Edexcel IGCSE English Language coursework pack

This is designed for the Edexcel IGCSE coursework where students have to write about three of the extracts from the anthology. They need to write about at least one poem and one prose text.
The poems discussed here are: ‘Disabled’, ‘Out- Out-’ and ‘Still I Rise’

I have created detailed context information, as well as detailed analytical and evaluative comprehension questions, which take pupils through each poem in great detail. There are detailed notes, and questions, on the form of each poem.

There is also a writing a planning section: detailed planning sheets, with advice for what to include in an introduction and conclusion, as well as what makes up a detailed analytical paragraph. There is an example paragraph with questions, to help students ‘see’ what a ‘good’ paragraph should look like.

The prose passages discussed here are ‘The Necklace’ and ‘The Story of an Hour’. I have made detailed comprehension questions for these, in light of the theme of suffering.

Finally there is a planning section: a table with prompts, detailed advice for analytical paragraphs, including phrases and vocabulary, and prompts for what to think about, suggested word counts, and checklists.
