Boys Don't Cry lesson - IEEL paragraphs

(0)
In this complete Year 9 or 10 lesson, pupils will learn how to write an IEEL paragraph which is the building-block of GCSE English Literature essays. This stand-alone lesson fits into my series of lessons and resources on ‘Boys Don’t Cry’ by Malorie Blackman, focusing on chapters 8 and 9. This is a complete lesson with all the resources: powerpoint differentiated worksheets example EDUQAS GCSE English Literature exam question example paragraphs detailed lesson plan both word/PowerPoint and PDF formats are provided Curriculum Objective: Know how to write an IEEL (Identify, Explain, Example, Link) paragraph. Outcome: By the end of the lesson, students will be able to construct an IEEL paragraph using appropriate subject-specific vocabulary. This is a ready-to-go ‘Ofsted-proof’ four-part lesson with 4 sections: starter (inc. extension task), input, activity (with extra support for those who need it) and plenary. No planning or previous knowledge needed (from either teacher or students). The lesson has been designed for a Year 9/10 class who have just begun reading the novel, ‘Boys Don’t Cry’ as a GCSE text. It is suitable as a pre-reading lesson, to use as revision, or when moving on to exam questions. You could even use it as an introduction to writing IEEL paragraphs without reading the novel. I have over 20 years in teaching English at GCSE. I am an experienced GCSE examiner with EDUQAS.

Boys Don't Cry: Author's Techniques Self-marking Activity

(0)
This is an interactive, self-marking activity for engaging pupils with ten of the main** author techniques **in ‘Boys Don’t Cry’ by Malorie Blackman. Students are given a riddle and must match each definition to a choice of techniques in order to solve it. A word bank is provided on the activity. This activity will help to engage your students with the names, definitions and spellings of key subject terminology for GCSE English Literature. Self-marking - if the student’s screen spells out the whole word, they’ve chosen all of the terms correctly! Great to use as a starter, plenary, revision or homework activity. Can be used at any point of teaching the novel, or at the pre-reading stage, as no characters or events from the novel are featured in this activity. I found that this activity took my Year 9s about 10 minutes to complete. Please note: This is a Microsoft Excel activity. Students will need access to Excel to be able to use this. If you have found this resource useful, please leave me a positive review and take a look at my other English teaching resources in my TES shop. *Answer: LITERATURE protagonist 2. simile 3. exclamation 4. foreshadowing linear structure 6. dramatic irony 7. parallels 8. internal monologue stock phrases 10. dual narrative*
