Salut (French) – Structured Vocabulary Support (Free Sample)
This structured vocabulary resource is designed to support learners who find German vocabulary harder to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. It focuses on the high-frequency German question word wer, explaining what it means in modern German and how its meaning has remained stable over time.
Rather than relying on simple translation, the resource shows how wer fits into a wider system of meaning: how it is used to ask about people, how it contrasts with other German question words, and why it does not mean the same thing as words like wo. Earlier forms included in the resource are linguistic reconstructions used by scholars to model how the word is understood to have developed. These are not recorded quotations and are included only where they help make the modern meaning clearer and more logical.
Where helpful, links are made to familiar patterns in English, such as the relationship between wer and who. This allows learners to anchor the German word in existing knowledge and supports cross-linguistic transfer, helping vocabulary feel less arbitrary and more connected.
Each panel draws attention to one clear idea at a time, such as continuity of meaning or differences between person-questions and place-questions, without requiring learners to memorise historical detail. Learners are not expected to remember dates, language stages, or technical terminology. Panels can be explored in order or revisited independently over time, reducing working-memory load and supporting flexible use in short sessions.
This resource is designed with dyslexic and neurodivergent learners in mind, particularly those who benefit from explicit structure, reduced verbal load, and visual anchoring. It supports recognition, confidence, and longer-term vocabulary retention when learners encounter wer again in lessons or reading. It does not replace teaching, practice, or repetition, but helps make repeated exposure more meaningful and effective.
The approach is grounded in evidence-based literacy practice and structured language explanation. Meaning is prioritised throughout, with historical context used only where it helps learners understand how the word works in present-day German .
What’s included
• A clear visual explanation of what wer means in modern German
• Explicit clarification that wer is used to ask about people
• Support for distinguishing wer from other German question words
• Simple black-and-white illustrations designed to anchor meaning and reduce verbal explanation
• Historically informed context used only to support understanding, not memorisation
How to use
Best used in short sessions (5–10 minutes), revisited over time. Start with what wer means today, then use the panels to support discussion and understanding. Panels do not need to be used all at once or in a fixed order. An adult guides use and decides when to stop.
This resource supports classroom learning, tutoring, and home education, but does not replace teaching or practice .
Who it’s for
• Dyslexic learners studying German
• KS3–KS4 pupils who struggle with vocabulary retention
• Parents, tutors, and intervention teachers
• Learners who benefit from explicit, structured language explanation

Salut (French) – Structured Vocabulary Support (Free Sample)
A structured vocabulary resource designed to support learners who find German vocabulary harder to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. This resource focuses on the high-frequency German word Kaninchen, explaining what it means in modern German and how its meaning developed over time.
Rather than relying on simple translation, the resource shows how Kaninchen is connected to earlier naming patterns for animals and to ideas of classification and familiarity. Earlier forms included in the resource are linguistic reconstructions used by scholars to model how the word is thought to have developed. They are not recorded quotations and are included only where they help make the modern meaning clearer and more logical.
Where helpful, links are made to familiar patterns in English, including how animal names can shift in form and usage over time. This allows learners to anchor the German word in existing knowledge and supports cross-linguistic transfer, rather than treating vocabulary as arbitrary.
Each panel draws attention to one clear idea at a time, such as naming, form, or continuity of meaning, without requiring learners to memorise historical detail. Learners are not expected to remember dates, language stages, or technical terminology. Panels can be explored in order or revisited independently over time, reducing working-memory load and supporting flexible use in short sessions.
The resource is designed with dyslexic and neurodivergent learners in mind, particularly those who benefit from explicit structure, reduced verbal load, and visual anchoring. It supports recognition, confidence, and longer-term vocabulary retention when learners encounter Kaninchen again in lessons or reading.
The accompanying photograph of a rabbit provides a clear, real-world visual anchor, reinforcing the modern meaning of Kaninchen as a concrete, living animal rather than an abstract vocabulary item.
What’s included
• A clear visual explanation of how Kaninchen developed and what it means in modern German
• Explicit clarification of meaning without relying on rote memorisation
• Simple black-and-white illustrations designed to anchor understanding and reduce verbal explanation
• Support for understanding semantic development without requiring memorisation of history
How to use

A structured vocabulary resource designed to support learners who find German vocabulary harder to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. This resource focuses on the high-frequency German word Pferd, explaining what it means in modern German and how its meaning developed over time.
Rather than relying on simple translation, the resource shows how Pferd is connected to earlier ideas of riding, transport, and everyday use. Earlier forms included in the resource are linguistic reconstructions used by scholars to model how the word is thought to have developed. They are not recorded quotations and are included only where they help make the modern meaning clearer and more logical.
Where helpful, links are made to familiar patterns in English, such as older or regional words for ‘horse’, and to related ideas of travel and riding. This allows learners to anchor the German word in existing knowledge and supports cross-linguistic transfer, rather than treating vocabulary as arbitrary.

