A series if lessons all designed to promote pupils understanding of GCSE assessment objectives and engage in reflective learning.
My department found these resources hugely successful in empowering students to take ownership of their learning and progress effectively.
This resource comprises 5 Entry Level Assessments.
It contains extracts from 5 novels/novellas in which pupils have to identify and analyse the text according to Entry Level (Reading Paper) requirements. This gives pupils a taste of what may be to come at GCSE level without being intimidating.
Each assessment tests the pupils on similar skills, therefore they can be used to attempt to build upon skills and show continual progress.

The individual lessons on offer have mainly 5 star reviews.
Although a broad range of skills are focused on within the lessons, the overall objective of the lessons is to improve extended writing. This is achieved using a creative variety of task, focusing on the fine line between giving students confidence by scaffolding and creating independent thinkers.
