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

A handy revision sheet with the conventions of each transactional writing type on there. The back of the sheet has suggested openings and closings for students.

Full lesson with a typical exam question for the new specification Question is on Macbeth and Power

A revision resource that shows students what they need to write about in each paragraph of their essays on poetry. The PETAL structure details how they need to structure each one of those paragraphs.

As the title states

A series of statements that show where Lady Macbeth takes control within the play Macbeth

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.

A revision mat to help students to get their ideas down on paper. An alternative to use instead of the regular PEE. It has a specific focus on language and the effect that the writer may be trying to achieve. This worked especially well with my more able learners.

Exactly as the title suggests

Differentiate the amount of money that you give to students. Students can then purchase teacher help. The idea is to create resilient and independent students.

PowerPoint includes word classes etc

You will also need a past student response to aid this PowerPoint Students will 1st work identifying elements that are successful in the student response and filling out the grid Then, move onto thinking about the task title - in this PP it is to describe the scene at a park There are some images to get students thinking creatively and imaginatively Students should then aim to write at least one descriptive paragraph by the end of the lesson

This resource allows students to revisit the apparitions at the end of the play and explore how they actually tricked Macbeth.

These are the PowerPoints that I rolled out to my school as part of my role as whole school Literacy co-ordinator. The task on each PowerPoint should last about 25 minutes; the remainder of the lesson spent reading for enjoyment. Within each PowerPoint you have a differentiated task for year 7,8 &9. Printable worksheets with these too! I have more week-by-week focuses; look in my shop :)

Can be adapted and changed to suit your own in house grading criteria

As the title says A tick list that will assist with identifying strengths and weaknesses in own work

This full SOW can be completed alongside any novel at all.
