Everything you need to teach Act 4 Scene2 of Shakespeare’s Macbeth. This is also available as part of a complete scheme of work whereby a considerable saving can be made; further details can be found here. The lessons have been created specifically for teaching at GCSE level, and cover the key assessment objectives for 9-1 New-Specification AQA: understanding of the text, language and structure, context/themes/author intent (although equally applicable to other exam boards). Differentiated outcomes and tasks allow you to reach all learners, although I would recommend the lessons specifically for middle to higher ability students. Throughout the scheme, students are encouraged to make notes and annotate the text, as this will be a valuable revision tool when preparing for exams. Teacher notes are provided on the PowerPoint to help explain and guide you through all phases of the lesson, with a range of interesting and engaging tasks for you to choose from. Importantly, full analysis is provided for all the tasks set, to enable you to lead interesting and engaging discussions which will deepen the students’ appreciation of the text. Strictly speaking, there is a lot more here than you would fit into a 1 hour lesson, so you may wish to spread this over a couple of lessons, or perhaps be a little selective with the tasks you wish to do. PDF version is for preview purposes. Buy in confidence from a TES recommended gold author! If you loved the resource and think it’s worth 5 stars, why not get another one absolutely free?

Complete Punctuation and SPaG scheme of work for Key Stage 3 and GCSE. It’s time to win the battle against poor grammar and punctuation once and for all! Complete unit of work which will allow your students to master advanced punctuation as well as engage with a range of exciting creative writing tasks. If you are anything like me, explicit teaching/reminding of how to properly apply punctuation is ESSENTIAL for all ability ranges, especially with the new specification GCSE placing so much emphasis on AO6. These lessons are certainly geared more towards KS3 and KS4 students. Powerpoints are light hearted and fun, with plenty of images/colour and silly jokes to keep your students engaged and entertained. I’ve found these lessons serve as an excellent ‘crash course’ in punctuation either at the beginning of the academic year or in the run up to the GCSE exams. Below is a list of contents: Commas (£2 if purchased on its own) - Commas powerpoint lessons Commas in a list worksheet Commas in a complex sentences worksheet Colons (£2 if purchased on its own) - Colon powerpoint lessons Mastering colons worksheet Semi-Colons (£2 if purchased on its own)- Semi-colon lesson powerpoints Semi-colon worksheets (x2) Semi-colon writing success criteria worksheet Speech- (£2 if purchased on its own) Speech powerpoint lessons Speech worksheet Speech mixed practice worksheet Writing success criteria worksheet Editing and proof reading - (£3 if purchased on its own) Editing and proof reading mini scheme powerpoint (nearly 50 slides) Editing and proof reading worksheets (£2 if purchased separately) A wide range of proof reading worksheets that you can use to consolidate and improve your student’s SPaG and proof reading abilities after you have finished the unit of work. This unit would suit a range of abilities as there is lots of scope for stretch and challenge, with ambitious success criteria and extension tasks built in throughout. Scaffolding and differentiation options are built in where appropriate. Fully resourced and ready to roll, minimal adaptation or tweaking required. This is obviously a SPaG/Punctuation scheme of work, but it is equally focused on creative/descriptive writing too. Much of the content is therefore ideal for teaching general creative writing skills or preparing for the fiction writing task on the new specification (9-1) GCSE English Language exam. Grab a bargain compared to buying these resources separately. If you loved the resource and think it’s worth 5 stars, why not get another one absolutely free?

A collection of detailed and visually appealing posters exploring the context of An Inspector Calls in relation to when the play was set. These are great to have as a classroom display in your room. Similarly, these can be used as part of a marketplace activity whereby students learn about various contextual factors during a lesson. Rather than focus on specific contextual facts, I’ve broken context down into key themes, that way students can make more effective links between social/historical context and the play itself. Ideal for helping students to understand and embed AO3 into their analysis. If you liked the resources it’d be great if you could leave a review.

Also available as a great value scheme of work here! If you are anything like me, you probably realise that just because students get into KS3 (and even KS4), it doesn’t automatically mean they know how to use punctuation properly, especially commas. This is a complete PowerPoint of thoroughly planned lessons which are designed to allow students to truly master the comma and its complex uses. The activities are lively and engaging, and the PowerPoint has a fun and relevant feel to it (using memes, cracking jokes etc) so that the idea of learning about commas (again) doesn’t feel childish or lame to them. As a minimum, you have 2 lessons worth of work here, closer to 4 if you decide to do the writing tasks thoroughly. To accompany the PowerPoint, there are two worksheets which tie in nicely to the PowerPoint and allow students to put into practice what they are being taught. I’m guessing this is probably going to suit lower to middle ability students: those on the border who tend to really struggle with SPaG and literacy. That said, I’ve often found it necessary to do the 2nd lesson (on subordinate clauses and very complex sentences) with my top sets too. Absolutely ready to roll and fully resourced. Very little adaptation or tweaking required as scaffolding and extension tasks are built in. Enjoy! If you loved the resource and think it’s worth 5 stars, why not get another one absolutely free?

That way, as you continue to set different questions, good writing skills will become habitual. Most importantly, marking the work is really easy. Simply circle the effort level and highlight a target from the target bank. Diagnostic marking without even having to write a single word!

A comprehensive set of documents which aid with the writing of reports, hopefully providing you with the tools you need to write fair, honest and balanced reports for English. The comment bank covers the following areas (as you can see from the preview there are documents for each): Introductory comments/learning cognition and progress Topics Covered Behaviour and Attitude (with targets) Reading/comprehension (and targets) Writing skills (and targets) The resources are suited to secondary Key Stages 3 and 4. Most of the comments simply require you to add a student’s name or to write their specific gender in the space provided. I’m sure these will save you a good deal of time and effort, and help bring a little inspiration to the baleful process of report writing!
