I wrote this paragraph for students based on an image of a tiger that we looked at in class. It's good to get students thinking of a 'moving image'.

A quick revision sheet with the different writing forms on it annotated. A visual revision sheet to demonstrate to students the correct layout of each writing form.

Exam style question on Bayonet Charge

This resource includes group work questions that focus on the females within the novella: Belle and Fan. The resource also includes an extension task, which involves an empathetic response based on the questions just answered

A WAGOLL that I created and used with my top set year 11 group for the Language focused question.

Descriptive writing WAGOLL with lots of ambitious vocabulary

I have an all boys group and they needed something that they could just memorise lots of language devices with. Each time a mock came around they would forget what things to look for in the language questions.It's colourful too and can be put up in the classroom.

The start of a modelled response to demonstrate to pupils how to write about mood and atmosphere. The model is aimed at B/C borderline students.

Following grades from a mock exam, students then wrote a message to themselves (a final promise before their actual exam) and then they 'bottled' it up. We then stuck the paper bottles up around the classroom.

This lesson helped me to achieve and outstanding for a recent lesson observation. The PowerPoint looks at an empathetic style exam question and then there is a group work activity. The group work activity is set up so that you have a different character at each different work station, with different questions to get students to think and empathise with each character. Once downloaded, it is really simple to follow.

I designed this structure question for the revision of skills needed for the language paper and the revision of Jekyll and Hyde for the Literature exam.

This is an introduction to writing to advise All of the statements will be relevant to students They could work in groups and write their advice on large sheets of paper When sharing ideas, students could then look to see if they've used modal verbs etc

A simple resource

This is a nice little resource to use that will get students using their inference skills. The students have to match the small section of the text to the relevant illustration. This works well for students cutting them out and sticking them onto A3.

A structured worksheet to help with empathetic writing The resource contains a differentiated version too

A short presentation that structures discussion around spotting the differences in two images and then making inferences.

Exactly as the title says - I used this with my bottom sets.

Activities to look at the graphological features of leaflet writing and then the planning and writing of their own leaflets

Exactly as the title suggests

This presentation goes through possible scenarios/descriptive writing tasks and gets students to think about taking ownership over their writing and making it as creative as possible. This is all done through image stimuli. The first few slides asks students to assess strengths and weaknesses on another student response, to use these slides you will also need to copy your own student response.
