Of Mice and Men deeper meaning /Grade 9

(0)
Students in Year 8 or Year 9 would love these activities to stretch and challenge them to the top grades. There is also a useful paragraph model included which is great for a comparative essay between Daisy (Gatsby) and Curley's Wife. This model is Grade 6/7 in order to allow students to improve it as an activity.

Connectives (linking words) are useful as part of VCOP to support students in improving writing. These resources are perfect for a skills lesson or for a short interview lesson (20 minutes). There is a teacher copy in case of non-specialists using this as a cover lesson. There are multiple copies of the sheet to help show differentiation by task.

Useful for those students who would be previously called Level 3, these tests offer various benefits: 1. they are following a similar structure 2. they promote basic skills in punctuation and grammar 3. they don't take very long 4. the structure provided here could easily be replicated

Lord of the Flies - Victims and Bullies comparison with OMAM

(0)
Great for Y9 students who will study Lord of the Flies as part of the new GCSE specification. They can study both texts and then do this assessment to compare them. This cross-references with the comparative language questions too, thus, preparing them for both Lang and Lit.

KS3 structure skills - comparing opening and ending Black Beauty

KS3 structure skills - comparing opening and ending Black Beauty

(0)
This resource is designed to accompany the reading of Black Beauty by Anna Sewell. It would work well to read the opening chapter in class with Y7/8, then have them read the remainder as homework over a holiday. Then reading the opening and closing chapter together, enables teachers to discuss some of the structural terms that will be needed for AQA 8700/1 Q3 at GCSE. The activity is designed so students can create a paragraph of analysis as well as complete DIRT activities and retry the activity after looking at model answers.
