DiaGram enables a teacher to profile each pupil's understanding of the grammar and "sentence-level" skills required by the National Literacy Strategy, and to pinpoint individual learning needs. Fully photocopiable, the targeted worksheets use age-appropriate vocabulary and contexts to focus on the language knowledge expected of all pupils entering secondary school. Follow-up tests help to ensure that new learning is secure. The focused worksheets and tests cover all the basic parts of speech (nouns, verbs, pronouns, adverbs, prepositions,etc), punctuation (capital letters, stops, apostrophes, speech marks, etc), and effective use of language (eg paragraphing, metaphor, alliteration, rhythm, etc). The pack offers a flexible, dip-in assessment and teaching resource, matched to the National Literacy Strategy requirements for Key Stage 3 and the worksheets should be useful for assessment, consolidation and quick and effective catch-up at Year 7, on entry to secondary school. The targeted worksheets and tests, all with answers - should be useful for homework and revision - helping to ensure systematic planning, teaching and progression, in addition to covering aspects of grammar in which many teachers themselves feel insecure.
