COMPANION VIDEO NOW AVAILABLE (EMBEDDED AFTER PREVIEW PICTURES IN PRODUCT DESCRIPTION) Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words.

Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included. Lesson Snapshot Title: Useful Robots Genre: Nonfiction (Informational passage) Subject: Science & Technology (Engineering/Robotics) Primary Topic: How robots developed and help people Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): P Support pages included: Pre-reading trivia, mixed questions, vocabulary activities, creative writing prompt, extension activities, and an answer key. QA notes on support pages: Support content generally matches the passage; however, the support pages use “automaton” (singular) while the passage uses “automata” (plural), and an extension prompt suggests “hills,” which is not stated in the passage (the passage names rocks and dust). What This Lesson Teaches Best Robots have a history: Explains that long ago people created “automata” that moved using steam, air, water, or falling weights. Modern robots and factory work: Describes an early industrial robot, Unimate, working in 1961 at a General Motors plant handling hot metal parts that were tough and dangerous for people. How robots learn repeatable motions: Shows how a person can guide a robot’s movements while sensors send signals to a computer that stores a pattern to repeat the job. Robots go where people can’t: Highlights the rover Opportunity exploring Mars for years (2004–2018) and sending back clues from rocks and dust. Big idea across time: Connects early moving devices to today’s robots as tools that learned to move, repeat, and help humans discover more. Learning Goals Students will explain what “automata” were and what powered them. Students will describe why Unimate’s factory job mattered for people. Students will identify how a robot can be “taught” motions and then repeat them. Students will summarize how robots can help in places that are risky, far away, or hard to reach. Students will use details from the text to tell what Opportunity did on Mars and what it sent back. Key Vocabulary From the Text automata — moving devices from long ago; not thinking machines. program — give a machine instructions to do a job. industrial — related to factories and making things. sensors — parts that notice and send signals to a computer. rover — a robot vehicle that travels to explore places.

This Guided Reading Book - Clean Hands, Healthy Bodies (Level H) includes: Guided Reading Color Label (front cover x1) This is a quick way to match the book’s demands to what students can generally handle.. The overall goal is to use the level/color to pick books for several smaller groups. To qualify for a certain level, a student is expected to read a book from that level with about 90–94% accuracy. If a student is consistently accurate and understands, move up a level. If the student is struggling at that level, drop down and add more support. Each student will improve at completely different rates, but it is generally one of the best ways to check progress across the class. DOWNLOAD THE CATALOG TO VIEW ALL GUIDED READING BOOKS AVAILABLE (SORTED LEVELS A-Z) Pre-Reading Question (x1) Teacher asks the prompt aloud, can be while showing the cover or first page. Students share what they already know, or make educated guesses from the cover. Prompt them to use the target vocabulary. Write some of their responses on the board to look back at during the reading. Vocabulary Words (x5) Introduce the five words, best doing it one at a time. Start by saying it, while students repeat and then see if anyone knows what it means before reading further. Read through the meaning and try to briefly connect each word to a picture or gesture so it’s meaningful. Ask students to flip through the book pages and point to where they see each of the vocabulary words. While reading the book pause upon coming across one of the vocab words or read the sentence twice to make sure students understand the word has appeared. Optional: Ask students to raise hands whenever they see/hear one of the new words.

Run the lesson You may have already looked at a few of the pages together, but you can show them some of the pictures again first to set meaning. Depending on how much time you have and how familiar your students are with guided reading class, you may want to read the book aloud first with the group first. Students whisper or partner read, while you listen in. If time, do it as a group, one student reading a page each. Use the guided page’s prompts to coach: “Check the picture / does it make sense?” “Point under the words / try the first sound” “Reread the sentence smoothly”. Try to focus more on one student per session (rotating every time), so you can work out if they are ready to move up or need to move down a level. Comprehension Questions (back cover x3) This is your way to check that students didn’t just say the words, but actually understood the text. First, let students answer by pointing to the page/picture and saying a short sentence. After any answer, follow with: “Show me where you found that in the text.” In bigger groups, have partners answer first (10–20 seconds), then call on 2–3 students to share. Differentiation tips: Emerging speakers/struggling readers: oral + pointing On-level: oral in a full sentence Higher: one written sentence or draw + label Book Snapshot Title: Clean Hands, Healthy Bodies Genre: Nonfiction (informational) Subject: Health & Safety / Science Primary Topic: When and how to wash hands to stop germs Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): H What This Book Teaches Best Why washing hands matters: it “keeps germs away” and helps prevent germs from spreading to other people.