A structured vocabulary resource designed to support learners who find German vocabulary harder to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. This resource focuses on the high-frequency German word Schlange, explaining what it means in modern German and how its meaning developed over time.
Rather than relying on simple translation, the resource shows how Schlange is connected to earlier ideas of winding, looping, and curving. Earlier forms included in the resource are linguistic reconstructions used by scholars to model how the word is thought to have developed. They are not recorded quotations and are included only where they help make the modern meaning clearer and more logical.
Where helpful, links are made to familiar patterns in English, such as words connected to looping, coiling, or bending. This allows learners to anchor the German word in existing knowledge and supports cross-linguistic transfer, rather than treating vocabulary as arbitrary.

Salut (French) – Structured Vocabulary Support (Free Sample)
This structured vocabulary resource supports learners who find German vocabulary difficult to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. It focuses on the high-frequency German word auch, explaining what it means in modern German and how its meaning developed over time.
Rather than relying on direct translation alone, the resource shows how auch is rooted in the idea of adding or including something more. Earlier forms are introduced only where they help make the modern meaning clearer and more logical. These earlier forms are linguistic reconstructions, used by scholars as explanatory models. They are not recorded quotations and are not treated as facts to be learned.
Where helpful, links are made to familiar patterns in English, including the connection between German auch and the English phrase to eke out, which still carries the older idea of adding or stretching something. This supports cross-linguistic transfer and helps learners see vocabulary as meaningful rather than arbitrary.
Each panel focuses on one clear idea at a time, such as inclusion, confirmation, or emphasis, without requiring learners to memorise historical detail. Learners are not expected to remember dates, language stages, or terminology. Panels can be explored in order or revisited independently, reducing working-memory load and supporting flexible use in short sessions.
The resource is designed with dyslexic and neurodivergent learners in mind. It prioritises explicit structure, reduced verbal load, and visual anchoring. It does not replace teaching or practice, but helps make repeated exposure more meaningful and effective over time.
The approach is grounded in evidence-based literacy practice and structured language explanation. Meaning comes first; historical context is used only where it supports understanding of how the word works in present-day German .
What’s included
• A clear visual explanation of what auch means in modern German
• Support for understanding auch as ‘also’, ‘too’, and as a word that confirms or adds emphasis
• Simple black-and-white illustrations designed to anchor meaning and reduce verbal explanation
• Careful links to English where they support understanding, without overloading learners
• Support for semantic understanding without requiring memorisation of history
How to use
Best used in short sessions (5–10 minutes), revisited over time. Start with what auch means today, then use the panels to support discussion and understanding. Panels do not need to be used all at once or in strict order. An adult guides use and decides when to stop.

This resource provides a core German vocabulary set focused on describing yourself, members of your family, and animals or pets. It includes the key words learners need to respond to common speaking and short writing tasks, such as personal descriptions, family descriptions, and simple questions about pets and birthdays.
I originally created this resource for my son while he was revising for a German speaking test. He understood the language content, but the combination of listening to a question, recalling vocabulary, planning a sentence, and speaking accurately at the same time created unnecessary difficulty. Making the vocabulary visible during revision changed the task from one of memory under pressure to one of language use.
This resource reduces cognitive load by separating vocabulary retrieval from sentence construction. Instead of needing to recall every word from memory, learners can see the vocabulary while practising. This allows them to focus their attention on the essential aspects of language production: structure, meaning, and accuracy.
For many neurodivergent learners, including those who are dyslexic or autistic, word retrieval under pressure can be a significant barrier. Difficulty finding a word does not mean the word is not known, but it can interrupt thinking, increase anxiety, and lead to disengagement. By removing the requirement to retrieve vocabulary at the same time as forming sentences, this resource helps prevent that breakdown.
Keeping the vocabulary visible also increases predictability and control. Learners can see the full set of expected words, select a manageable subset, rehearse responses repeatedly, and check accuracy independently. This supports learners who benefit from clear structure, reduced uncertainty, and consistent routines.
The vocabulary can be used as:
a word bank for speaking or writing
support when rehearsing likely assessment questions
a planning tool before writing
a reference for checking accuracy after producing spoken or written answers
a way to select and practise a small, personal vocabulary set
This approach supports confident, accurate communication in German. The emphasis is on successful language use, not rote memorisation or recall under pressure, allowing learners to demonstrate what they know and build fluency through supported practice.

