Poetry - Unseen (Armitage - 'Resistance'), full lesson, Ukraine / Russia conflict

BUNDLE - Poetry: full scheme of work, range of poems for GCSE/KS3, introduction, analysis and unseen skills

This bundle includes a range of poetic study with a lot of cross over to creative tasks, designed originally as a scheme for year 9 as an introduction to poetic study. Roughly 12-16 full lessons included. The scheme aims to develop approaches to understanding and interpreting poetry in a pupil-centred way, without the teacher dictating notes. It builds analysis skills and aims to help pupils understand why people write poetry. It would form a great introduction to poetic analysis, or for developing unseen skills required for the AQA literature exams. This bundle contains a whopping £18 worth of resources (when sold separately) and every lesson has been tried and tested. It also touches on creative writing and oracy, with built in tasks that springboard from the poems studied. Poems included: Medusa Hitcher Salome Last Duchess Clown Punk About His Person Sonnet 18 The Raven Resistance (Armitage's new Ukraine-Russia poem) PLUS an introductory lesson looking at 4 other poems!
