(PART 1 OF 2) COMPLETE Romeo and Juliet Unit designed for Year 9 SEN class! Would be suitable for use with a Low Ability Year 8 Class, a High Ability Year 7 Class, or a SEN Year 10 class as well. Can be used along side an original copy of the text, or with a graphic novel version (which is what I did) - all necessary quotes and pieces of evidence are included in the lessons. *Please note that there are so many materials in this unit that I am unable to load them all up together, as TES has size restrictions in place. This is PART 1 of 2 and includes all lessons, worksheets, writing frames, self assessment forms, activities and daily Writing Support sheets (for slower writers) from Lessons 1 to 8. **For lessons (and materials) 9-11 + Assessment and all Homework Assignments, please see PART 2.

A series of LOW ABILITY lessons (which could be scaffolded upwards for higher achieving classes) and activities designed to prepare students for the INFERENCE questions on their GCSE Exam! *Please note, some materials have been used/adapted that I did not create, but have sourced online.

* Please note, the unit is large and contains so much material that I cannot fit it all into one upload, and therefore it has been split into 2 sections! Part 1 contains regular lessons, and Part 2 contains assessments, assessment lessons and homework assignments. Included is all of the lessons, worksheets, writing frames, fill in the blanks, homework and assessment materials which I created for use with my SEN year 8 class. The unit requires access to the play "Sherlock Holmes and the Limehouse Horror" (I bought one copy and photocopied the text so each pair had a copy of each act between them), as well as to the episode "A Study in Pink" of the BBC's Sherlock series.

This is a lesson about Simon Armitage's The Clown Punk, suitable for SEN classes or low / middle ability groups from year 8 - 10. This includes a 50 slide Power Point presentation, printable writing support for slow writers, a copy of the poem with space for annotation, a printable paragraph writing frame and a custom made word search. The lesson focuses on the concept of archetypes, examines the context of the themes in the poem and the poet, provides step-by-step analysis of meaning, allows students time to locate and identify poetic devices, gives an example of a successful analysis paragraph, and has students compose their own piece of writing, before peer assessing, reflecting on peer assessment, and re-drafting their writing. Progress check's are included throughout. This can be scaled up for more able classes by removing the writing frames and additional support handouts. *I do not own the rights to the poem The Clown Punk

* Please note, due to the large size of this unit and the high number of supporting documents / materials included in this unit of work, I have had to split the unit into two sections, as combined it is too large to upload onto TES. Part 1 will include JUST the power point lessons and homework assignments. Part 2 will include all of the supporting materials such as writing frames, worksheets and activities. This is the full Coraline Unit which I developed for use with a SEN Year 7 class (though it could be used with a SEN Year 8 class or a regular ability Year 6 class), including all lessons, worksheets, activities, writing frames, homework and support materials. This is intended for use with the novel Coraline, and the film Coraline. There is no assessment for this unit, as my school does "exams" based on the new English GCSE's which are separate from the units being officially studied.

Included are TWO lessons examining the poem "Jerusalem" by William Blake, developed for Year 8 or 9 low ability / SEN classes, but also suited to a Year 7 group as well.

All additional materials (printable spider diagram to be glued into books, writing support frame for slower writers, paragraph writing frame, etc.) are included as well. *2-3 hours depending on ability level of class* Lesson 2 - Recall context, consider effects of Industrial Revolution, understanding what morals are, more detailed analysis of a specific metaphor, and then writing a paragraph about the writer's intentions.

The focus of the lesson is on exploring the author's background (context), considering the tone of the poem, identifying and locating poetic devices, and commenting on Agard's use of Non-Standard English. There are a number of opportunities for paired / group discussion, and areas where further extension can be scaled in if necessary (ex. expanding the discussion re: the deeper cultural and social meaning of the poem, which is only briefly covered in the lesson as it currently stands)