Salut (French) – Structured Vocabulary Support (Free Sample)
A structured vocabulary resource designed to support learners who find German vocabulary harder to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. This resource focuses on the high-frequency German word Leben, explaining what it means in modern German and how its meaning developed over time.
Rather than relying on simple translation, the resource shows how Leben is connected to earlier ideas of staying, continuing, and remaining. Earlier forms included in the resource are linguistic reconstructions used by scholars to model how the word is thought to have developed. They are not recorded quotations and are included only where they help make the modern meaning clearer and more logical.
Where helpful, links are made to familiar patterns in English, such as the relationship between life and live, and older uses connected to continuing or remaining. This allows learners to anchor the German word in existing knowledge and supports cross-linguistic transfer, rather than treating German vocabulary as arbitrary.
Each panel draws attention to one clear idea at a time, such as continuity of form or a shift in meaning, without requiring learners to memorise historical detail. Learners are not expected to remember dates, language stages, or technical terminology. Panels can be explored in order or revisited independently over time, reducing working-memory load and supporting flexible use in short sessions.
This resource was designed with dyslexic and neurodivergent learners in mind, particularly those who benefit from explicit structure, reduced verbal load, and visual anchoring.

Understand imperative verbs and command words through real language you can see.
This downloadable resource uses a Structured Word Inquiry approach to help learners understand how the morpheme ‘imper’ links vocabulary and grammar through the idea of command and authority.
The accompanying image shows a real historical advertisement photographed inside an old Metropolitan line train carriage. Its headline is written as an imperative sentence, giving a clear, real-world example of how language is used to instruct, persuade, and impose an idea.
Rather than memorising grammar rules, learners explore how meaning develops from Latin into modern English, and how this meaning still shapes how sentences work today.
This pack includes:
A structured worksheet introducing the morpheme ‘imper’ through clear, step-by-step explanation
Explicit teaching of the Latin base ‘parāre’ and how meaning changes when prefixes are added
Guided activities linking the morpheme ‘imper’ to words such as ‘imperative’, ‘imperial’, ‘emperor’, and ‘empire’
Sentence-level work identifying and rewriting imperative sentences
A full answer key for checking and consolidation
This pack is ideal for:
Home educators
Learners in late Key Stage 2 and early Key Stage 3
Parents of dyslexic or neurodivergent learners
Families using Structured Word Inquiry
Teachers supporting grammar through meaning and structure
Designed by a qualified dyslexia specialist, this resource makes an abstract grammar concept concrete by anchoring it in real language, real history, and visible examples of command.

Salut (French) – Structured Vocabulary Support (Free Sample)
A structured vocabulary resource designed to support learners who find French vocabulary harder to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. This resource focuses on the common French adjective ‘méchant’, explaining how its meaning developed and how it is used in modern French.
Rather than relying on simple English translation, this resource shows how ‘méchant’ developed from earlier meanings connected to misfortune and harm, and how its meaning gradually shifted over time. This helps learners understand why ‘méchant’ does not map neatly onto a single English equivalent such as ‘mean’ or ‘nasty’, and how it functions in present-day French.
Historical information is included only where it clarifies meaning. Learners are not expected to remember dates, language stages, or historical terminology. The resource does not ask learners to memorise explanations or retell the history. History functions purely as a support for understanding how the word works today.
This resource was designed with dyslexic and neurodivergent learners in mind, particularly those who benefit from explicit structure, reduced verbal load, and visual anchoring. It supports recognition, confidence, and longer-term vocabulary retention when learners encounter méchant again in lessons or reading. It does not replace teaching, practice, or repetition, but helps make repeated exposure more effective over time.
The approach is grounded in evidence-based literacy practice and structured language explanation. Meaning is prioritised first, with historical context used only where it makes the word more logical and easier to retain.
What’s included
A clear visual explanation of how ‘méchant’ developed and what it means in modern French
Explicit clarification of how ‘méchant’ differs from simple English translations
Simple black-and-white illustrations designed to anchor meaning and reduce verbal explanation
Support for understanding semantic change without requiring memorisation of history
How to use
Best used in short sessions (5–10 minutes), revisited over time. Start with what ‘méchant’ means today, then use the images to support discussion. An adult guides use and decides when to stop.

