed in bold and underlined
Pairs or individuals can play against each other, aiming to correct 4 adjacent spellings in a line - horizontally, vertically or diagonally
Students roll dice to determine from which column they must pick a sentence
Print and laminate for regular use
Originally designed for A3 printing, and I recommend this, with students writing directly on the board with a thin whiteboard pen. However, it works fine in A4 (you may need to adjust printer settings). If A4, students could write their spelling on a mini whiteboard or paper and put their initials in the space if correct

MORE INFO:
Designed as a dice game, it can be used in other ways. As individuals, in pairs or in groups, students roll to find out which 3 words they must incorporate into a sentence (Instructions are on the cards). There are 6 groups of words on each card – openers/connectives, verbs, adjectives, adverbs and two groups of nouns. Students place the selected words anywhere in their sentence, as long as it makes sense, recording the sentence on paper or a mini whiteboard. You may wish to allow flexibility (changing verb tense, using the verb as an adjective etc.)
To cater for different situations and abilities, change the number of words they roll for, have students team up with a partner or select any words they want from the card. I encourage dictionary use for unfamiliar words and urge students to keep sentences they are especially proud of for use in longer pieces of writing. The activity might spark a whole story!
Print on card or paper and laminate for repeated use. With a smaller group, choose the ones you print and/or laminate cards back to back. Alternatively, display cards on the screen for whole class use.

Christmas Literacy fun! These 6 December no prep KS2 Editing / Proofreading Literacy puzzles worksheets (and full solutions) are ideal for the busy end of term. Use for starters, main lesson tasks or early finisher activities to practise a range of spelling, punctuation and grammar during December. 3 puzzles were originally designed for Year 6 and 5 (P7 and P6) and 3 simpler ones for Year 3 and 4 (P4 and P5). Both sets could be used in the same class for differentiation if required. They could also be used for revision in early KS3. Versions are included with and without a festive background picture. All sentences are Christmas-themed.
Now available in a good value Christmas Puzzle BUNDLE with this festive mental maths puzzle pack: Christmas Mental Maths Puzzles
An engaging alternative to worksheets, these festive puzzles make ideal starter, early finisher, revision or filler tasks for this special time of year. Similar to codebreaker puzzles, a Christmas-related word is revealed after completing the editing work. Each puzzle contains 20 lines of text (or 15 in the simpler ones). Pupils circle any mistakes they spot. If there are 3 or more mistakes in a single line, they highlight the corresponding letter in the grid at the bottom of the page. At the end they rearrange the highlighted letters to reveal the Christmas word. Puzzles can be completed individually or in pairs / groups, with pupils supporting each other and pooling their editing / proofreading skills.
Pupils often forget or avoid re-reading their own work to check for errors so it is great to get them carefully checking in these puzzles. Spotting common spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors may help them remember to check their own work and help them avoid errors themselves.
Some of the aspects of SPaG included: common spelling errors, full stops, capital letters, question marks, commas, colons, speech marks, proper nouns, missing words, repeated words, tenses, subordinate clauses and embedded clauses. (Not all concepts feature in the 3 simpler puzzles (Puzzles 4-6).

Money Games (Calculating Change from Twenty Pounds) for KS2, Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6, depending on ability: differentiated, illustrated four-in-a-row boards, each featuring 36 prices in UK currency (sterling) for finding change for £20, plus a 20-card loop card / dominoes set.
A fun, strategic activity for consolidating this key money / financial / shopping skill. Ideal for maths lessons or Money Week skills practice.
2 PDF files. Includes:
2 standard game boards (featuring different items and prices from each other)
2 lower ability boards (as above but less challenging calculations)
Answer grids for at-a-glance checking by pupils or teacher
Laminate and use again and again. Children work as pairs against pairs or one against one to get 4 correct answers in a row - horizontally, vertically or diagonally. It works especially well if they roll a dice to find which column they must pick a calculation from (columns numbered 1-6). If there are no questions left in a column, skip a go or roll again. Imagining that they pay for each item with £20, pupils use a different coloured whiteboard pen to record on the board the change due for each of their transactions or add an initial or symbol if both teams are using the same colour. I recommend printing in A3 but A4 is okay too. The LA versions have a star next to the title. Print on different coloured card or paper if required.
LOOP GAME / FOLLOW ME CARDS / DOMINOES
A 20-card set that can start with any card. A child reads the 'I spend' part first as they make their 'purchase' with others working out if they have the relevant 'I give you'. Use as a game for groups or as a whole class starter or plenary (in pairs if necessary). LA pupils could be given less challenging cards so they can still experience success.

