Power and Conflict Poetry Bundle

Just what you need for this time of year – work AND play! This resource features a set of TWELVE sample exam questions for ‘Power and Conflict’ poetry and ALSO a ‘Fun Pack’ containing a range of activities designed to entertain your students while reinforcing their knowledge of the poets and poetry of the ‘Power and Conflict’ cluster.

Sample Questions:
The questions have been carefully designed to reflect the exact format and demands of the new AQA GCSE English Literature exam paper.

Fun Pack:
1. Table Quiz – this consists of four 15-question rounds, focusing on the opening lines, closing lines, subject matter and titles of the fifteen poems. The table quiz can be run in two ways – you can either call out the questions and have the students fill in the blank answer grids I’ve provided, or you can distribute the handouts I’ve created for each round. For your convenience, I’ve included full answer sheets. These are also on the presentation so that students can correct their own work if necessary. These sheets can also be used as in-class or homework activities as they facilitate a really close re-reading of the poems.

2. Powerpoint Presentation – includes answers so that students can correct their own work.

3. Anagrams – this is an A4 handout of anagrams using the poets’ full names. Answers included.

4. Wordsearch – poets’ names.

5. Wordsearch – poem titles.

6. Crossword A – poem titles.

7. Crossword B – poets’ names.
