A list of ambitious vocabulary and short definitions of words I noticed from reading lots of grade 9 level Lord of the Flies exam responses. Hopefully this is useful for students aiming for the top grades.
This learning journey contains 10 tasks to prepare students for a descriptive writing task based on an image for AQA Paper 1 Question 5.
The 10 tasks gradually increase in difficulty.
Linking the completion of a set number of tasks to rewards works as a motivating factor for students.
A task involving transforming a simple 3 paragraph grade 3 piece of narrative writing into a grade 4/5 response.
Students rewrite the grade 3 description with improvements in the following areas:
varied sentence types
varied openers
varied punctuation
ambitious vocabulary
similes and metaphors
Simple but effective lesson.
Students practise using a combination of simple, compound and complex sentences within descriptive paragraphs using the power and conflict poems as inspiration for their writing.
Students then review their paragraph by exploring the impact of each sentence type.
To develop their paragraph further, students can add a wider variety of punctuation by responding to the 3 prompts.
8 questions to encourage students to consider how Dickens’ A Christmas Carol explores abstract and conceptual ideas about the human condition. Useful as a stretch activity.
