Spectacular SPaG is a ready-to-use scheme of work that supports teachers with clear, progressive grammar lessons. The Summer block includes 6 small-step lessons, each aligned with the DfE’s English Appendix 2: Vocabulary, Grammar and Punctuation, with a focus on consolidation, independence and preparation for transition to secondary school.
Each SPaG lesson includes a PowerPoint presentation, an activity sheet and a differentiated worksheet. Activity sheets support active learning, while worksheets give pupils the opportunity to apply new skills through structured writing. All resources are differentiated at two levels to support a range of learners.
The scheme also includes Year 6 SPaG assessments in the style of GPS SATs tests, complete with mark schemes and answers, alongside an assessment tracker to support progress monitoring. A full set of lesson plans and a termly overview are included to support planning and coverage.
The Year 6 Summer spelling resources sit alongside these lessons, helping pupils secure key spelling patterns before moving on to secondary school.
Sessions are designed to last between 15-30 minutes and can be delivered flexibly depending on your setting. Lessons can be taught as standalone SPaG sessions or integrated into your main English teaching.
The remainder of the term focuses on revision, consolidation and application of SPaG knowledge through extended writing opportunities and SATs preparation.
Our Year 6 SPaG Summer term resources include grammar lessons, Year 6 SPaG worksheets, teaching slides and assessments designed to support consolidation after KS2 SATs. Lessons focus on applying grammar knowledge independently, improving fluency and preparing pupils for secondary school.
Topics include hyphens, the future perfect tense, passive voice, text organisation using headings and tables, and building cohesion in writing.
