We are thrilled to tell you more about the resources that we have uploaded to our website this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NEW: <\/strong>GPS Let\u2019s Talk<\/strong> \u2013 we are very excited about this brand hew range for GPS. Many of our members use our Maths Let\u2019s talk series already; so, we decided to create something similar for GPS. Let\u2019s Talk is a series of PowerPoints which contain a series of common misconceptions about GPS, as discussed by a group of children – but which child is correct? How are the others incorrect?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Concept cartoons are a great way to assess understanding at the start, during or at the end of a unit of work. They can be used for retrieval practice and be an alternative way of doing Y6 SATs revision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This month we have uploaded the Word Class pack; further packs will be added in the coming months.<\/p>\n\n\n
