I have included Power points and poems which should act as a stimulus for creative writing, particularly in poetry. Some of the poems were written by me, using the lessons as a starting point for my own writing. These could be used to discuss how people have used the stimulus material in their own writing.

These are a few lessons to introduce students to poetry and get them thinking about what poetry is and how to enjoy it.

This was made for year 9 to encourage viewpoint writing for the AQA paper 2 language exam for question 5. It focuses around anuimals cruelty and could be used at any point with any year group.

I created this for my year 8 class, but you could use this with different year groups as well. I have used different resources from other people and my own, to create this into a scheme of work. I have included all the powerpoints and resources for the scheme.

A booklet for Jekyll and Hyde for GCSE - there are resources in here about context and the more difficult vocabulary is broken down, using crosswords and mix and match activities.

I made this and it can last for a few lessons. It gets students to create speeches and pieces of writing that are persuasive. It also gets students reading and annotating persuasive appeals.

Here are 5 lessons that focus on different arguments and persuasive appeals. There are ones about war and the justification for it, poverty and animal cruelty.

This resource covers reading and writing skills and looks at different sub-genres of Sci-Fi literature. There are reading and writing skills integrated throughout. There are a number of independent tasks for students to complete. The idea is to give studnets a grounding in both genres in order for them to be able to apply these ideas to the literature they study.

This is a resource, mainly for revision of A Christmas Carol, but could be used in a lesson as well. There are two A3 sheets with quotations for characters and themes. I have also attached copies of the resource in A4, in case this is more useful. I printed the sheets and laminated them for my classes and can use them all year round.

I made this to use with my KS4 classes. It has quotes for each character in the play and then has which act and scene each quotation is from. I print it out and laminate it for my classes.

Two A3 sides of character quotes. I have broken them down into different acts for each character and then put them into different categories if necessary. These are great revision resources and could be printed and then laminated and used as a classroom resource.