This resource provides four-in-a-row word-grid games for practising reading and spelling words containing the /θ/ sound.
The sound in this set is /θ/. The phonetic symbol /θ/ is part of the International Phonetic Alphabet. In English, this sound is most commonly written as ‘th’, as in thin and thick.
The words are organised by sound, rather than by spelling pattern or word type. Across the grids, words progress from shorter, more transparent items to longer or more complex words, allowing adults to choose an appropriate level for the learner.
How the game works: 4 in a row
Players take turns choosing a word and marking it on the grid.
The aim is to be the first to mark four words in a straight line (across, down, or diagonally).
Unlike the commercial version of this game, learners may start anywhere on the grid.
They do not have to begin at the bottom.
A word can only be marked if it is read or spelled accurately, depending on how the activity is being used.
All grids use the same four-in-a-row format, so learners can focus on the words rather than learning new game rules.
Sound contrast: ‘th’ and ‘f’
One grid in this pack is designed specifically for learners who find it difficult to distinguish between the sounds /θ/ (‘th’) and /f/.
This grid includes contrast words that differ only by the target sound, allowing learners to practise hearing and producing the difference between ‘th’ and ‘f’ while playing the same game.
The focus in this grid is sound discrimination, rather than spelling rules.
High-frequency and curriculum words
Some grids include longer or less transparent words that learners may encounter frequently in real reading, even if they are not yet confident readers.
For example, a learner who struggles with reading may still meet words such as ‘thousand’ in mathematics, particularly if they are more advanced in this area. Including these words allows learners to practise recognising and reading them within a supported, sound-focused activity, rather than encountering them only under pressure.
These words are included deliberately and sparingly, and are intended for guided use, not as first-attempt decoding targets.
What this resource is (and is not)
This resource is a set of word-grid games designed for repeated practice with the /θ/ sound.
It is intended for:
guided reading or spelling practice
targeted sound discrimination work
short, repeatable phonics activities
It is not intended to function as a standalone assessment or tracking tool.

Salut (French) – Structured Vocabulary Support (Free Sample)
A structured vocabulary resource designed to support learners who find French vocabulary harder to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. This resource focuses on the common French adjective ennuyeux, explaining how its meaning developed and why it is used to describe boredom in modern French.
Rather than relying on simple translation, this resource shows how ennuyeux developed from earlier meanings connected to irritation and emotional burden, and how its meaning gradually shifted over time. This helps learners understand why ennuyeux does not map neatly onto English equivalents such as boring or annoying, and how it functions in present-day French.
Historical information is included only where it clarifies meaning. Learners are not expected to remember dates, language stages, or historical terminology. The resource does not ask learners to memorise explanations or retell the history. History functions purely as a support for understanding how the word works today.
This resource was designed with dyslexic and neurodivergent learners in mind, particularly those who benefit from explicit structure, reduced verbal load, and visual anchoring.

Salut (French) – Structured Vocabulary Support (Free Sample)
A structured vocabulary resource designed to support learners who find French vocabulary harder to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. This resource focuses on the common French adjective moderne, explaining what it means, where it comes from, and how it is used to contrast the present with what came before.
Rather than treating moderne as a simple synonym for ‘new’, this resource shows how the word developed from Latin forms meaning ‘just now’ and ‘belonging to the present time’. Over centuries, moderne came to describe people, ideas, buildings, art, and ways of living that belong to the present age, often explicitly contrasted with earlier periods. This helps learners understand that moderne is about time and perspective, not novelty alone.
Historical information is included only where it clarifies meaning. Learners are not expected to remember dates, historical periods, or language stages. The resource does not ask learners to memorise explanations or retell the history. History functions as a support for understanding how the word operates in modern French, not as content in its own right.
This resource was designed with dyslexic and neurodivergent learners in mind, particularly those who benefit from explicit structure, reduced verbal load, and visual anchoring. It supports recognition, confidence, and longer-term vocabulary retention when learners encounter moderne again in lessons or reading. It does not replace teaching, practice, or repetition, but helps make repeated exposure more effective over time.
The approach is grounded in evidence-based literacy practice and structured language explanation. Meaning is prioritised first, with historical context used only where it makes the word more logical and easier to retain.
What’s included?
A clear visual timeline showing how moderne developed from Latin into Modern French
Explicit explanation of how moderne contrasts the present with earlier periods
Simple black-and-white illustrations designed to anchor meaning and reduce verbal explanation
Support for understanding moderne as a time-based adjective rather than a translation shortcut
How to use
Best used in short sessions (5–10 minutes), revisited over time. Start with what moderne means today, then use the images to support discussion. An adult guides use and decides when to stop.

