Furthermore, Teacher notes on all 8 extracts are also attached in this resource as individual word docs, and these have also been scanned into a teacher booklet which also has annotated copies of the 8 extracts and then teacher notes after each one, ie 25 pages in all, with a front sheet. Overall, then, this offers students a further 8 practice extracts to work on prior to the exam itself.
