An incredible source of information about English words and a must if you are interested in Greek and Latin roots and affixes (see our separate entry here).
This is a huge alphabetical list of Greek and Latin roots ranging from the common to the unheard-of!
Interspersed in the alphabetical list are other topics such as habitats, palindromes, hand anatomy - to name but a few! See our separate listing here for more links.
Set of resources created by myself and colleague, David Bayne , to help students use Word, Excel and Access. We wanted students to practise for the Level 2 ICT Functional Skills exams, using a method that would be familiar to them. They all drive cars and need to get them serviced, so this seemed a suitable area to use.
Practice some of the skills needed for ICT Functional skills and also a bit of fun. Can be used individually, in pairs or groups. Two lots of 15 questions with fill-in answersheet attached.
Super set of three ICT task sheets that successfully embed Functional ICT, Functional English and even some Functional Maths!
Each task sheet involves composing, sending and replying to work-based emails: based in a dental surgery, a health centre and a travel agency.
Please also download the separate, very detailed, Functional Skills mapping document which includes differentiation ideas, teaching tips and embedding ideas.
