NEW AQA Paper 1A practice exam - WHOLE TOWN'S SLEEPING for LESS ABLE students

A highly differentiated resource to support students whose literacy is a barrier to accessing the new GCSE English Language exam papers.

I have adhered to the question format of Qs 1 to 3 of the exam paper but have scaffolded the responses to enable less able students to practise the skills demanded by the new AQA English Language Paper 1A: Reading exam.

To accompany the pupil workbook, I have produced a set of SMART Notebook slides for whole class interactive teaching of the resource.

Q1 - the same
Q2 - cloze exercise
Q3a - sequence the statements to show understanding of narrative events
Q3b - cloze exercise to show comprehension of narrative events, using specialist terminology

I have uploaded lots of these differentiated practice papers now, using extracts from texts including: Frankenstein, War of the Worlds, Dracula, Buddy, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Sniper, The Pearl, The Monkey's Paw, Z for Zachariah, A Christmas Carol and The Hobbit.

Also FREE at my 'shop' are lots of Paper 2s, differentiated in similar ways, as well as loads of specimen Paper 1s and 2s with SMART Notebooks for whole-class teaching Q by Q.

Help yourself and please leave a review.
