A fully resourced guided instruction teaching scheme (updated with 2026 changes) for English Lang Paper 1 AQA section A - the Sound of Thunder (Nov 18). Using the I do, We do, You do model of teaching for every question so that every 3 lessons students complete an independent assessment of a question. The 2026 changes to Q1, 3 and 4 are implemented. All fully editable so you can add dates and adapt for your school. There is a ‘try before you buy version’ if you want to see first. The scheme utilises a version of Jennifer Webb’s 3 things about 3 things strategy in analysis and uses structure strips which unfortunately I am struggling to attribute to someone as I have been an English Lang teacher for a long time and have followed many a fantastic influencer on Edu-Twitter and signed up to Litdrive for many a year.

We used this process during Covid-Tags and found that the ‘You do’ assessment lesson was effective in tracking student progress and them being able to experience the questions in more manageable chunks while practising, so we continued it as a strategy in ‘normal’ times. The only things I have had to omit is the papers and inserts for possible copywright reasons but these are easily found in a web search.

A fully resourced 7 lesson writing unit, with examples linked to The Sound of Thunder Paper. The lessons are numbered to just follow on from the Reading Unit. Focusing on sentencing and structure, it uses I do, We do, You do and the writing format it teaches is the well-known structure of DROP, SHIFT, ZOOM OUT, ZOOM IN, which I’ve used for so long I can’t find who to attribute it to, sorry.
