Get your class prepared for their lesson on speech by using this Year 5 Direct and Indirect Speech Prior Learning worksheet. This resource includes three varied fluency questions, two reasoning questions and an application question in a ready-to-complete format. All the questions are based on an objective from year 4 which links to the main learning in this lesson.

This is a great resource to use at the beginning of your lesson or the day before to give you an idea of what children already know. By doing this, you can plan who might need additional support or extra challenge in your main lesson. There's a handy answer sheet included to make marking easy, or it can be used as a peer or self-assessment tool.
