AQA English Language Paper 1, Reading Section Overview

(0)
This resource would be best enlarged onto A3 and could be used during teaching this paper, before an assessment or after a marked piece of work in order for students to make improvements. This focuses solely on the reading section of Language Paper 1 and uses ‘The Life of Pi’ (2023 exam) as its focus. It is three pages in length. They sections could be potentially highlighted by students or folded to look less overwhelming and to seem more like a bookmark style tool. This is a grid which includes the key things to remember about the reading section emphasis on the importance of the context box at the top of the extract what each question looks like (based on ‘The Life of Pi’ 2023 paper) questions they should ask themselves for each question to help reading for meaning how to plan (or what I tell mine to do) what should be included to gain specific levels with a short example sentence openers a rough breakdown of marks for grade boundaries the mark scheme with bracketed simplification of some words for students to understand

Blood Brothers Revision Workbook

This workbook is designed to guide students through independently re-reading the play and making notes. It breaks the play down across twelve revision sessions, each of which has three parts: Direction of which pages to read. A set of comprehension questions on this part of the play. A choice of further revision tasks, encouraging students to further reflect on the scenes they have explored. Many of these tasks include challenge questions to encourage higher order thinking. There is also a relevant exam question provided for each of the twelve sessions. I created this because many of my students don’t really know where to start with independent revision, and I also want to see evidence that they’ve read back through the text. It could also be used in school revision sessions. The page numbers used relate to a copy of the play that is available online (link within the resource) but could be adapted for students’ own physical copies of the text.

Independent Revision Booklet: A Christmas Carol

(0)
This booklet contains a series of 13 sessions, designed for students to work through ‘A Christmas Carol’ independently. Each session would last around two hours, and they can be easily broken down or adapted depending on your students’ needs. Useful for setting independent work (e.g. if a student is out of lesson), homework, or directed revision. Students are guided through which pages to read each time (referencing a freely available online copy of the novel, in pdf form so it could also be printed) followed by questions based on comprehension and interpretation. There are then a series of other tasks to ensure students engage with the section they’ve read on a deeper level.
