Nearly a hundred A3 cover sheets created so that my department would have a ‘textbook’ to make setting cover easier. AQA-specific in places, but easily adaptable. Experienced English Teacher and GCSE Examiner-made. Essay writing lessons for Lit texts (A Christmas Carol, Lord of the Flies, Animal Farm, An Inspector Calls, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, Much Ado About Nothing, Jekyll and Hyde) Language Paper lessons (AQA friendly but easily adapted for Eduqas and others) Skills-based lessons GO BEYOND lessons looking at improving responses (Stretch and Challenge for Higher Ability embedded, but can be used with any group looking to raise their grade) NOTE: there are no lessons on Language Paper 2 Section A as a whole. We used someone else’s resource for this, so I have not included it.

A SOW for Hope Springs, the Richard Conlon play, created for a Y8 class. Comes with a booklet to support teaching. 14 lessons, 13 of which have activities, with the 14th being an assessment or assessment prep lesson.

A set of lessons on a PowerPoint to teach a number of poems from around the world, with activities and suggested writing tasks. Comes with a booklet to use if you wish, and a knowledge map. Not all poems are covered in the lessons, but there are 14 lessons in the PPT/booket.

A useful revision resource for students who want to know which poems you can compare for which themes. Obviously, the list of themes is not exhaustive, but should cover the majority of exam questions. Also, students may find other poems for each theme, and can add their own. Quotations are aimed at a range of abilities, with some stretching your most high-achieving, and some with explanations written in note form already to aid those struggling to analyse (there is one quotation for each poem analysed).

A revision resource designed to cover each of the 4 ghosts in the novella in detail, including key quotations to annotate, contextual information and summaries. Can be done in a couple of lessons, though you could easily stretch it to 3. Comes with an example question asking about the Ghosts, with an extract from the opening to Stave 4.
