In these five documents you will receive a written version of each lesson that is taught practically through KS3 and KS4. As we all know sometimes plan A does not always work for every student; but plan B provides you with the space to continue with the original plan while keeping all of your students involved according to the core outcome of that day’s lesson. These five documents provide a written version for each of the modules listed; so I would advise purchasing the module they relate to in my store for example in year seven I start with introduction to drama skills and these documents provide me with a written version of my practical lesson if I need to use them. In the past I have used them for students who are in the SEND department when work is asked for, when a pupil needs to be removed due to behaviour or for when a student is struggling to assess the practical work of the lesson. They are a great back up!
