A lesson aimed at low ability boys which uses the topic of Tyson Fury to teach the skills required for Language Paper 2 Question 4. Rather than use a 19th century text, I chose to use two 21st century texts to provoke the comparison to help build the comparative skills required for this question…
Students read two articles about Fury. One was written in 2020 and one in 2015 when Fury was a more controversial figure. They then find quotations and follow a writing frame to compare the writers’ viewpoints about Fury in the two texts.
There is also an example grade 6 paragraph to help guide students.
I have also added a similar task looking at two contrasting articles about Peppa Pig. This works well with introducing KS3 students to the style of question they will encounter at KS4.

This is a great resource and even higher ability students were grateful to be having something where they could practise the writing skills with clearer content. I'm going to use it again and always! Thanks for sharing, it's finding decent articles that takes the time.
