Here you will find the reading lessons for my Lord of the Flies SoW for the mid to higher ability (Learning outcomes measured against Levels 4 - 6). IMPORTANT: Lessons 6 and 7 use sound-clips which I couldn't upload - you will have to find suitable sound effects yourself. Please feel free to add feedback and any suggestions.

A set of worksheets including comprehension questions and synopsis summaries of a play, prose and a poem. Each sheet has comprehension questions that lead the A level students towards understanding. Still trying to get my head around this course so feedback would be appreciated as to how useful these resources are.

A simple starter task getting students to compare cars across history and focusing on the recently redeveloped S-Type Jaguar.

17 lessons worth of resources targeted at children with minor to major EBD. These resources are also Dyslexic friendly. They are focused around the town of Leamington Spa, but this can easily be modified. The worksheets take the student through the beginning of a settlement to it’s modern day level of development.

These are the resources I created for teaching AS English Language - I am certain now that the spec has changed but the skills and powerpoints may be a start point for some. Hope someone out there finds these useful...

Using the PEE format I've made user friendly sheets specifically relating to Spoken Language to help students plan and structure their responses. These are useful if the students are familiar with the terminology first.

The first lesson of a SoW I have recently created to teach Lord of the Flies to Year 7. This is the first part; I refer you to the 'Following this Scheme' guide for instructions as to what to do next. Please leave feedback if you find this Scheme useful or have any suggestions to make. Look for the remaining stages on here too...

Linked to the Roald Dahl 'Boy' SoW. I used these powerpoints and worksheets to differentiate for a very large middle set year 7 group. Reasonable success - the worksheets allows the top end to focus on their own development, leaving me to focus on those who were really struggling.

....and here it is. The second part of a KS3 investigation into poetry. It should be noted that I have targetted these lessons specifically at LOWER ABILITY year 7's - this unit is designed to be a little harder. It should be noted at this point that these resources were created in conjunction with a team of people - i do not take credit for ANY of the word documents in BOTH resources.

I did this as an end of year task with my Year 7's. Essentially it is putting on a puppet show of Pyramus and Thisbe, the idea being that the students tell a modern version but using elements of Shakespearean language. Set up for SLAF 3 but easy enough to alter for SLAF 1 and 2.

A worksheet on a poem, play and piece of prose from the Neo-Classical era. The questions are to check understanding and encourage thoughtful study of the era. I would appreciate feedback.

Focused on the Shakespearean text vs the Conflict Poetry from the literary heritage. Very structured against the bands and pointed towards the controlled assessment.

Two worksheets on the suburban habitats. One looking at the environments, one looking at adaption of rats and foxes.

These lessons are to be ran in tandem with watching the 1963 versions of the film (not the modern version - the pilot is still alive!). You can insert these two lessons at any point in the SoW.

The third and final stage of my Lord of the Flies SoW. I am still adding in alternative lessons to this so expect some changes. The writing assessment focuses on a letter-in-a-bottle activity. As you can see, there is heavy emphasis on punctuation. Feedback welcome. The handwriting lesson is based upon a workbook i found on TES - I take no credit for it!

A series of lessons designed to teach Year 10-11 students about Shakespeare and how he presents feelings. This unit is pointed at a controlled assessment question that focuses on how Shakespeare and the conflict poetry POETS present ideas about feelings - poetry lessons to follow.

I made this sheet after marking a load of mock exam papers and getting frustrated at the inability of some foundation students to compare effectively. Oh yes, this is meant to be printed on A3 paper too! I have had success with foundation groups in terms of getting them to structure their responses.

I pulled together a lot of thinking from a lot of different websites and have shaped it into these lessons. Not all of the content is mine.

A simple spreadsheet that allows you to keep track of your online lessons. My school uses classcharts as its medium in setting online learning - but you can easily change the headings of the columns to reflect whatever software you use.

An easy to use spreadsheet where you build a bank of true or false statements (tab 3) which will then create a randomly generated worksheet of ten true or false statements (tab 1). Additionally, an answer sheet will be generated too (tab 2) allowing for the resource to be used in a whole class setting. All you need to do is populate the spreadsheet with true/false statements and then identify which statements are true, and which are false. Instructions are built into the spreadsheet itself.
