Everything you need to teach Act 4 Scene 1 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. This is a key scene so the powerpoint is very detailed, requiring at least 2 lessons to cover properly. 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.

This booklet contains over 24 exam style questions based on all the key extracts from Robert Louis Stevenson’s ‘Jekyll and Hyde’. Exam questions are worded in accordance with the latest GCSE English Literature 9-1 specification. Whilst I created this resource with AQA in mind, I’m sure this would prove useful for other exam boards too. Extracts are in chronological order, so students also revise plot and the development of themes/ideas as they tackle the questions. Each question is unique, meaning that the study guide covers all the major themes, events and characters in the novella. Ideal for all teachers as there are (obviously) very fewpast papers for the new specification. I reckon I’ve predicted a few future exam questions here! Visual aids for each chapter, and for certain extracts, are provided to help remind students of key events. There’s also a page of exam tips to help students produce more effective exam responses, containing content and analysis that examiners are specifically looking for. 40 pages jam packed with content. This would make the ideal companion to the study guide/student workbook I have produced on this novella (see shop) Ready to roll, everything a student needs to revise for the exam and boost their confidence in the run up to the exam. Little/no adaptation required and a guaranteed grade saver. Buy in confidence from a TES recommended gold author!

This is a 28 page, fully loaded revision, study and comprehension resource for George Orwell’s Animal Farm. This has been written with the latest AQA (9-1) English Literature GCSE specification in mind, but I’m sure this would work equally well with other exam boards. I’ve tried to make this revision guide as active as possible, so there are lots of activities and tasks for students to do as they work through the booklet. There’s a good balance of information and engaging tasks for students to work through. Contents run as follows: Visual summary of plot Storyboard activity for students to then recall the plot and key events from memory Exploring the significance/symbolism of names in the novel (activity and analysis provided) Context (students explore key figures from the Russian revolution as well as make connections between events from history and events in the novel) Key Quotes - Students explore key quotes through analysis of their meaning and significance (quotes are broken down chapter by chapter) Themes - Students make connections between themes, characters and events in the novel Characterisation - Students have to complete a character profile for all the main characters using the study tasks provided Key Terminology - Exploring some key terminology and theoretical ideas that will deepen their understanding of the novel as well as impress examiners Exam questions - 10 exam questions worded and structured in the same way you will expect to find them on the new 9-1 literature paper Exam Techniques - Hints and tips on how to maximise performance in the exam. Ready to roll, everything a student needs to revise for the exam and boost their confidence in the run up to the exam. Little/no adaptation required. Suitable for a range of abilities. Enjoy!

This is a lively and engaging resource developing students’ word choices and general vocabulary skills. Ideal in preparing students for GCSE English Language Paper 1, Section B. The full scheme of work is available to purchase for just £5. Click this link to check it out! A range of activities designed to develop your pupils’ vocabulary use and to also get them into positive habits of editing and improving vocabulary after having ‘finished’. This has been designed with the new AQA Language Paper 1 specification in mind, which places heavy emphasis on making effective vocabulary choices in the writing, but is equally useful for KS3 teaching and for other major GCSE exam boards.

This is a short powerpoint guiding students through extended reading responses in English, showing them the core ingredients of good introductions and conlusions, whilst also providing modelled examples of effective and ineffective essay style. This is useful in the run up to mock or final examinations, as students often don't know how to start or end their essays in the most effective way. The examples provided relate to Shakespeare's Macbeth, but the activities could relate to any of the set texts they are likely to encounter in GCSE English literature. Feedback welcomed and appreciated.

The mother of all GCSE Animal Farm revision resources.! Huge range of (107 to be precise!) activities to fully prepare students for the new specification 9-1 GCSE exam. This is focused on George Orwell’s Animal Farm. Each slide is a stand-alone activity designed to improve students’ awareness of character, plot, themes, key subject terminology, context, writer’s intentions and those all important quotes! Many of the activities make ideal starters, and plenaries, whilst some of the more extensive tasks can take a whole lesson. Ideal in the run up to the exam! I’ve tried to approach the text from lots of different angles to keep it feeling ‘fresh’ for you and your students.