Free downloadable sample resource
This resource introduces the French word salut using a structured, meaning-first approach designed to support vocabulary understanding and retention. It is offered as a free sample so that parents and tutors can see exactly how the approach works before choosing other French resources in the range.
Rather than asking learners to memorise isolated words, this resource explains where a word comes from and how its meaning has developed over time. This can help vocabulary feel more logical and connected, particularly for learners who struggle with rote memorisation. Historical information is used only to explain meaning and is not content to be learned or recalled.
This resource is a complete item in its own right and also a representative example of the design principles used across the wider French structured vocabulary collection.
What’s included
A clear, visual timeline showing how salut developed from Latin to Modern French
Simple illustrations to anchor meaning and reduce verbal explanation
Links to related English forms where helpful
Guidance designed to support recognition, understanding, and confidence
How to use
Best used in short sessions (around 5–10 minutes), revisited over time. An adult guides discussion and decides when to stop. This resource supports learning but does not replace teaching or practice.
It should not be used to teach ahead of school, to test a child, or to require memorisation of explanations or history. Turning the content into a quiz or recall task is likely to reduce its effectiveness.
Who it’s for
Dyslexic learners studying French
Secondary-age learners who find vocabulary retention difficult
Parents, tutors, and intervention teachers supporting French learning
Learners who benefit from explicit, structured language explanation
What this resource is not
Not a self-teaching programme
Not a replacement for French lessons or tutoring
Not designed for unsupervised independent study
Not intended for testing, quizzing, or memorisation
What success looks like
Success at this stage means recognising the word when it appears again, understanding that words can change meaning over time, and feeling more confident around vocabulary. Understanding word history supports recognition and understanding, but it does not automatically improve spelling or writing accuracy.

Salut (French) – Structured Vocabulary Support (Free Sample)
A structured vocabulary resource designed to support learners who find French vocabulary harder to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. This resource focuses on the common French adjective neuf, explaining how its meaning of ‘new’ developed and why it does not always behave in the same way as the English word new.
Rather than relying on simple translation, this resource shows how neuf developed from earlier ideas of freshness, recentness, and renewal, and how its meaning has remained closely tied to condition rather than age. This helps learners understand why neuf is used for something newly made or unused, while other French words may be used to describe something recent or young.
Historical information is included only where it clarifies meaning. Learners are not expected to remember dates, language stages, or historical terminology. The resource does not ask learners to memorise explanations or retell the history. History functions purely as a support for understanding how the word works today.
This resource was designed with dyslexic and neurodivergent learners in mind, particularly those who benefit from explicit structure, reduced verbal load, and visual anchoring. It supports recognition, confidence, and longer-term vocabulary retention when learners encounter neuf again in lessons or reading. It does not replace teaching, practice, or repetition, but helps make repeated exposure more effective over time.
The approach is grounded in evidence-based literacy practice and structured language explanation. Meaning is prioritised first, with historical context used only where it makes the word more logical and easier to retain.
What’s included
A clear visual explanation of how neuf developed and what it means in modern French
Explicit clarification of how neuf differs from English new in everyday use
Simple black-and-white illustrations designed to anchor meaning and reduce verbal explanation
Support for understanding condition-based meaning rather than relying on translation alone
How to use
Best used in short sessions (5–10 minutes), revisited over time. Start with what neuf means today, then use the images to support discussion. An adult guides use and decides when to stop. This resource supports classroom learning, tutoring, and home education, but does not replace teaching or practice.

