A whole lesson on figurative language techniques- metaphor, simile, adjectives, personification, pathetic fallacy, onomatopoeia and sensory description. This resource includes a clear and colourful 30 slide Powerpoint, ready to print worksheets, a quiz and a class game. After a brief introduction, students are encouraged to identify the techniques used in a short extract and comment on the effect. There is also a worksheet with an examples/definitions matching activity and students write their own examples using the devices studied in the lesson. Finally there is an interactive class game, where students work in a pair or a team. After looking at an image prompt, students then take it in turns to craft a description using one of the techniques for a certain amount of points. Suitable for KS3 creative writing lessons or as an introduction to AQA Paper 1 Q5 descriptive writing for KS4.

A useful planning sheet for GCSE students to use when putting their spoken language ideas together.

AQA English Language Paper 1 Section A Revision - Detailed Focus on Question 4 A series of six revision ‘masterclass’ lessons designed to improve students’ responses to question 4 on Paper 1. Students often struggle with this part of the paper so I have created this resource specifically to build students’ confidence in tackling this question. Each lesson includes learning objectives, a starter and review activity, model answers and opportunities for students to self/peer assess and reflect upon their own progress. I have also created a full exam paper for each of the texts so that students can also practise completing questions 1 - 3. Included in the resource: 89 slide presentation 74 page student revision and workbook Question 4 knowledge organiser/revision mat Question 4 writing bookmark Markscheme and indicative content for the texts Texts included: ‘Of Mice and Men’, ‘A Monster Calls’, ‘The Graveyard Book’, ‘Rebecca’, ‘The Great Gatsby’, ‘The Goldfinch’ Feedback greatly appreciated - please leave a review!

This comprehensive PowerPoint, when printed (or emailed) as a booklet, can be used as an English Language intervention and also makes an ideal revision aid. It is modelled on the AQA 9-1 GCSE English Language new specification and includes eight sessions covering both paper one and paper two helping pupils to feel more prepared for their exams. With over 140 slides, this booklet has a series of easy to follow activities, exam questions and model answers for each of the ten questions of the GCSE. Each session is designed for students to be able to work through independently, or in small groups. Personally, I have given it as revision to my students, where they work through the booklet in their own time and use what they have learned on the homework tasks - which I then mark and give feedback on and my pupils have enjoyed the challenges and gained confidence in their exam technique. It could be used for isolation and exclusion tasks, extra revision, class work, homework, for intervention groups, or for GCSE re-sit students. The tasks are aimed at enabling pupils to obtain a grade 5 or above. Skills from all six AQA Assessment Objectives of the English Language course are included, along with extracts from the mark scheme and starter tasks centered around improving the AO6 and grammar skills of the students. There are four GCSE practice papers included: Paper One - Dracula Paper One - The Red Room Paper Two - Bank Robberies Paper Two - Prisons Please check out my other resources. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I created this resource to support a student in recognising common language features in texts. It has helped the student gain confidence in writing about texts.

A fantastically detailed Edexcel English Language Paper 2 Section A knowledge organiser / revision mat that includes a step by step approach to all Section A questions (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, Q5, Q6, Q7a, Q7b), scaffolded answers, sentence starters, key vocabulary, language feature analysis, structural feature analysis, a detailed approach to evaluating texts, comparisons, beginnings, endings, tone, purpose, audience, form, types of text and more. Fantastic revision materials for GCSE students for Edexcel English Language Paper 2 students. The resource includes an editable PowerPoint AND a PDF file to make things easier to print out onto A3 paper. Includes a five page A4 version for ease of printing or to use as revision flash cards!

Four A4 sheets for each AQA English exam paper. Each sheet has a structure strip to support students with their writing including sentence starters.

A table of some of the most common language techniques with definitions and examples.

I've always had a lot of difficulty with my students using slang and text or informal language in their ELA work. I devised this handy worksheet to help students understand the difference and when it is appropriate to use each type of language. In the worksheet, there are a set of scenarios with an intended audience for each. The students have to decide if the language is formal or informal and then if it matches the intended audience. An extension activity for homework is also included.

Hi This workbook contains 13 activities that are tailored to Edexcel and AQA, but mainly Edexcel. The transactional writing activities can be used for most specs. Inside is: SPaG activities Spider Diagram/Story planner Non Fiction Fiction MOCKS Comparison 7a and 7b Speeches Articles Text Book Letters Please review/share :)
