23x power points for Animal Farm lessons, complete with resources and a medium term plan. Students will engage with the plot of Animal Farm, whilst developing their critical thinking skills, and engaging with the allegorical message of the text. A lovely unit to deliver on its own, or to deliver in Year 9 to prepare students for studying An Inspector Calls at GCSE.

34x Treasure Island PowerPoints guiding students through Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island novel. The MTP is included, with a break down of lesson objectives, and reading, writing and speaking and listening skills, developed throughout the scheme. Each PowerPoint focuses on helping students to develop a range of reading and writing skills, including comprehension skills, close-textual analysis, descriptive writing, oracy skills etc. The first half of the PowerPoints are designed to build these skills slowly, ensuring students feel confident, before moving more quickly through the text.* Each lesson comes complete with a learning objective, set of key words and steps to success. Each lesson provides a starter task, a task that helps students to develop particular skills, a modelling task, an independent study task (where necessary) and a plenary task. Worksheets and other resources, linked to the lessons are also available e.g. planning sheets for the creative writing lessons. The PowerPoints are visually engaging, as well as practical, following an effective structure to elicit progress from students. Thank you for using my resources :) ! *Some of the chapters are summarised, either due to content or timing. Questions in purple font, indicate where feedback discussions will take place, and students should edit and mark their answers/SPaG.

Attached is a completed SoW for Shakespeare’s Macbeth. You will find 17x PowerPoints (some Ppts contain content for more than 1 lesson), that track the entirety of Shakespeare’s play, helping students to build a strong understanding of the play, its context and how to answer AQA exam style questions, on themes and characters. Each learning objective is linked to AQA’s assessment objectives, where necessary, with linked key words, and a set of ‘steps to success’ to show students exactly how the lesson will support them in meeting the learning objective. Each PowerPoint contains a range of activities, and where necessary, they each include: a starter activity, a skills developement task, a modelling task, an independent study task and a plenary task. Many of the PowerPoints also include recall starters, that focus on helping students recall key information about Macbeth and their other Literature texts e.g. A Christmas Carol or An Inspector Calls. Thank you for using my resources. :) *Lessons 9-16 were edited to include further information, as these were shared during lockdown.

21x fiction extracts, with accompanying questions and answers/scaffolding, with some creative writing tasks. The comprehension booklet contains a wide range of challenging extracts, from a range of texts, including: Kerfol Tess of the D’Ubervilles All The Light We Cannot See Alice in Wonderland Treasure Island The War of the Worlds My Antonia The Christmas Present The Mort Printer’s Devil Court And many more! The booklet is designed to help students engage with a range of texts, and therefore be exposed to a wide range of vocabulary. The booklet could be suitable for school library lessons, homework, online learning or for smaller intervention/booster groups. Answers aren’t available for the creative writing tasks, as the extracts can be used as models. All other questions have accompanying answers/scaffolds. Thank you for using my resources! :)

A series of lessons focused on helping students to revise their AQA Power and Conflict poems, whilst developing their ability to compare them. The unit also includes several Unseen Poetry lessons. All lessons include a clear sequencing of tasks, with opportunity for independent analysis, and a success criteria derived from the exam board’s mark scheme.

**A revision grid designed to help students re-engage with AQA’s Power and Conflict Anthology poems. ** The grid tasks students with collecting relevant quotations, engaging with key vocabulary from the poems, recalling context, and considering the links between the poems. The grid can be a useful place for students to start, if they’re unsure of how to approach revising poetry or if they’d like a task that helps them to review the poems as a whole. Thank you for using my resources! :)

Attached is a complete MTP, taking students through Frankenstein, across a term. The MTP breaks the novel down into manageable sections, helping students to build a range of reading, writing, speaking and listening skills as they make their way through the text. The MTP allows students to develop their comprehension and analytical skills, whilst also helping them to use the text as a model, for their own creative writing. These skills are developed more slowly at the start of the MTP, to build a solid foundation of basic skills, before moving more quicky through the text, with more challenging tasks. 12x PowerPoints are available, that match the beginning of the MTP, to model how to make the most of the MTP, made from scratch. Each PowerPoint includes a learning objective, directly from the MTP, a set of key words for the lesson, and an overview of the steps that should be carried out, to achieve the learning objective. Each PowerPoint (where necessary) includes a starter task, skills development task, a modelling task, an independent study task, and a plenary task, to enable students to effectively make progress. Accompanying worksheets are also included. Thank you for using my resources. :)

A descriptive and narrative scheme of work, including 15 PowerPoints and a detailed MTP. The lessons are carefully sequenced to build on a foundation of writing skills, readying students for when they begin their GCSE studies (though can be very quickly adapted to reference AQA AOs and be delivered to GCSE cohorts.) Each lesson includes recall quizzes to test prior knowledge and encourage retention. Each lesson also includes a success criteria, that slowly builds in challenge and has the AQA writing mark scheme in mind. The lessons reference descriptive/narrative extracts, but not all of these are sourced, to ensure the lessons are easy to differentiate. I have reflected this in the price! A great set of resources, that my students loved!

The lesson gives students the chance to practise and hone their skills for Language Paper 2 Question 4, using two recently written articles on the Black Lives Movement and Equality.
