DESCRIPTION
Drawing on my experience as a teacher and extensive analysis of past papers, mark schemes and examiner reports, I’ve created ‘model answer’ notes that cover every point on the AQA specification (including required practicals).
These notes are presented in an easy-to-use Q&A format. Colour coding, diagrams and a simple layout makes learning easy.
After each sub-topic, you’ll find a list of common mistakes that will help you beat those specific mark schemes.
Having refined these over the last 3 years alongside working as a teacher, I’ve seen first-hand the results they can achieve. I’m confident that they will be an invaluable tool to you.
TOPICS INCLUDED: 1-8

Bubble Writing Bundle - NON-CURSIVE
In addition to the Bubble Writing Starter Pack, you will receive two additional PowerPoint presentations containing Days/Months/Seasons and written forms of numbers to a million.
Like many primary school teachers I have tried a variety of handwriting schemes with varying degrees of success. Having thought through many common problems with handwriting I have developed a simple scaffold that places a bubble either side of the line to support letter formation. This simple scaffold provides a guide to consistently form printed letters and ensure each letter is uniform in both height and width. Children are able to leave equal spaces between words and see clearly whether or not there is enough space at the end of each line for the next word they intend to write. There has been a huge impact within my class in a very short space of time and I hope you will see similar benefits within your own setting.
An Inspector Calls **TES AWARD NOMINATED** - Over 20 hours worth of fully differentiated lessons (powerpoints, worksheets and exam practice / prep) + a GCSE revision guide AND a knowledge organiser.

It basically covers everything you need to teach 'An Inspector Calls' and get successful results (I do). If you think there's anything missing, let me know.
Hope you find this useful, as a Head of English I have given this to my whole department to use and they are very pleased about how much time they've saved.

As a Secondary Science teacher and Deputy Headteacher for (too many) years I make resources that I know just work: teachers can pick them up “off the shelf” and teach an outstanding lesson that children will learn from. Each paid resource has a preview video so you can see a sample of what you’d be buying for free.
