This lesson is the final lesson in the series of individual lessons and draws on engaging activities to nurture both independence and enquiry in learners. This resource includes a 'leading' extract questionnaire to support students who find this text challenging alongside stretch and challenge tasks. This resource also includes extract and essay tasks in line with examination style questions. At the end of the powerpoint are a number of activities based on the whole text to ensure students have both a clear overview and the opportunity to create substantial revision resources. Available as part of a 'Book 2' bundle and a 'Whole Text' bundle.

Following the success of my first collection of 19th century non fiction extracts, here is a further collection with 6 more extracts for practice analysis.

This lesson uses a paper thematically linked to 'Space' and takes students through a series of leading questions in order to help them break down the methods they can use to approach this final question on the Non Fiction paper. It also includes reference to PALS as a method of talking about authors ideas and perspectives. My year 11 group found this lesson enormously clarifying as a revision lesson.

This powerpoint incorporates all the skills required by the new GCSE specifications and would be appropriate for teaching this text at both KS3 (top end) or KS4. The resource includes challenge tasks, language, form and structure analysis, dramatic tasks, recreations of scene, engaging use of ICT and nods to including Maths in the English curriculum. This is everything you need to teach this section of the play and would take between 7-9 hours to teach in its entirety.

A complete analysis of language, form and structure including indications for content according to grades and challenge tasks. This lesson is engaging, whilst also developing inquiry and independent learners. This is everything you need to teach this poem.

This lesson takes students through a range of questions and foci on Betjeman's poem. This lesson encourages students to refine independent enquiry skills and concludes with a paired and peer assessed essay task broken into segments for ease of access.

This resource is a domino game with the narrative devices introduced at KS5, this is an engaging yet challenging way of getting students to identify what they do/don't know. This can be run as either a whole class game or print a set for each student and race to first completed (the method I prefer!).

These resources consider the context, form, language and structure in this poem through activities, discussion, note taking and creative activities. This resource includes an assessment proforma to evidence progression of learning and to help students identify key aspects of the text ready for revision nearer to their GCSE exams.

This lesson is an excellent introduction the feminist background and theory, it uses an extract from Charlotte Gilman Perkins 'The Yellow Wallpaper' and leads students through a feminist reading of the text. This lesson includes references and explanations of 'Herstory' and 'L'ecriture Feminine' and proved highly progressive with my year 12 students.

This crib sheet is perfect for students who may not have done as much revision as they ought to have done, it gives them everything they need to know in one place and would work well for last minute revision sessions before the Transactional Writing Paper.

This lesson builds on the first resource in this series (on H is for Hawk) and challenges students to work a little more independently in identifying methods used by the author in the text through a worksheet activity. This would make an ideal resource for homework or for a flipped learning activity. Students have the opportunity to engage with the demands of this IGCSE curriculum individually or in pairs whilst completing this task before then moving on to a powerpoint presentation that methodically takes students through the Ideas and Perspectives question. The lesson concludes with another independent task whereby students apply their learning on an unseen text, replicating the IGCSE exam structure. My students progressed rapidly as a result of this step by step approach and were more secure on the later extracts we studied. I hope your students enjoy these activities as much as mine did. This resource includes a past paper and the mark scheme for ease of use.

This resource introduces students to a range of language and structural devices required in their Edexcel IGCSE examination, however, this resource is also suited for any teachers looking for an extract on which to practise these skills. Learning is scaffolded through analysis of short phrases and sections from the whole extract to enable students to feel secure in their GCSE level analysis. This resource includes a powerpoint and a homework task so that learning can go beyond the classroom. The tasks are designed so that students gain confidence before attempting individual tasks and the lesson includes talk time and time when students can annotate the text on the whiteboard if you have this facility. My students find these resources hugely helpful in accessing higher grades and have historically done very well in their final exams, approaching them with confidence and a wide range of understanding in regard to methods used. Students are continually prompted to update their records and recall methods to help embed this information in their long term memory. The full extract is not included, however, if you should need this please do ask and I can email the full anthology to you, it is also available on the Edexcel website. I hope you enjoy this as much as my students have and do.

A complete 4 week Transition or Introductory Unit of work for KS3. This is engaging with lots of interesting activities to complete and ending with the creation of a 'Detective Game Board'. My students loved this scheme of work and it enabled us to set classroom rules for learning within a relaxed bubble of learning. The resource includes week by week powerpoints plus extracts, homework and an easy to follow scheme of work.

These resources introduce students to the themes contained in this text, explores the characterisation of Silas Marner and uses some engaging kinaesthetic activities (Human Weaving Machine and Court Room) to capture the imaginations of students who might find studying 19th century fiction more difficult. Chapter 2 is also included here and concentrates predominantly on teaching students 'how to' analyse extracts at GCSE level. If you like this resource please follow me as more resources are being prepared on this text and will be released very soon.

This lesson takes you through the links between Marilyn Monroe and this play text ensuring that students can discuss this in the context of the themes that this play throws up. This lesson draws on engaging activities, such as quote finds, parallel timelines, research tasks and a quiz that demands higher level thinking. Literary terminology is encouraged throughout to ensure students familiarise with this during teaching.

These resources offer a thorough exploration of this poem and its context through a range of engaging and creative activities. The lesson is fully differentiated with supportive images and tips for lower ability students and regular challenges for the higher ability students in your groups. These resources include a highly visual activity which could easily be used as part of a Poetry Display. This lesson covers context, form, language and structure through independent activities and structured guidance.
