• 13 Action Verb Worksheets

    $3.99

    Actions verbs are a mainstay of every language teachers curriculum. They are great to teach and children really benefit from being taught them using varied activities. However, one of those activities we use to consolidate or cool them down after all the actions, is the humble worksheet.

    Children need to learn a mixture of grammar and phonics to learn to talk. Verbs, and in particular Action Verbs, are incredibly important part of this. The ability to be able to communicate their actions and what they want or have been doing is a huge motivator for younger learners. As they start to form sentences they will naturally acquire vocabulary, there are ways to develop these skills more effectively.

    The free ones are here /Free version of the farm reading worksheets.
    The read along YouTube is here :) https://youtu.be/dFYmvI5nEsY

    I have made these for my school and students. Guided and leveled readers can be really really expensive so I thought putting some packs of leveled readers might be helpful to teachers out there. These reading passages are leveled using the SMOG and Flesch Kincaid Grade Level. As with all things this is dependent on the background, prior knowledge and reading level of your students. Some will find it easier some will find it more difficult. So they are designed for you to use your professional judgement

    I have started to make some readers based on themes. This theme is farm animals and there will be others to come on the site soon as well. These are aimed at Kindergarten and grade 1 to 2 students and i have tried to keep the text at lower reading levels. There are editable versions on the store if you wanted to increase the difficultly for your particular students.

    Reading and writing together is a great way to cement knowledge and with students natural affinity towards wildlife this is a good subject to use to encourage that.

    They images are below so you can get an idea of the content.

    They can be used as part of general lessons or as part of a Guided reading programme ( which is what i am going to try to build up here) A set of reading cards for schools to be able to target reading levels for their students and implement a cost saving reading system to help them better cater for learner diversity. There are multiple sets of these on the site some are multi – topic and graded, others (like this one) are set on a particular subject. In this case farm animals. They are constantly, work allowing, added to so it maybe worth booking marking the site.

    The phonics resources on this site also go well with this and they are also available in both free and editable versions

    These are also editable if you need but there is a small fee from the shop. there are also other graded readers and phonics resources both here and in the store.

    Most of resources can be premium downloaded below, they are all editable so you can adapt them for your, classes, students and schools. It also helps me with the costs of running the website!

    $2.49

    This is the 12 PDF version of these Dinosaur Cards.

    T

    I love teaching children about dinosaurs, I have books and fossils to show them and their enthusiasm rubs off on me. There is something about these huge animals that just captures imagination of children.

    So i have put together these reading cards with 12 of the most popular dinosaurs on theme. Each has some information and then 5 comprehension questions and a coloring box with the dinosaur in it (I will make the coloring images bigger for download in a short while in case you need)


    Reading comprehension is both difficult and essential for younger learners. Half the battle is getting them motivated on a topic to be willing as well as able to try to use reading strategies. These cards will help. You can add additional questions as you wish.

    Here there are 4 examples and in the premium set we have 12 for you. which should be enough to cover any of your students favorite dinosaur!!

    On these reading comprehension cards we have the following dinosaurs

    • Tyrannosaurus Rex
    • Dinosaur Days
    • Diplodocus
    • Brachiosaurus
    • Parasaurolophus
    • Pterodactyl
    • Spinosaurus
    • Stegosaurus
    • Triceratops
    • Velociraptor
    • Giganotosaurus
    • Plesiosaurus

    There is plenty of information for Children on dinosaurs online, however there seems to much less for early or ESL readers. That’s why we have designed these. They should be more suitable for beginning readers of English.
