This scheme of work has been made for a low ability Year 10 group and it leads up to a piece of controlled assessment comparing the poems: Exposure, Dulce et Decorum Est and Anthem for Doomed Youth. I hope these resources go some way to doing the great poet justice!

This is a scheme of work teaching OMAM to a low ability Year 10 group to prepare them for a controlled assessment on setting. The page numbers on the long term plan relate to the LONGMAN LITERATURE version of the novella. You will need to look at the LTP to see what pages need to be read in each lesson. Happy teaching!

This is a full scheme of work for Year 8. It ends with a narrative/creative writing assessment task where the students write a short story based on an animated film. Under my resources you will find all 13 lessons plus the medium term plan. Enjoy!

This is a scheme of work mainly aimed at Year 9 pupils studying Macbeth. The unit will end in a reading assessment on the question: How does Shakespeare present the causes and consequences of greed in the play Macbeth? This could also be adapted for KS4 classes. A lesson plan is included with each lesson so you can understand my thought process. Macbeth is possibly my favourite Shakespeare play, so I hope I have done it justice!
