Ease the pain of unseen poetry. Developed using my skills as a professional poet and Lead Teacher in English with an emphasis on calming the nerves of students in this ‘unseen = unknown’ part of the EDUQAS Literature exam. An A3 sheet that includes a framework built around a mnemonic comprehensively covering unseen poetry skills. Differentiated so that the first parts of the mnemonic support lower grades to comment or allow higher grades to give a rapid overview. Moves through to the skills that help Grade 5 achieve - by exploring language closely - and ends by helping extend the achievement of grade 5+ by exploring poetry as a form that is highly structured, employs aural sensibility and enables exploration of how ideas develop over the course of the poem. Rich in terminology to help support extension into AO2 from AO1 ideas. Methodical to use in class for practice and easy to remember in the examination as a framework.
