I have worked in both KS2 and KS1 as class teacher and am also English Leader in KS1. For the last 5 years, I have been teaching in Y2, which gave me plenty of 鈥楽ATs experience鈥�. However, I have been trying to ensure that the skills children need to apply in their SATs are linked to everyday life experiences and have applied them as much as I could to our topics, in order to avoid 'teaching to the test'. I really value your feedback on my resources. Happy browsing!

I made these sheets for my year 2 class to work on in mixed ability pairs.
I think it would work with year 3 and 4 and possibly with high level year 1 children as well.
Please note they are not differentiated!
It worked very well though, I got them talking together in groups of 2.
The skills practised are the following:

- Question words: (sheets for two sessions)
Thinking carefully about what kind of answer the question word asks for. It is done in two parts - one where they have to read a question and discuss what kind of thing they are looking for in the answer eg a place, a person etc. The second part has questions and possible answers, all multiple choice. There is no text but children have to work out from the question word which answer is correct by identifying if the question asks for a time, place, reason etc.

- Inference:
Looking at the clues in the text and using them to make sense of what happened

- Language: (sheets for two sessions)
Thinking about language choices, understanding words, picking out synonyms etc.
