Two separate 50 slide PowerPoints on the language 'HOW' questions on the paper 1 exam. There is a lecturer podcast also provided by a GCSE examiner. Grade 9 answer analysis.
An in-depth PowerPoint on desert island discs, proof reading and sentence structure. I have also included a starter on celebs as kids. The students love it!
A fantastic lesson on handwriting. The lesson focuses on the most common problems children have with handwriting and gives a number of helpful solutions (short & long term).
Quiz using pictures of different cities. Useful as a starter on a unit about cities. Is also useful to get pupils looking for clues in images to help locate them somewhere in the world.
A fun activity the student love! Great for analysing texts (could be use for R&W exams). In groups, students take photos of the 6 types of picture given to them e.g. perspective, reflection, jump photo etc. They then have to recreate three famous photographs e.g. Rosa Parks, Afghan Girl etc. The students then need to analyse the famous photos and their own! All resources included.
The students are told that a first reaction to looking at any photograph is probably an immediate response, whether you like it, or not. However, photographs can be analysed in more detail. Almost any photograph has a lot to offer if you learn to ‘read’ it.
A PowerPoint lesson looking at the theme of narrative writing. The following points are covered:
Personal Narrative
Fictional Narrative
Point of View
Character
Setting
Conflict (Man vs…self / man / nature / society / technology / supernatural)
Plot - using Disney’s Mulan as an example.
Theme
A PowerPoint collection of The Most Powerful & Influential Photographs Ever. Each photo has information and a description. It is also available to view as a 8 min video clip (included).
