Each lesson builds onto the previous ones to enhance prior knowledge and help students retain vocabulary.

I made sure to use a wide range of activities for the four skills: reading, listening, speaking and writing.

Piece of writing that is scaffolded.
Main grammar points seen in the units are tested - then checked in class - then pupils can start writing down their own answers.
For weaker pupils, I tend to show a model answer to support them a bit more.

**Analysez les différences et les similitudes entre les trois personnages principaux. **
French A level essay question and A* model answer on La Haine (Mathieu Kassovitz).
You will have access to complex structures that A level students could use in their essays, guidance regarding how to write a good essay on the film, the plan I used to write my model answer and finally my model answer.
I highlighted my Points, Evidence and Explanations in different colours to help your students analyse the model answer and to show them structures they could have used alternatively (from the complex structures table).
I give the “constuire une dissertation sur La Haine” structures to my weakest students (or to the class when working on their first essay) to help them focus on their ideas more than complex structures.
The markscheme is the one from Edexcel.
Do not hesitate to follow me on Facebook.
More model answers for La Haine are available in my shop.
