Back 2 Basics is a carousel of activities aimed at giving children regular practise at the basic skills of reading, writing and number work. Each activity is planned to last approximately 10-15 minutes, and is ideal to be completed first thing in the morning or straight after lunch. The children complete one activity every day so it is best to create 5 groups within your classroom. As the teacher you can then decide which group you work with - for example you may like to work with the reading group.

The activities include:

  • 1x Reading activity
  • 1x Number activity
  • 1x Word or sentence activity linked to weekly spellings
  • 1x Times table activity
  • 1x Handwriting activity

These cards are best printed and laminated so that they can be used throughout the week and again the following year. Each week consists of 5 activity cards (one for every day of the week) They are not differentiated but some of the activities do have challenges to stretch early finishers.
