Designed for the OCR GCSE Classical Civilisations specification for ‘‘Literature and Culture.’’ All five knowledge organisers/summary sheets cover the prescribed books (Book 9, 10, 19, 21 and 22) and include a general overview of the plot of each section, major characters, major themes and analysis.
Extremely detailed handwritten annotations for each section of the prescribed text - Messalina. These notes are very condensed so, although they were written on A4, if you can I would advise that they are printed on A3 just so they are easier to read (the print is still legible at A4 size, however). These notes are more than enough to guarantee you an A* at GCSE WJCE Level 2 Latin literature, the annotations include notes on style, grammar, word positioning, literary devices, and the effect of all of the above. These notes are directly tailored to the WJCE:9542 specification and have been organized with lots of colors, making it a perfect resource for students and teachers - as you go through the text section by section you can make sure you do not miss anything, this will give you a structured lesson and efficient revision. For every section, there is one page of annotations on the official Latin text (the exact same copy will be available in the exam you take in May/June 2017)
This guide includes a revision tracker, worksheets on the present tense, imperfect tense, perfect tense, and noun endings, and vocabulary revision charts for all twelve stages of the Cambridge Latin Course. An answer key is included. In addition to the exercises on the worksheets, there are additional suggested revision activities.
I created this to help my Year 8s independently prepare for their end of unit test.
This resource includes a 32-slide lesson designed to introduce Greek Myths and Legends to students, accompanied by a short story in which the key Greek Gods are established.

These detailed course / revision notes were specially written to give GCSE Classical Civilization students a comprehensive understanding of the key knowledge from the specification for Women in the Ancient World: OCR GCSE Classical Civilisation (9-1)
Women of Legend
Young Women
Women in the home
'Improper’ Women
Women and religion
Women and power
Warrior Women
Women to be Feared
Each of the above is split into two sections: Greece, firstly, and then Rome.
These extensive notes are especially useful for students whose note-taking in lesson isn’t as good as others, or whose organisational skills mean they are missing notes/handouts on certain topics / areas. These notes will certainly help reduce the time it takes them to catch up with their peers, and also students like to use these as a checklist of topics to go into in further detail. They give peace of mind that every corner of the specification/syllabus has been covered.
These notes can be given to students to work through at their own pace, or split up and given to students as and when each part of the content is studied throughout the course. As the teacher you may find it useful to go through the notes with my students as they highlight and annotate them with anything extra you want to give them according to their level. These notes though are comprehensive and detailed and work just as well as a stand alone revision aid as they do an in-class resource.
Hopefully these notes help to save your students (and you!) some time in the hectic run up to exams. Thanks for taking a look :)
This powerpoint can be used to teach a lesson about Ancient Roman food and drink.
The first activity requires accompanying pictures of the food in the columns. The map explains where the food that the food the Romans did not know about comes either from countries that the Romans did not conquer or a time period after the Romans.
The Roman dinner party invitation activity should be accompanied by the Cambridge Latin Course worksheet on Roman dinner-parties.
This lesson can be adapted for KS2 pupils and also for Year 9 or pupils that require more challenging work.