Designed for an Upper Key Stage 2 (KS2) Year 6 class but suitable for early KS3 Year 7 for revision, these 6 Speed, Distance and Time printable Four in a Row games (metric units) are fun alternative activities to additional textbook work on this maths topic, after pupils know the formulae D=SxT, S=D÷T and T=D÷S. ANSWER VERSIONS of all games are included. All games are in PDF format.
Contains a more simple (one star) and more challenging (two star) version for each of:
Distance Travelled
Average Speed
Time Taken
In addition to featuring generally more challenging calculations, the two-star versions of each require conversion between units in some cases.
Print and laminate the boards for regular use. I recommend printing boards in A3 if possible (or enlarging them to A3 on the copier) but A4 will be okay too. Pupils work as pairs against pairs or one against one to get four correct answers in a row - horizontally, vertically or diagonally. They roll a die each time to find which column to pick a calculation from (the columns are numbered 1-6). If there are no calculations left in the column whose number they have rolled, they either skip a go or roll again (depending on the rules you have chosen). Pupils write their answers on the board with a whiteboard marker. They could either use a different coloured pen to record answers on the board or add an initial or symbol if using the same coloured pen as their opponent.
I hope your students enjoy playing these games.

In Scotland, use for Primary 5, 6, 7 and S1.
INCLUDES:
20 Imaginative Writing Story Starters Prompt Cards
40 Improving and Extending Sentences Worksheets (differentiated)
40 Full Stops and Capital Letters Self-Check Punctuation Cards (differentiated)
Ideal literacy warm ups, early finishers, extension tasks, whole class activities etc throughout the year
Also great for back to school or end of term: during busy times, keep these on hand for useful learning and consolidation opportunities with little-to-no planning required
Target particular children, perhaps SEN / ASN, who require extra support but useful for middle and higher ability too
MORE INFO:
Creative Writing Story Prompts: 20 A4 cards with a a picture / photo, word bank, starter sentence and questions to stimulate a story. Students could choose one to spark a full piece of imaginative writing, just a paragraph or two or perhaps a description.
Improving Sentences Worksheets: 40 sentence uplevelling trails at 2 levels to support students in writing more ambitious, complex sentences. Print as worksheets or laminate for regular use (with dry-wipe pens). Worked examples of extended sentences included.
Full Stops and Capital Letters Cards: 40 differentiated cards with an unpunctuated paragraph on one side and corrections on the other. They support students working out where sentences begin and end, to avoid fragments and run on sentences - a skill that often needs regular practice, even in Upper KS2. They are a great stepping stone to students more independently checking and editing their own writing. Instead of printing, display a card on screen for whole class completion. Answer versions can be shown on screen too for self- or peer-marking.

I hope this bundle provides engaging, time-saving activities that you’ll come to time and again throughout the year and that you can use with class after class. Thank you so much for supporting my store.

(Where do you live?). PDF format.
My German basics resources are made for students beginning German and near beginners in KS2 or early KS3 (Years 5, 6 and 7) and equivalents but they may suit others, depending on experience. Please check the preview file to assess suitability.

The Hidden Word Puzzle is an engaging alternative to standard worksheets, and makes an ideal starter, early finisher activity, review task, or homework. German Greetings and Introductions vocabulary has been translated, with some deliberate errors for the students to find. Students circle boxes containing errors, then assemble the letters from the circled boxes to reveal a German number word.

Students roll dice, then choose a clothing word from that number column and say it in French. If correct, use a dry-wipe pen to mark that box (opponents could use a different colour).
BATTLESHIPS-STYLE GRID GAME: 6 sets of 2 identical cards. Laminate and use dry-wipe pens. Players take the same number card as their opponent, place a cross in 4 boxes to choose clothing and colour, and ask questions to discover the location of their opponent’s crosses. (As-tu une robe rouge? etc.). The first to correctly guess all 4 wins.
‘I HAVE…WHO HAS?’ GAME: Features 36 key words. 2 versions (one with an image on both sides to support lower ability or less experienced students). Print and laminate the cards, which form a continuous loop.
JIGSAW PUZZLE: Laminate for repeated use. Students match French clothing words with correct images.
VOCAB SUPPORT: 3 pages to support students playing the games, if required. Page 1 has a core range of vocabulary, Page 2 has an extended range and Page 3 has a table of French colours with adjectival agreement, for use with Battleships.