Each student will improve at completely different rates, but it is generally one of the best ways to check progress across the class. DOWNLOAD THE CATALOG TO VIEW ALL GUIDED READING BOOKS AVAILABLE (SORTED LEVELS A-Z) Pre-Reading Question (x1) Teacher asks the prompt aloud, can be while showing the cover or first page. Students share what they already know, or make educated guesses from the cover. Prompt them to use the target vocabulary. Write some of their responses on the board to look back at during the reading. Vocabulary Words (x5) Introduce the five words, best doing it one at a time. Start by saying it, while students repeat and then see if anyone knows what it means before reading further. Read through the meaning and try to briefly connect each word to a picture or gesture so it’s meaningful. Ask students to flip through the book pages and point to where they see each of the vocabulary words. While reading the book pause upon coming across one of the vocab words or read the sentence twice to make sure students understand the word has appeared. Optional: Ask students to raise hands whenever they see/hear one of the new words. Guided Reading Pages (x10) Check the book snapshot (below) for: primary topic - do you need to prep extra reading or intro materials on this? what is taught best - decide on 1-2 bullets to focus on, use the prompt or words provided here for best results. learning goals - what you are checking for students to be able to do after the session, elicit answers using prompts or words provided. key vocabulary (see section above). questions overview - so you know what is coming up and if you need to prep extra materials to assist understanding. Run the lesson You may have already looked at a few of the pages together, but you can show them some of the pictures again first to set meaning. Depending on how much time you have and how familiar your students are with guided reading class, you may want to read the book aloud first with the group first. Students whisper or partner read, while you listen in. If time, do it as a group, one student reading a page each. Use the guided page’s prompts to coach: “Check the picture / does it make sense?” “Point under the words / try the first sound” “Reread the sentence smoothly”. Try to focus more on one student per session (rotating every time), so you can work out if they are ready to move up or need to move down a level. Comprehension Questions (back cover x3) This is your way to check that students didn’t just say the words, but actually understood the text. First, let students answer by pointing to the page/picture and saying a short sentence. After any answer, follow with: “Show me where you found that in the text.” In bigger groups, have partners answer first (10–20 seconds), then call on 2–3 students to share. Differentiation tips: Emerging speakers/struggling readers: oral + pointing On-level: oral in a full sentence Higher: one written sentence or draw + label Book Snapshot Title: Reading Labels and Names Genre: Nonfiction (informational) Subject: Reading / Life Skills Primary Topic: Labels give facts and clues in daily life Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): H What This Book Teaches Best Labels are “like a clue” that give “important information” and “facts about an object.” Labels tell what is inside or what something is (e.g., a box labeled “Orange,” a jar labeled “strawberry jam”). Labels and names help people stay organized and find the right item (a bin labeled “Toys,” a library label that says “Fiction.”). Labels can keep people safe and help them make careful choices (a sign that says “Wet Floor.”). Reading labels helps every day because labels “give facts and solve mysteries.” Learning Goals Students will explain what the book says a label is like and what it gives (clues, information, facts). Students will describe how a label tells what is inside an object using an example from the text. Students will identify how labels help keep spaces organized and clean using details from the text. Students will explain how a label can help keep people safe, using the “Wet Floor” sign example. Students will describe how names on items (like an envelope) help people know who something is for. Key Vocabulary From the Text clue — something that helps you figure something out. information — facts that help you know something. object — a thing you can see or touch. envelope — paper cover that holds a letter. mysteries — things you are trying to figure out. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What labels do you notice that give you important information? Comprehension questions: What does the book say a label is like? Which label in the book helps keep the room clean? According to the book, how do labels help every day? Printing Tips 1. Best Printing Method (Recommended) “Booklet” Printing (Best if Available) If your printer or PDF viewer supports Booklet Printing , use this. Settings to use: Print mode: Booklet Paper size: Letter or A4 (either works) Orientation: Landscape Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Scaling: Fit to printable area Booklet subset: First test: Front sides only Then: Back sides only This will automatically: Pair pages correctly Put the cover on the outside Align everything for folding After printing, fold in half and staple along the spine . 2. If “Booklet” Printing Is NOT Available You can still print this correctly with manual duplex printing . Step-by-step: Open the PDF. Choose Print . Set: Orientation: Landscape Pages per sheet: 1 Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Print all pages . Because each PDF page already contains two facing book pages, the result will still fold cleanly into a book. Thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership.

CK Phonic Worksheets
Special Resources, ELA, Special Education Needs (SEN), Language Development, Phonics, Reading, Spelling, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, 3, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
This is a pack of 42 Phonic worksheets to teach the digraph 'ck', plus flashcards and a 2 no-prep GAMES! These worksheets are designed to be worked in order as they start by developing the child's phonemic awareness of the new sound in words, and progress to reading and spelling words with the new sound, to reading passages and writing a short dictation. These sheets are LETRS and UK GOV requirements aligned. These worksheets can be used with other phonic programmes provided that the pupil has the necessary phonic knowledge to complete them This pack of CK phonic worksheets presumes that children can bland CVC words and have a working knowledge of consonant blends, but may still need support to read and spell using them. These ckWorksheets can help all children in the class succeed, even the lower third and those with special needs, as their highly structured nature helps to reduce the burden on the working memory which leads to less frustration for the child. What makes these worksheets special? I have a powerful three-step process which I use with my special needs pupils, which is worked out over the course of the worksheets: 1. See it!where we focus on becoming aware of the new sound in words. This involves first hearing the new sound in words and then seeing it in words (tracking). 2. Sound-it-out!Having learnt to see the new sound in words, we learn to sound out these words to read and write them. We begin by usingsound-it-out boxesfor reading and spelling which help the child to segment the word prior to blending the sounds together. Once the child can read and write individual words, we work on fluency by building familiarity with the common words in the new sound family. Once the child can sound the words out to read and spell confidently, we move on to recognising them/using them in longer reading and dictation passages, as soon as the child is able. There are fluency triangles as well as 2 reading passages with comprehension exercises and one dictation passage, with a page in the workbook dedicated to it, with room for a picture, which again cements understanding. 3. Write it! Incorporated into the above two steps, we constantly write the new sound. This adds a multi-sensory dimension to our work - we see with our eyes, we sound it with our mouth parts and voice, and then we move by writing. All three steps work together to help the child feel in control of his/her learning and to become a successful, confident learner. We finish each sound with a dictation which culminates our work before we move on to the next sound. I try to give this a week after we finish the book, to act as revision. The dictation: Read this passage to your pupil, who should write it. Have the child read his/her work and check for errors. Make sure the writing is completely accurate before saying the child has finished, including full stops and capital letters correctly used. Two fun, no-prep games close the unit of work making learning fun and providing a non-threatening way for children to consolidate their learning. Flashcards are included with space to make more if appropriate. What is included in the pack: A front cover 42 Activities based on the 'Sound it out' principles.

