Walk With Us and Kitchen Chronicles IGCSE Bundle

Walk With Us and Kitchen Chronicles IGCSE Facilitator Handbook Unit is a ready to use, cross curricular unit of work built around narrative poems, lived experience, and historical voices. Designed for Cambridge IGCSE delivery, the unit helps students explore themes of power, resistance, belonging, identity, community, memory, and heritage through practical, discussion-rich lessons that build both cultural literacy and assessment ready skills.

What’s included:

Kitchen Chronicles, Cambridge IGCSE First Language English (0500) Facilitator Handbook. A participatory sequence of six one hour workshops (plus an optional seventh) using Kitchen Chronicles: Caribbean Recipes in Rhyme as a core/supplementary poetry text and an unseen text stimulus. Supports IGCSE reading skills (inference, writer’s effects, purpose/audience/voice) and writing skills (directed writing, descriptive/narrative). Includes clear teaching principles, ready made activities, talk routines and planning scaffolds to move students from first reading to confident, evidence based responses.

Walk With Us, Cambridge IGCSE First Language English (0500) Facilitator Handbook. A structured English unit using Walk With Us poems as high impact texts for close reading, interpretation, and writing from reading. Students develop confidence with unfamiliar texts, build analytical precision (language, form and structure, viewpoint and tone), and practise crafting purposeful responses with well chosen evidence. Includes workshop style lessons, discussion prompts, modelling, and writing scaffolds suitable for class or intervention groups.

Walk With Us, Cambridge IGCSE History Facilitator Handbook. An accessible pathway for using Walk With Us as historical interpretations and perspectives, supporting inquiry led learning and evidence informed writing. The handbook helps students explore significance, cause and consequence, continuity and change, and diverse lived experiences, making it ideal for thematic study, skills building, and curriculum enrichment. Activities foreground source thinking, interpretation, and structured written responses.

Together, the three handbooks form a coherent unit that is inclusive, purposeful, and time saving, with lessons already mapped into a teachable sequence that strengthens oracy, confidence, and exam aligned reading/writing across English and History.
