Ozymandias - Double lesson - Power and Conflict Cluster

(0)
A lesson introducing students to the context of Ozymandias, the poem's language and it's structure. Includes two extended writing opportunities (one each for language and structure). This lesson is aimed at top set GCSE classes and looks in depth at the sonnet form and how it has been exploited but could easily be adapted to suit lower abilities. Ready to teach and well-presented.

A week-long unit of work that introduces students to the history of the English language - how it came to our shores and how it has developed. Fully differentiated with HA and LA alternative slides, activities and learning objectives, this is a great unit that covers a lot of ground. Used with a Y8 group but could be used with any KS3 class. Lots of research, writing and reading opportunities.

PEAL Checklist - Analysis Support
shoegal44shoegal44

PEAL Checklist - Analysis Support

(0)
A checklist for students to help them to construct an in-depth analysis of a quotation. Leading questions and sentence starters are given to encourage students to independently deconstruct a piece of evidence. Works really well when laminated and students can tick off the boxes as they have considered each question. Has led to lower ability learners become more independent in my classroom and extended their writing beautifully.