This gondolas reading comprehension with lesson plan includes: Visualization (on the front cover) Start your lesson by taking a minute to think and share something about the topic. Read the script aloud (slowly), perhaps prepare some music or sound effects. Student close their eyes and let their imaginations wander. Students open their eyes, read the question aloud and give them a few minutes to complete. Ask a few students to share or keep answers until the end to compare with what they learn in the passage. Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers or to take home. There are several activities, each one requiring a different skill. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question and additional facts. Answer Key There are answers for the multiple-choice questions, written response questions have sample answers, vocabulary answers and if there is a summary question then a sample summary will be provided as well. Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included. Lesson Snapshot Title: Gondolas Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Social Studies (places/culture) Primary Topic: Gondolas in Venice: design, history, and use Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): Q What This Lesson Teaches Best How Venice’s canals and bridges shape daily transportation, making boats important for visiting, carrying food, and crossing town. How a gondolier can steer with one oar using a carved wooden holder called a forcola and a smooth sculling motion. How gondola design supports steering, including being slightly asymmetrical to help one oar work better. How gondolas changed over time (older styles; “banana-shaped” modern gondola in the 1800s; laws affecting appearance). How gondolas are still used today (rides for visitors, traghetti ferries across the Grand Canal, and racing in regattas ). Learning Goals Students will describe why boats are important in Venice using details from the passage. Students will explain how a gondolier steers a gondola with one oar and a forcola. Students will identify one design feature that helps the gondola steer straighter (slight asymmetry). Students will describe how gondolas changed in shape and appearance over time, based on the text. Students will explain what traghetti are and what they do in Venice. Students will describe one way gondola traditions continue today (rides or regattas). Key Vocabulary From the Text forcola — carved wooden holder that supports and guides the oar. sculling — smooth rowing motion used to move and steer. asymmetrical — not the same on both sides. traghetti — small ferries that carry people across the Grand Canal. regattas — boat races where gondoliers race with skill and pride.

Pages come in varied styles and graduated difficulty, with an optional “color it in” step—and some themes invite quick calculations to match the task. These mazes are student-friendly, classroom-ready, and perfect for literacy warmups, seasonal units, fast-finisher bins, centers, sub plans, or home learning extensions. The playful, structured format builds problem-solving, attention to detail, and fine-motor control while reinforcing themed content in a motivating way. Note: Unlike many themed products, not all word-list words appear on the maze pages. To support full vocabulary coverage, we’ve released a companion word list you can find in the links section.

Students navigate the maze, encountering branches and cul-de-sacs that build attention and planning. Most pages include a tiny follow-up box—students draw or label 2–3 target words from a small word box, add a quick count, or color in the scene—so the activity reinforces both content and skills in a highly engaging format. Each completed set includes: A themed maze page. A simple student instruction strip. An answer key showing the solved path for teacher support or self-checking Themes Included These mazes cover a wide range of fun, age-appropriate themes, including: Seasons & Holidays (e.g., Halloween, Easter, Valentine’s Day) Math-Lite Connections (e.g., quick counts, number words) Everyday Topics (e.g., Animals, Weather, School) Special Units (e.g., Health, Earth Day, Sports, Kindness) Each topic reflects students’ real-life experiences and interests while strengthening problem-solving, visual scanning, and fine-motor control in a playful, highly visual way. Easy extensions (optional): Time it: solve once in pencil, then try to beat the time in pen Retell the route using sequence words (first, next, then, finally) Count intersections or turns and graph the results Write a 1–2 sentence mini-story about the scene using the target words Design a tiny maze in the corner for a partner to solve Differentiation tips: Offer a finger-trace pass before pencils for emerging learners Highlight the borders of the correct region on first attempts Use thicker-line versions or simpler pages to build confidence Pair roles: “navigator” gives directions; “driver” traces the path For similar downloads and other frees, do check out Cored Group on TeachSimple.