Salut (French) – Structured Vocabulary Support (Free Sample)
A structured vocabulary resource designed to support learners who find French vocabulary harder to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. This resource focuses on the high-frequency French word bâtiment, explaining how its meaning developed from the idea of building or constructing into the modern sense of a building or structure.
Rather than focusing on definition alone, this resource shows how bâtiment is built from an earlier verb meaning ‘to build’ and how the noun ending transforms an action into the thing that results from it. This helps learners understand why the word means what it does today, rather than relying on recall alone.
Historical information is included only to clarify meaning. Learners are not expected to remember dates, language stages, or historical terminology. The resource does not ask learners to retell the history or memorise explanations. History functions as a support for understanding, not as an outcome in itself.
This resource was designed with dyslexic and neurodivergent learners in mind, particularly those who benefit from explicit structure, reduced verbal load, and visual anchoring. It supports recognition, confidence, and longer-term vocabulary retention when learners encounter the word again in lessons or reading. It does not replace teaching, practice, or repetition, but can make repeated exposure more effective over time.
The approach is grounded in evidence-based literacy practice and structured language explanation. Meaning is prioritised first, with historical context used only where it makes the word more logical and easier to retain.
What’s included
A clear visual timeline showing how bâtiment developed from early building verbs into a modern noun
Explicit explanation of how the action of building became the name for the thing built
Simple black-and-white illustrations designed to anchor meaning and reduce verbal explanation
Links to related words and meanings that help learners see patterns rather than isolated facts
How to use
Best used in short sessions (5–10 minutes), revisited over time. Start with what bâtiment means in modern French, then use the images to support discussion. An adult guides use and decides when to stop. This resource supports classroom learning, tutoring, and home education, but does not replace teaching or practice.
Who it’s for
Dyslexic learners studying French
KS3–KS4 pupils who struggle with vocabulary retention
Parents, tutors, and intervention teachers

Salut (French) – Structured Vocabulary Support (Free Sample)
A structured vocabulary resource designed to support learners who find French vocabulary harder to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise. This resource focuses on the high-frequency French word maison, showing how its meaning developed over time and how it connects to related forms in English, including mansion.
Rather than relying on definition-only teaching, this resource makes meaning more stable by showing how maison grew from earlier ideas of staying, dwelling, and household. Historical information is used as an explanatory tool to support understanding, not as content to be learned or recalled. Learners are not expected to remember dates, language stages, or historical detail.
This resource was designed with dyslexic and neurodivergent learners in mind, particularly those who benefit from explicit structure, reduced verbal load, and visual anchoring. It supports recognition, confidence, and sense-making around vocabulary encountered in lessons or reading. It does not replace practice, repetition, or formal teaching, but can make repeated exposure more effective over time.
The approach is grounded in evidence-based literacy practice and structured language explanation. Meaning is prioritised first, with history used only where it clarifies why the word behaves as it does.
What’s included
A clear visual timeline showing how maison developed from Latin to Modern French
Parallel reference to the English word mansion to highlight shared origins and semantic change
Simple black-and-white illustrations designed to anchor meaning and reduce verbal explanation
Guidance on how meanings broadened or narrowed over time without requiring memorisation
How to use
Best used in short sessions (5–10 minutes), revisited over time. Begin with the modern meaning, use the images to support discussion, and stop before cognitive load increases. An adult guides use and decides when to pause. This resource supports classroom learning and home education but does not replace teaching or practice.

Salut (French) – Structured Vocabulary Support (Free Sample)
A structured resource designed to support dyslexic learners who find French vocabulary hard to retain when words are taught as isolated items to memorise.
Rather than focusing on definitions alone, this resource shows how the word ancien is built, where it comes from, and how its meaning has developed over time in French — with links to English where this supports understanding. By making structure and meaning visible, the resource helps learners approach vocabulary with greater confidence and less reliance on rote memorisation.
The historical information is included to explain meaning, not as content to be learned or memorised. Learners are not expected to remember dates, terminology, or stages of language history.
This approach is grounded in evidence-based literacy practice and was originally developed for my own dyslexic son to support his experience of learning French in school. It has been refined through real use, focusing on what reduces cognitive load and helps words “stick” over time.
What’s included
A clear visual timeline showing how ancien developed from Latin to Modern French
Simple illustrations to anchor meaning and reduce verbal explanation
Links to related English forms where helpful
Guidance designed to support recognition, understanding, and confidence
How to use
Best used in short sessions (5–10 minutes), revisited over time. An adult guides discussion and decides when to stop. This resource supports classroom learning but does not replace teaching or practice.

