A revision booklets for making notes and analysing important quotes about key characters and themes in the novella.

Assessment sheets which allow quick feedback to pupils. This set of sheets includes reading feedback (based on PEA/CE writing structure) for the novel, Shakespeare and poetry and writing feedback based around the old National Curriculum standards. As most schools have now developed their own levelling system any sheets that previously included the NC numbers have been included both in the NC format and in a format with blank space to write in new levelling numbers or letters - whatever you've gone for :)

This powerpoint introduces some of the main themes of 1:1 and the play as a whole. It tackles the scene in a simple way that reassures students Shakespeare isn't so hard while also introducing some complex ideas about interpretation of the witches and the context of the play. This is the first in a series of lessons on Macbeth - I hope to be uploading more soon.

A lesson to teach six persuasive techniques to Year 7 students (although could be used with other KS3 years or even KS2 depending on ability level). Students love the Norwegian looking FLARRD and enjoy trying to pronounce it in an exaggerated way. The drawing was a very basic doodle of what a FLARRD might look like -you could swap this for your own interpretation. The grid can be used as a beetle drive style game - students roll a dice and then have to find an example of the persuasive technique before drawing that section of their creature, this would require you to provide one or several persuasive writing extracts that feature the six techniques or alternatively you could ask students to write their own examples. This lesson is designed to be used as part of the Survival Guide SOW, which is available in my shop, although it can be used independently.

A powerpoint presentation which can be printed out as a textbook. It is designed in a textbook format with lessons for each of the important sections of the play. Each of the lessons includes activities that have been differentiated three ways and can be used either independently by pupils as a cover lesson or can be taught with the accompanying lessons. There are also three Macbeth related SPAG lessons and an optional 'flipped classroom' lesson. The textbook finishes with a reading assessment.

A pack of resources designed to accompany my 'Macbeth Textbook'. Each of the sections in the textbook have an accompanying powerpoint for the teacher to use in order to focus the class on the section of the book's page which they need to complete. There are also print ready versions of sections of the play for annotation as well as some other useful resources. Also additional help for test preparation.

Designed to introduce pupils to the more archaic vocabulary that they will find in pre-1914 novels. Can be used as definition or spelling tests or both. Each week is linked by a theme which isn't revealed till the test - this allows pupils to guess the theme, introducing an element of competition.

A powerpoint and handout that covers a range of creative ways in which the text can be interpreted. Designed to be used as an extra revision session specifically aimed at high ability pupils but could also be incorporated into a lesson.

A creative writing lesson that encourages pupils to consider the importance of vocab choice in creating atmosphere. Can be used with follow up lesson about describing a faerie or could be used as a one-off writing piece.

Basic plans to be used as revision for the new AQA English Language exams. Includes printable revision resources for both Paper 1 and Paper 2 sections A and B. An acronym for encouraging lower ability pupils to produce a range of ideas for their arguments for Paper 2 Section B.

2 x Paper 1 Section A and B practice papers - one based on the opening of 'Treasure Island' and one based on 'Dracula'. The use of old texts will allow pupils to become more familiar with the trickier language and sentence structures that they are likely to come across in Paper 2.

This lesson focuses on the first time fairies appear in the play and can be used as a one off lesson or at the start of a scheme of work about the play. It is designed for use with Y7 but may be of use to Y6 classes too as it takes a very simple step-by-step approach to analysing Shakespearean language. Can also be used as a lead into my 'forests and faeries' creative writing lessons.

A revision guide for use with lower ability sets that covers all the basics of Animal Farm's main characters and their context.

A one-off lesson which can be used with KS3 classes to introduce them to the basic plot of 'Frankenstein' as part of a study of gothic literature or as part of a creative writing scheme. The lesson involves finding the techniques which Shelley has used and then putting them into practice by writing a modern day version of the monster's creation.

A powerpoint and handout that covers a range of creative ways in which the text can be interpreted. Designed to be used as an extra revision session specifically aimed at high ability pupils but could also be incorporated into a lesson.
