This extract and associated activities gives weaker students a simplified and broken down way of accessing a non-fiction text, on the theme of ‘Buy Nothing Day’, which follows Black Friday and Thanksgiving. In 2024 this day falls on Friday 29 November. This extract is suitable for KS3 students but can be adapted for less able KS4 pupils. The first part poses keywords for the subject. The second part has comprehension and language activities to ensure the text is carefully read. There are tasks which allow the student opportunities to analyse the use of persuasive language.
There is a writing activity which encourages the use of a wide vocabulary, whilst giving students the opportunity to use information from the text they have just read.
This lesson can easily be adapted to suit any GCSE curriculum.