Each card features a word with the Latin root ‘quadr’, helping learners make lasting connections between spelling, structure, and meaning.
At the back of the pack, you’ll find a simple progress tracker to help you monitor when a word is successfully blended and when it becomes automatic. It’s a gentle way to celebrate growth, especially helpful for dyslexic and neurodivergent learners.
Made by a dyslexia specialist, this resource fits beautifully into a home education routine or personalised learning plan. I highly recommend checking my social media for extra ideas on how to use the cards in creative, sensory-friendly ways.

These CVCC word cards can be used for spelling and decoding activities.
These cards are not intended to be used as traditional flashcards – rather, they are to be used during multi-sensory activities – e.g. practising spellings using ‘window pens’ or playing Snakes and Ladders and reading a word with each go. Please check through this album of ideas.
Strictly speaking, ‘nd’ is a ‘consonant blend’ or ‘consonant cluster’. This is where two or three consonants appear in a syllable without being separated by vowels, and they are usually found at the end of words. More traditional phonics programmes require learners to ‘learn’ a blend much in the same way as they would a single grapheme. However, this strategy puts a burden on working memory, and effectively means that learners have to learn a much greater number of letter-sound correspondances.
This resource targets ‘nd’ ending words. However, learners should be taught to decode and blend each letter-sound correspondance in the word.
At the end of the document, there is a table to enable you to record your learner’s progress.

‘Restaurant’ is such a ubiquitous word. Nearly every European language has a version that is similar in structure.
I took out my etymology dictionaries (my pile is growing: French, Swedish, German) to find its root. It turns out it springs from a Latin root (unsurprisingly) ultimately meaning ‘to restore’.
The outliers are the Celtic languages … now, if I could just get my hands on a Welsh etymology dictionary …
You can download (for free) a summary of the etymology, translations of the word in different Indo-European languages, and a list of related words to support vocabulary expansion.
Three wordseaches to help consolidate fluency when reading CVCC words.
All of the words in my wordseaches read ‘Left to Right’, as you would find in a book. None of the words will be diagonal, backwards or vertical.

I’ve recently taken a trip to Sweden where many of the baked goods contain cinnamon, saffron and cardamon. We particularly liked the Pepparkakor Ginger thins.
Inspired by the smells and sights of Sweden, I started looking into the etymology of some of the spice related words.
This resource explores the following spices: cinnamon, ginger, cardamon, saffron and cloves.
The resource includes:
1 - a card exploring the etymology of each word listed above. Some learners may prefer to read this for themselves, but it could also be used as a teaching aid for an adult.
2 - a card summarising the information in card 1. Some learners may find this more accessible, and it can be used alongside the fuller explanation.
3 - Each word translated into other Indo-European languages. It’s interested to trace the word across the continent, and learners can be encouraged to look at the differences and similarities between the way the words are rendered in different languages.
5 - For each word listed above, a further list of words that are related (etymologically). Learners might be encouraged to look the words up in a dictionary, and to explore how and why they're related to the source word, or to create sentences using these words.
These cards can be used for spelling and decoding activities.

This resource reveals the meaning behind the phrase 'Expecto Patronus'.
If your learner isn't a fan of the 'Harry Potter' novels, there's no reference to them in the resource, so they can still be used.
The resource examines the morphemes 'ex', 'spic', 'spec' and 'patr'. It includes:
1 - an exploration of the target morpheme. Some learners may prefer to read this for themselves, but it could also be used as a teaching aid for an adult.

On many a visit to France, I'd noticed that the bookshops shared the same label as the place where we borrow books in English. This resource explores why there is this difference between 'library' in English, and 'librairie' in French, and many other Indo-European languages. The resource includes:
1 - a card exploring the etymology of the word library. Some learners may prefer to read this for themselves, but it could also be used as a teaching aid for an adult.
2 - a card summarising the information in card 1. Some learners may find this more accessible, and it can be used alongside the fuller explanation.
3 - 'Library' translated into other Indo-European languages
4 - 'Bookshop' tanslated into other Indo-European languages.
Learners can be encouraged to look at the differences and similarities between the way the words are rendered in different languages.
5 - A list of words that are related (etymologically) to 'library'. Learners might be encouraged to look the words up in a dictionary, and to explore how and why they're related to the source word, or to create sentences using these words.
