GCSE English Language Creative Writing Techniques Coaching for AQA 8700 (24 sessions)

Writing techniques coaching for GCSE AQA English Language (8700) bundle

The complete coaching bundle to support both creative writing and writing to present a viewpoint, at a steep discount. Designed for AQA GCSE English Language [8700] but applicable to most other boards; where AQA talk about “writing to present a viewpoint”, you may be more familiar with the terms “writing to argue, persuade, or advise” (OCR), “non-fiction writing for purpose” (Eduqas/WJEC), “crafting a persuasive text” or “transactional writing” (Edexcel). Each resource comes in three parts: 1. **Introductory module**. Classroom slides to present each of the **54 writing techniques**, across the two modules, along with examples of their use in literature. The hide/show feature engages curiosity and stimulates discussion. 2. **Student revision app**. Use in class or for homework. Students practise the technique you have set and get realtime feedback from their own preferred AI. They are encouraged to repeat and refine their writing until they have mastered the technique. 3. **Assessment module**. Guided assessments for each technique, with options pitched at different ability levels. ⠀The three modules together create a **teach | revise | assess** sequence for you to teach creative writing techniques. **Coaching sessions** * Clear central viewpoint * Audience awareness * Purposeful form * Register control * Opening thesis statement * Logical paragraphing * Topic sentences * Connectives and discourse markers * Counter-argument * Rebuttal * Concession * Direct address * Inclusive pronouns * Emotive language * Rhetorical questions * Rule of three / cluster of three * Repetition for emphasis * Facts and statistics * Expert opinion / reliable source * Anecdote * Imperatives / commands * Modal verbs * Contrast * Antithesis * Parenthesis * Parallelism * Short sentences for impact * Hyperbole * Call to action * Strong ending * * Emotive Words * Clusters of Three * Catchy Phrases or Slogans * Emotive Pictures * Forceful Phrases * Rhetorical Questions * Humour * Personal Pronouns * Figures of Speech * Short Sentences/Paragraphs * Contrasts * Play on the Reader’s Guilt * Statistics * Chatty Style * Criticise the Opposite Opinion * Play on the Reader’s Sympathy * Exaggeration (Hyperbole) * Repetition of Words/Phrase * Make Positive Points * Make Negative Points * Personal Anecdotes * Impersonal Imagery * Quote a Reliable Source * Shock Tactics
