The Great Gatsby Full Scheme of Work

Here is a full scheme of work for Fitzgerald’s fantastic novel, The Great Gatsby.

The scheme and activities within very much focus on the skills needed to succeed with the English Language Component 1 paper (WJEC), particularly AO2.

A lot of love and effort has gone into this scheme and my pupils have really enjoyed it!

This SoW was made for my Year 9s (a very bright set 1 class), but it certainly could be differentiated to suit other abilities.

There are lots of model starters and responses to really try and push the students and to enable them to develop their reading skills with the key learning objectives in mind. There’s a big focus on using subject terminology also.

The scheme covers all 9 chapters.

Apologies if there are any slight errors!

Thanks, and enjoy :)
