A PowerPoint lesson focusing on paper 2 question 2 of the non-fiction exam. This looks at the following question based on Touching the Void: 'HOW DOES JOE SIMPSON SHOW HIS THIRST AND DRINKING OF THE WATER?' Very typical of what you would get in the exam. Extract included as well as model paragraphs and examiner tips.

I made this for my students when I wanted them to revise prior units even when moving onto a new topic. Each of these starters are 5-10 mins long. They get a slide with an exam language question, sample quotes and a PEE sentence starter. They have 2 mins to write their PEE. The students seem to like it as it’s fun and competitive. Great for peer assessment too. It’s worked really well for me.

A really great collection of starters (55 slides). Each starter has a selection of quotes from a real EDUQAS exam. The students need to use the quotes to write an exam answer (PEE or simple answer). Sometimes a starter sentence will be included for weaker students. I give each class three mins to complete the starters against the clock. The following starters are included: Q1 information retrieval Q2, Q3 & Q4 language analysis & PEE Q4 Impressions question, language analyis & PEE Q5 - Evaluation question exam terminology starter on verbs, adjectives, adverbs & nouns (two worksheets included) top 8 incorrect spellings starter
