44 detailed lessons which covers plot, characters, themes and context. Learning objectives are linked to the new AQA spec assessment objectives.

I have now uploaded a second set of A-Level Othello exam questions - see my other resources for Pack 2. This pack is a set of 14 assessment tasks, following the same structure as the AQA A Level Paper 1 (Love Through the Ages), Section A, Q1 sample materials, all on Othello. This is for the new specification (7712). The assessments focus on the presentation of varying types of love across a range of key scenes in the play. This makes them useful as practice exam material, and/or for recapping key scenes in the play. Each task has a question based on the presentation of [aspect of love] in response to a statement, followed by an extract.

After discounting all named poems used in AQA’s sample and past papers, and considering question styles used by AQA, I came up with a range of potential named poem choices and questions AQA could use this summer. This resource consists of a set of exam papers based on those poems, each with three potential exam questions, in the style of the AQA GCSE English Literature exam. Please note: these are purely predictions and I have no advance knowledge of the content of the exam this resource comprises of assessment questions, not teaching resources the questions can easily be edited to include your own task.

Covers the book and context with creative activities.

Fully decorated. Covers plot, theme, characters, setting and context of the play. Linked to the new AQA spec and covers all the assessment objectives. Range of extension and challenge opportunities throughout. Booklet includes the activities from the powerpoint. No paper scheme of work as the powerpoints are self-explanatory.

Would probably last longer if required. This focuses on the first 'Alice in Wonderland' book by Lewis Carroll. Mainly focused on writing skills. Covers all of the book apart from Chapter 9 and 10. Activities include challenge tasks to extend students' thinking skills. All resources needed are included and all powerpoint slides come decorated and ready to use. All include learning objective and success criteria. No paper SoW as tasks are self-explanatory. Thank you for looking!

Fully decorated with a range of activities leading up to creating a newspaper report. Just needs learning objectives and success criteria adding.

After discounting all extracts and questions used in AQA’s sample and past papers, and considering the length of extract and question styles used by AQA, I came up with five potential extracts and questions AQA could use this summer. This resource consists of those five extracts, each with a question, in the style of the AQA GCSE English Literature exam. Please note that these are purely predictions and I have no advance knowledge of the content of the exam!

17 lessons that covers the whole play of 'Frankenstein'. Looks at plot, characters, themes and context.

This covers analysing holiday and hotel adverts, brochures, reviews, travel writing and persuasive writing. It covers some of the new AQA Language exam skills so that year 8 can get used to some of the skills they will need to know in the years to come.

A complete unit of work, with 17 PowerPoint lessons and accompanying resources to work through the play from the beginning to the end, developing relevant skills (AO1, AO2, AO3 and AO4). Includes opportunities for peer/self reflection using green pen (you may wish to change this if your school has a different colour/policy for independent reflection). Aimed at middle-higher ability but can be adapted. Lessons are designed to be one hour each but many can be stretched to allow for more detailed exploration of ideas where relevant. Useful for any study of An Inspector Calls but created with the new AQA specification (8702, Paper 2) in mind. Note: there are a range of original resources within the package, but two of these are freely available on TES (dominoes task and tension ordering in lessons 1 and 6). I am absolutely not claiming these as my own but including them within the scheme as they are incorporated in the two of the lesson plan PowerPoints I've created :)

Covers plot, characters, theme and context. All extremely detailed and includes 'did you know?' interesting facts. Please note that not all powerpoints have learning objectives on as I am going to add these on at a later date and have not had time as of yet as I have spent hours making these. All decorated and covers exam practice. Please leave feedback. Thank you.

The board will need to be printed on A3 and could be laminated for reuse. This is a really good way of getting students to revisit their learning and knowledge of the characters, themes, context and events of the novella in a fun and independent way. I have used this before and the students really enjoy it. All you will need it some dice to play. You could get students to think of their own questions and tasks too as an extension/challenge.

111 slide powerpoint which looks at dissecting a poem and analysing it, as well as some creative writing opportunities. Challenge and extension activities included. Skills linked to new AQA criteria. Poems covered can be seen on the first slide of the powerpoint. All fully decorated and ready to use. Task booklet accompanies this scheme.

This resource would be best enlarged onto A3 and could be used during teaching this paper, before an assessment or after a marked piece of work in order for students to make improvements. This focuses solely on the reading section of Language Paper 2 and uses ‘One’s Company’ and ‘Records of a Girlhood’ (2023 exam) as its focus. It is three pages in length. The sections could be potentially highlighted by students or folded to look less overwhelming and to seem more like a bookmark style tool. This is a grid which includes the key things to remember about the reading section emphasis on the importance of the context box at the top of the extract what each question looks like (based on ‘One’s Company’ and ‘Records of a Girlhood’ (2023 exam) questions they should ask themselves for each question to help reading for meaning how to plan (or what I tell mine to do) what should be included to gain specific levels with a short example sentence openers a rough breakdown of marks for grade boundaries the mark scheme with bracketed simplification of some words for students to understand

This is a booklet which covers the 1993 film version of Much Ado About Nothing by Kenneth Branagh. It has rough timings as to when students should be able to answer the question from. Covers a range of Bloom’s skills. Can be used either as an activity during teaching or post-reading recap.
