I provide resources mainly for English (IGCSE and GCSE content), but also post useful Drama resources. There are also brand new English-with-Media resources to choose from, and many materials such as assemblies and certificates that could prove useful to Head of Years. All resources are differentiated appropriately and labelled with key year groups.

This lesson can be used for mid-top set KS4, used as a double lesson or simplified/split in two for a single hour lesson. Includes how to analyse personal pronouns, concrete and abstract nouns, and Mrs Birling/The Inspector’s use of superlative adjectives. Great way to push your students to conduct some deeper analysis of the text. Lots of visual aid (videos), differentiation (challenge activities), example analysis and comparative essay sentence starters. Hope you find this useful!
