AQA Language Paper 1

A Unit of work roughly comprising of 15 lessons which takes students through the exploration of language and structure in preparation for Language paper 1.

The scheme uses extracts from a range of sources including Game of Thrones, The Hobbit, The Shining and Pennywise.

The first sequence of lessons look at different skills such as identifying tension, analysing language techniques, identifying and evaluating structural techniques and exploring setting.

There is then a shift to examine a whole paper created from an extract from The Hobbit- each lesson looks at a question from the paper and takes students through how to answer the question with activities and model answers.

Finally, there is a walking talking style mock sequence of lessons covering an extract from Pennywise with an optional writing question.
