This set of lessons was created for a low level year 7 group, introducing them to non-fiction and creative writing through the magic of Dragons! They really engaging well with these different activities and got very creative with the variety! Was a fantastic short scheme, which could also be an intervention, which could also be used for level key stage 3/4 across the year groups. Many thanks :)

This lesson is written for AQA English Language (9-1) for section B question 5 but can be easily adapted across the board. It features a question based from a past AQA paper on envriomental issues. Pupils discuss the basic and advanced ingredients of a speech, what AO5/6 is and how to reach top bands in this question. There is also planning through my 5 step formula. Pupils then write the speech and assess using the mark scheme avaliable from AQA (or your exam board!). IPERSUADE is discussed which is; I - Imperative P - Personal Pronouns E - Emotive language R - Rhetorical questions S - Statistics U - Use discourse markers A - Anecdotes D - Direct address E - Exaggeration Many thanks :)

This lesson is an preperation lesson for an essay in pupils write a response to a past exam response for AQA Literature, but can be adapted to other exam boards! Pupils consider the question 'How is Macbeth considered heroic in the opening monologue of Act 5 scene 3'? Pupils then consider the whole text. Pupils can argue that he may be a hero but also how he may be a villain throughout the text. There is an example strucutre, paragraph outlines, assessment objective overviews, and how to reach top bands. Many thanks!

This is a lesson developed for year 7 PSHCE lessons focused on time keeping. Pupils will consider why time is important, how time can be wasted/used effectively, how long it takes them do things and what they can do to use their time more effectively!

This is a 12 week scheme of work I developed for Hamlet for A Level English Literature.

This is written for a GCSE group but can easily be adapted. Using Mrs Beeton's book of household management, pupils analysis a section of the text to consider the theme of responsbility. Pupils will consider how Mrs Beeton's views on modern women would have been portrayed, analyse a piece of text and create an analysis concluding with peer assessment. There are also two overlays that can be used with any piece of unseen text. Many thanks :)
