Edexcel have not done a great job of providing SAMs for the new IGCSE, and there are few past papers yet. I have created lots of them. They closely follow the format of the SAMs and past papers. Many of the unseen resources are from old spec IGCSE lang papers. This one uses Danger of a Single Story from the Anthology. It also has a full marks scheme.

Because Edexcel have not been too great about creating SAMs for the new IGCSE Language spec I decided to have a go myself. This one is a Paper 1 which closely follows the format of the SAMs. The unseen text is one from the old spec, and the Anthology Text is Chinese Cinderella.

Each of these is an A4 sheet covering one of the poems from the Lit exam. Included are: Blessing; Half Past Two; Hide and Seek; Poem at Thirty Nine; War Photographer. They are very useful for revision purposes. They can be enlarged and used as posters, too.

For Edexcel IGCSE Literature, pupils need to include lots of relevant context in their exam essays on the novel. I have designed this booklet as a handy way for students to collect lots of context stuff in a way that makes it easy to refer to and revise from. There’s a page for exploring how the title, taken from Burns’ To a Mouse links to each chapter in the novel. Next, there are pages dedicated to each chapter, with plenty of room for recording textual examples and quotations as well as context. The final pages are organised by character, so the students can quickly revise the relevant context connected to each of them. Please note: I haven’t included the contextual information in the booklet. This is merely a handy way of organising what they find out.

This resource contains 11 key extracts from Book 1 of the novel. They have been selected because: they are, in themselves, interesting and revealing moments which shine lights on the settlings and characters of the novel; they are often good examples of Braddon’s style and techniques; and they match very well with extracts from The Cutting Season, which is the novel I pair this one with. Each extract is followed by two boxes: one which allows the students to make notes on any relevant social, historical or biographical contexts which shed light on this extract; the other which encourages the students to make explicit links between this novel and The Cutting Season. If you are pairing Lady A with a different novel, you can easily change the wording in these boxes so they match your choice.

This worksheet can be given to students so they can type their responses directly into the fields provided. Alternatively, you could hand out paper copies and they could handwrite their responses. The tasks include: stating when this scene is set giving a brief synopsis of the scene 8 deep-dive questions into the characters and dialogue exploring the use of stagecraft and plastic theatre in the scene examining relevant contextual factors It is ideal for use with A Level English Literature students, but could be used in Drama lessons, too.

This booklet takes a deep dive into the text. I created it for middle-ability GCSE students, but it would work well with sparky Year 9s, too. It’s organised by chapter (with an extension unit on Chapter 3) and looks closely at language and structure as well as plot and characterisation. Each chapter has a range of guided activities, plus plenty of room for students to make notes. As it’s a word doc, students could access it electronically, and fill in the boxes using a computer if they like. At 40 pages long, it’s ideal for someone preparing to write about it in an exam (such as Edexcel IGCSE Lit), or as a classroom resource for students reading it at KS3. All the page numbers in the booklet refer to the hardback Longman edition, but you could easily change these if you’re using a different one.

I have copied the text from the Edexcel Anthology and interspersed it with boxes for students to write notes in. The boxes have questions, headings or quotations in them to help guide the learners.

Each of these 5 sheets deals with one or two main characters in Much Ado About Nothing. They cover Beatrice, Benedick, Hero, Claudio and the Dons. The table form makes them easy to revise from. Each sheet lists the key characteristics plus a little explanation and then brief, important quotations. There are also boxes containing information about context, language and stagecraft. They work well as essay plans for character questions. They can be laminated and used as placemats on pupils’ desks, or put on walls as a display.
