Great resource to practise column addition and subtraction of 4 digit numbers. Find the answer’s corresponding letter and they then unscramble to name a Transformer’s character!

Practicing column addition and subtraction can sometimes become dull, so liven it up with this codebreaker activity. Children have to answer 7 calculations. Each calculation’s answer has a corresponding letter, on separate leaf shapes which you can cut into cards. Once all the answers have been collected and the letters rearranged, they spell out the Autumn themed word “harvest.” Make it extra fun by hiding the leaf answers around the room! Laminate to keep them year after year.

Are you looking for high-quality, GL style practice papers to help your students/children succeed in their exams? Written by an 11+ tutor of over 3 years (and a teacher of 5 years before that) these GL style practice papers are designed to help children improve reading comprehension and SPaG skills from the very beginning of their tuition journey. One of the biggest barriers I have found when tutoring the 11+ is that the vast majority of practise papers available are on par with the difficulty of the exam; for children just beginning their journey, these are often very difficult to access and can be demoralising for them. I have designed these papers to be challenging, but still accessible to children particularly in the first half of their 11+ tuition journey. Here’s what you can expect from my papers: Quality, interesting comprehension texts which move with the seasons, providing context and relevance to the reader. Line indicators on texts, as per standard GL examinations. 20 multiple choice comprehension questions - 5 possible answers for each. Specific spelling, punctuation and grammar questions, with a “identify the mistake” concept. Layout reflects that of the GL style examinations, ensuring early familiarisation. Full answer sheet with similar format to the examinations, ensuring early familiarisation. Answers included, with explanations if necessary. Enhance your child’s/student’s examination prep experience with these practise papers!

PLEASE NOTE: These trackers only contain maths and English objectives, not verbal/non verbal reasoning. I created this resource to easily keep track of the objectives I need to teach my 11+ students, and how they are achieving within them. Resource features all objectives that may need teaching to cover the content of the exam. As this is a Word Document, you can delete/add objectives as appropriate to each individual child. The RAG rating allows you to track what needs to be taught again. These tables currently feature the test papers I have purchased/downloaded - you will need to delete these and add ones you have from your own collection.

Reward cards for children to promote and reward positive behaviour! I use these with my tutees and they adore them. They place a sticker on each gap and get to tick their reward when all four have been collected. Laminate them and use easy peel stickers to make them last forever! You can write names on them to personalise. Plus, you get to decide the types of behaviours that will earn a loyalty point, making it a truly flexible resource. Currently four fun designs. Purchase separately or altogether.
