This scheme of work includes all lessons and an extract booklet that you will need to teach Romeo and Juliet to a GCSE class on the AQA exam board. I have used this SOW myself for several years now and regularly update it.

This resource is great to use for cover lessons and in class viewings of the film Romeo and Juliet. With prompts in each section this sheet gets students to be more engaged with the viewing and respond to tasks rather than just watching a film in lesson.
This sheet can be used for a cover lesson or a showing of the movie in a normal lesson. It gets students to identify editors and directors choices as well as encourage a understanding of plot or any quotes that stood out to them.
Using an extract from Jekyll and Hyde students must identify language devices in the extract and then try to replicate this in their own creative writing.
I am an experienced Secondary English Teacher and past AQA Examiner that has created a series of 8 lessons to teach AQA Langauge Paper 2. Resources (extracts) are included. This SOW has been tried and tested with my own year 10 and 11s. Some resources are shorter than other to avoid student disengagement others are longer to replicate the AQA exam.
If purchased I would love to read your reviews and feedback.
