I hope you had an excellent summer!
Key Stage 2 (2nd to 5th Grade)
Good to hear of students working through last weeks 11+ maths paper and, as requested, here's a the equivalent 11+ English paper.
These papers are ideal to help prepare students for entrance exams to many High Schools starting in year 7.
Key Stage 3 (6th to 8th Grade)
'Finding the nth term' or 'sequences' are fairly popular non calculator exam questions, and usually taught around year 8 / 9. Once you get the idea, they should be fairly straightforward (?).
Key Stage 4 (9th and 10th Grade)
One of the lessons I distinctly remember from school (a very long time ago), was being taught to factorise quadratics by Dr F.
To be honest, I found the topic quite difficult at the time ...
Have a great week

PS. And finally:
There are around 171,000 words in the English language - 1700 of them were invented by Shakespeare.
