The academic jump between GCSE and A level is significant. Often there isn’t a transition program or materials in place, and some students struggle. I have created an ever-growing set of materials to compensate for this skill’s gap and students have found these materials incredibly helpful. I have used these materials after students have completed their GCSEs and indicated that they are planning to move onto ‘A’ level, as homework assignments and even as tools of revision. All have worked well for the students. This power point lesson focuses on the key terms of ‘cacophony’ and ‘caesura’ – the use of critical language is essential. Through a series of structured exercises: the students learn how to understand and place these words into their own critical vocabulary. Colourful and interactive, I have received good feedback on this lesson. This is a complete resource. Enjoy.

These complex and challenging texts remain as controversial in the post-modern world as they did at the time of publication. I have taught these texts a number of times and have refined this resource at the close of every academic year. I have successfully used this resource to lead my teaching in the classroom, as a homework or distance learning material and even as a tool of revision – all have worked well for the students.

This presentation commences with an exploration into the meaning and interpretation of the term, ‘Love’, with structured writing tasks, discussion and mini research tasks - bringing awareness to how the definition functions. This exploration scaffolds a more informed analysis of Gatsby and Othello as constructs, and this is once again taught through a series of structured tasks. Every slide is dynamically illustrated and very engaging. This presentation also contains an extension task and homework assignment. There is no work for you to complete whatsoever. This is a complete resource. Enjoy.
