The pack aims to support dyslexic students in improving their Discussion Writing. It contains an outline of the lessons, a series of unique, visual spelling activities, a visual sentence activity and a model text. The unit finishes with an independent writing task. The use of the copy - cover - spell technique has proved ineffective for dyslexic students. Instead, I have developed a unique approach to spelling that involves drawing and colouring the words and using colours to demarcate syllables. It is a simple, yet powerful approach. Often dyslexic students struggle to structure sentences in writing due to memory processing issues. The pack contains a visual, sentence sorting activity. Finally, there is a model text included so that students can see the key words and sentences in context. The unit is a sure way to support dyslexic students!

A worksheet aimed at ESL pupils beginning to learn the language. Pupils are required to match vocabulary to the picture prompt and then use adjectives to describe the nouns.

This resource is a five-lesson unit aimed to improve persuasive writing skills and is ideal for GCSE level or equivalent. It includes teacher notes, five lesson plans and a student booklet. Uniquely, the unit is structured around a model response to a sample exam question. It looks at the vocabulary, grammar and overall structure of a persuasive letter and encourages the use of these skills in independent writing. The unit follows a sequence that includes an exam question analysis, a vocabulary and grammar in context set of activities, a comprehension exercise based on the model text and an independent writing section. The Unit of work has proved to be an invaluable and proven way of moving pupils into the higher GCSE band and provides a structure of learning that can be applied to other forms of writing.
