An outline to help students carry out independent research on the context of ACC.

A full set of powerpoints with annotation questions for A Christmas Carol. I made this for my year 10s who were isolating for most of our time reading ACC. Questions are colour coded to fit with the coloured questions. Key quotes are highlighted in bright yellow. Can be used to assist in class teaching or independent work at home.

Here are my changed up / edited versions of the Ruth Miskin Fresh Start booklets to make them more suitable for my classes as I wanted to add a few more things in & change the order it was in. I have currently edited modules 2-25 and will add 26+ onto this resource once I have done them, so keep checking back so that you can just re-download them with your original purchase.

A blank Literature and Language QLA. Language QLA is broken down to individual questions to see which questions your class is either exeeding in or falling behind in. Literature QLA has broken down the invidiual Assessment Objectives. AO1, AO2 & AO3 are all broken down out of 30 marks. We mark the individual AOs to see students strengths and weaknesses. We do use an A-E system (Advanced, Secure, Developing & Emerging), but these can be changed.

24 lessons for Private Peaceful that works on reading the text, comprehension, descriptive skills, literature PEE paragraphs. Followed by a ‘courtdown debate’ set of lessons (takes about 3 lessons).

17 lessons on based on Roald Dahl’s ‘Boy’. I find it takes longer than 17 lessons as the reading tends to take longer, so probably more like 20-25 lessons worth. We use this as our introductory SOW for year 7 so fit for mixed ability groups.
