An adaptable article writing activity to help students with the layout of an article.

This is a checklist I designed on publisher and can be edited by yourself. It can be used either A4 or A3 and used in class. I plan to use this with my students so they all have a checklist that they can use when completing their work. You can either type the key words or sentences you want them to use or you can fill it out as class. The last box asks students to tell you exactly where in their work they have used the key word/s or sentences and if they haven't you can use this to aid in their development for the next class. It is aesthetically pleasing and it is better than just writing down a checklist in class that students probably won't use again whereas this can be used many times. Enjoy!

Hi Please find an adaptable A3 activity that will help students with their creative writing. Blue box at the top = the creative writing question Errors I will avoid = errors you keep seeing in people’s work and will help students Spider diagram = come up with as many things that you could write about Blue box = pick one thing from the spider diagram and plan it out nice and simple Enjoy :) Jack

Help students with their analysis by using this slogan activity. Students analyse the words, and consider the connotations of certain words. This will help them for language and structure for most specs!

I took an excerpt from Hard Times and made this A3 activity to help with summarising and analysing skills. Each activity is times and hopefully it can help with behaviour management or timings for the exam. Enjoy :)

This A3 can be adapted and edited via publisher. You can also print off and cut out the quotes and the mini whiteboards for a more hands-on approach. Please review :)

A quiz testing evaluation skills for the Edexcel GSCE English Language spec.

A quiz testing evaluation skills for the Edexcel GCSE English language spec.

Hi This can be printed for students or displayed in a classroom. It will help students analyse language and structure for any spec by giving them a simple step by step process. Useful for learners who struggle to analyse any text.

I found a Hiroshima extract from Edexcel's website, however, I added an article I found about the war in Syria and made it into a comparison question activity. Feel free to adapt.

An easy quiz with 10 questions that tests skills relating to the GCSE English Edexcel spec, but can be used generically for language and structure features.

Please find an article I found online that was produced by a robot! I have edited the original document. After the article are a series of questions that relate to language and structure techniques in the text. These mini questions are scaffolded to assist in answering the last questions. You will also find teachers’ notes. Enjoy!
