Year 8 Scheme of work Winter's Tale

(0)
This is a scheme of work focused on the Shakespeare play A Winter's Tale. The focus of the unit is on the dramatization of a set scene: the scene were Hermione awakens from being a statue. The central concept is on directorial choices and how this changes the audience's reaction to the scene. This is an excellent unit to complete at the end of the year and there is a lot of fun to be had in creating lollipop puppets and performing the play as mini puppet shows.

Year 7 animal poetry scheme of work

(0)
This is a half term unit of work aimed at helping students to write a poem of their own. The principle of the unit is that students learn the techniques used by poets and use these techniques themselves, referring to themselves as a poet as they write. The theme is animals and all poems referenced can be found on the internet. It is wonderful, at the end of the unit, to publish the class's work as an anthology.

The lessons are not in a sequenced order but do offer different approaches to different points in the play. The main focus of the lessons is preparation towards an essay but the powerpoints can easily be adapted for preparation for your examination board.

This set of j.pegs have been produced to support writing nonfiction texts. Each card will give the student a brief that they must follow when writing. These can be used to support lessons on audience, purpose and format.

These powerpoint lessons are not sequenced in any particular order but offer lots of different opportunities for the study of Animal Farm. The general focus of the lessons is a guided reading of the novel and then preparation for an examination. The powerpoints would need to be adapted for the examination board that you would be preparing students towards.

Year 8 Scheme of work Emotion

This is an excellent unit to cover social and moral issues, as well as covering aspects of the PSHE curriculum. The aim of the unit is to focus on spoken language and how choices in spoken language can impact on the audience. The unit acts as an excellent introduction to reception theory and could be completed before moving on to look at some form of literature where the writer has made purposeful choices.
