I like resources which are visual and can be used on different levels. I've been teaching for a long time and relish the challenge of helping others learn.

Feedback on this please :) Students decide on a real life dilemma between a woman and her husband. Lots of scope for drama and enough for two lesson. Read the second to last slide first ! Based on actual case in America. All ready to deliver and argue.

50 questions with answers for form time. Runs itself but has plenty of scope to expand students' knowledge. They could write their own in pairs!

Not my idea, but I use this with low ability, reluctant readers. Works wonders. Rules on the slides and texts/novels/plays etc work well with this game. Classes practically begging to read aloud after one lesson of this !

Lesson explores the Joint Enterprise Laws in the UK and asks what is fair and unfair in the world of young people and their decision making. Includes very sobering message from the Police and prisoners. Adaptable, but go through lesson before showing to students. If you use, give your views :)

Visual adaptation of this famous problem with solution included and print out (be careful to cut off the solution) for those who need it. Great fun and scope for adaptation to a myriad of situations, e.g lockers, classrooms etc. Feedback please :)

Students work in pairs through this 'board game' activity, answering questions generated by the throw of a die. Use coins for counters. Adapt questions to any text/level. Student led lesson. Get them to note difficult questions. Pair less able with more able. Hours of possibilities

Lower ability, uses images to elicit response. Choose to ask students WHICH image they would choose from the poem. Lesson involves students selecting positive and negative element from the river's experience. Introduces the idea of personification...h/w to produce a similar poem of your own (can be powerpoint with images)
