After extensively searching the internet for suitable, skills-based resources for Key Stage 3, I decided to create my own booklet. This comprehensive resource spans over 70 pages and includes 18 lessons, all designed to focus on essential skills while being easily adaptable to meet the diverse needs of your classes. The lessons are structured in sets of three: A fiction-based lesson emphasising comprehension skills. A nonfiction lesson that explores a variety of non-fiction texts. A writing lesson that complements the non-fiction study. I believe the non-fiction and writing lessons work particularly well together, providing a cohesive learning experience for students. **PLEASE NOTE THE FIRST 10 LESSONS COME FROM ANOTHER BOOKLET ON MY TES SHOP. ** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-13127248]
