I have made a document for my students which lists the key quotations from the novel in chapter order. The document is 30 pages long, with quotations from all 28 chapters, as well as the foreword and epigraph.
This allows them to prioritise quotations for analysis and also to track key themes and motifs throughout the novel. I have also included my top 20 recommended quotations at the beginning.
These are my resources for helping students prepare for the Curious Incident (play version) question on the AQA English Literature paper. The cheat sheet is designed to narrow down the number of quotations students attempt to learn, and allow them to link quotations to multiple themes, and character questions, in order to overcome the fear of answering questions without the text or extract.
Together, both files contain 38 small quotations, and by memorising as many as possible of these, students will be able to access and answer any exam question they are faced with.
The first file is purely for Christopher, with the themes that can be related to his character and then the quotations that have been selected. The smaller boxes are where the students should revise that quote - reminding themselves of its context in the play, and putting some technical analysis. On the remaining pages there are larger boxes for students to make notes as to how each quotation links to different themes, perhaps writing some practice sentences and paragraphs to ensure they can link each one specifically. The second file is the same, but containing quotations for Ed, Judy, Siobhan and Stage Directions.
There are resources here for teaching the entire Romeo and Juliet text. Every Act and Scene is dealt with via powerpoint presentation, with accompanying tasks, activities - all differentiated. There are also various revision materials for key characters, and a 25 page document which contains a table of quotations for each character with space to make notes.
A 25 page document with quotations organised by character. Quotations to learn for Romeo, Juliet, Lord Montague, Lord Capulet, Lady Capulet, Mercutio, Benvolio, Tybalt, Nurse, Friar Lawrence, Friar John and the Chorus. The quotations are in tables, with space for notes about themes, technical terms and context.
These are revision sheets for 5/6 main characters in the play: Romeo, Juliet, Paris, Friar Lawrence and the Capulets. The revision sheets are broken into 4 squares, intended for students to use for either self or peer assessment, to allow them to identify areas of their knowledge where there are gaps. The areas covered are the character's plot-line, themes which link to the character, quotations from the character, and effect of certain moments on the audience.
This is my powerpoint and lesson for studying Romeo and Juliet Act 5, Scenes 1, 2 and 3. There are differentiated activities, tasks, technical term and quotation analysis, a paragraph structure towards the end of Scene 2. Scene 3 is then on a seperate sheet, with the plot broken down into 18 statements, the powerpoint then contains 18 jumbled quotations for students to match to the statements, with extensions of technical analysis and audience effect built in. All is self-contained and ready to use in a lesson.
This is a powerpoint with 25 slides of activities, covering a review of the play so far, working through a PETAL (Point, Evidence, Technical Term, Audience Analysis, Link) paragraph, and then all the way through Act 4. All activities are differentiated, and the powerpoint is ready to go with no amending needed.
These are all my resources for teaching Curious Incident, the play version, for AQA English Literature.

This is a scanned copy of my annotated version of The Yellow Wall-Paper, it is highlighted with key quotations and annotated for analysis, themes, interpretations and technical terms.

Also includes a model paragraph for showing to students.
