A starter activity to get students involved in different types of fiction. You will need to cut out each of the constituent parts, but this is a great starter activity with the kids working together to match them up.

911, Bin Laden and Afghanistan

(3)
A selection of resources aimed at EBD children. Dyslexic friendly. These resources challenge and develop students knowledge of Afghanistan and it’s religious laws, Bin Laden and his involvement in 911 and the event of 911 itself. You need copies of The Kite Runner to read or see along with the video of the 911 impact. I had major success with these resources and have included photo’s i have taken myself at ground zero in the worksheets.

Creative Writing: The Titanic

I created these resources whilst on a second school placement during my GTP. The aim was to get a year 9 group to write creatively but familiarize them with GCSE marking criteria (Welsh Board). The information surrounding the Titanic was to provide a stimulus for them to write their own story.

KS3: Survival Reading Assessment

A series of lessons and resources designed for a top set year 8 class. The extracts are a mixture of fiction and non-fiction. The focus was to take a group of year 8 students who are used to using the PEE structure and get them to write a concept focused response. I’ve included the model responses we built as a class, as well as the model response the students were provided.

First Day Feelings

Linked to the Roald Dahl 'Boy' SoW. I used these powerpoints and worksheets to differentiate for a very large middle set year 7 group. Reasonable success - the worksheets allows the top end to focus on their own development, leaving me to focus on those who were really struggling.

AQA English Language Paper 1 Revision lesson: The Scarlet Plague

So my school got a-hold of some exams for purposes of our year 11s sitting mock exams. This is the lesson I am using to teach the little so-and-sos what went wrong and how to fix it. For this lesson to have relevance, you will needed to have had your students sit the actual exam. Saying that, you could probably get away with photocopying the extract and running it as a walking-talking mock (say that's not a bad idea...). This lesson is simple: it goes through each question in order and identifies some general common errors made in the students' answers, some paraphrased student responses are included as discussion points (just a quick one, when I say that the response comes from an answer that got X amount of marks, I am awarding that mark to a complete answers, not the section I have chosen to show) and finally some specific areas of focus. You have enough for about 4-5 lessons here, depending on how much you focus on the larger questions. Enjoy.

I did this as an end of year task with my Year 7's. Essentially it is putting on a puppet show of Pyramus and Thisbe, the idea being that the students tell a modern version but using elements of Shakespearean language. Set up for SLAF 3 but easy enough to alter for SLAF 1 and 2.
