A full SOW, with 7 lessons, designed to take around 2/3 weeks, approaching the unseen poetry element of the exam. Includes a variety of tasks, references to the mark scheme, formative and summative assessment. Can be easily adapted to suit poems of your choice/class ability. The poems not included can be found online, or in the CGP revision guide for unseen poetry. Generic mark schemes are also available online at AQA.<br /> Poems explored:<br /> The road not taken (included)<br /> The Tyger (on PPT)<br /> At Sea (formative assessment)<br /> Sands of Dee (formative assessment)<br /> Remember (on PPT)<br /> Upon Westminster Bridge<br /> Flowers (Summative assessment)<br /> Don't say I said (summative assessment)

A few resources, for a lower ability Y10 group, on how to approach the unseen element of the exam.

AQA style walking talking mocks, in preparation for end of module/year exams. These mocks only include Q1, 2 and 3 and are designed to take 40 minutes. The texts used are 'The Maze Runner' and 'The Lovely Bones.<br /> <br /> There is a pack with the source, the questions and writing space.<br /> <br /> The PPT breaks down the AO for each question, as well as providing advice, sentence starters and things to look for. The answers for Q1 are provided, but the generic mark scheme from the AQA website can be used for Q2 and 3.

A small 2/3 week unit, depending on class ability, focusing on some of the poems in the AQA Power and Conflict cluster.<br /> <br /> The lessons are mostly aimed at middle to higher ability, but can be easily adapted to be more challenging or can be broken down further. There is also a work book included, following the four lessons, to save on book work/marking (if like me at this point in the year, your department is running out of exercise books!)<br /> <br /> I hope it is useful!

This is a SOW aimed at Y11 pupils. This SOW is focused around AO3, and challenging/pushing pupils to the top grades possible. This SOW explores complex themes and ideas including: Paradise Lost, the presentation of women, the Sublime, narrative perceptions etc. Some of the content is specifically designed for those aiming for a 7 and above, however the lessons can be easily adapted for those who are aiming for lower grades.

A whole scheme of work, centred around the AQA specimen paper (Brighton Rock - not included), with other texts referred to. These resources have not been included, as they can be adapted and differentiated quite easily - the questions, skills and approaches remain the same.<br /> <br /> Resources included:<br /> - Adaptable and working PPT<br /> - Peer assessment grid (adaptable for all 4 questions)<br /> - Exemplar answers to Q2 (deliberate typo/mistakes - typed up exactly the way students responded) which makes a great peer marking exercise<br /> - A simple structure terminology match up sheet<br /> - News articles for approaching Q4 - group task

This is a 'flipped classroom' lesson for a high ability Year 11 group.<br /> <br /> The idea is they read all the material before the lesson (I uploaded it onto our student platform), and they come to the lesson prepared to have a mini debate about the issue. The students should have also prepared some features to include in their letter.<br /> <br /> After debating their points, and reading the material, the students then have 45 minutes to write their letter, with a plan frame which can be displayed on the board for them.<br /> <br /> This is designed to be a quick recap/revision style lesson, as the pupils should know the requirements of paper 2/letter writing.

A series of 10 quotations, accompanied with a worksheet to record answers, where students identify who said the quote, what theme it links too, what it means and where it is from in the play. Answers are included! Students are then left with a bank of 10 quotations they can learn/use in an exam, from a range of characters/themes.<br /> <br /> Easily adaptable for higher/middle ability, and good exam revision!<br /> <br /> Hope you find this useful, please leave feedback!

Used with high ability Y9 - could be easily adapted. Please leave feedback if you find useful - thank you!

Copy of the Text is not mine - I found it on here from emma_stuart - Thank you! (have slightly edited to add a front cover) <br /> <br /> From our thematic SOW Festivals, but could be used as a one off leading up to Christmas. These lessons are aimed at a lower ability Y8.<br /> <br /> Includes summary, analysis, hot-seating/evaluation and creating their own version of the story. May take one lesson for a higher ability set, or final task could be set as homework.<br /> <br /> Hope it is useful!

A short introduction to democracy, voting and election in the UK. Aimed at Y7 pupils, but can be easily adapted for older/younger pupils.

A fairly challenging resource, with a variety of tasks and integrated timers, aimed at high ability Y10s. Focuses on exam terminology, but not too much - more exploration of the poem, themes and context. Easily adaptable for lower/higher years and abilities.<br /> <br /> Please leave feedback and enjoy :)

A lively 'chat show' style lesson, where students get to work in groups and explore the play and characterization.<br /> <br /> Easily adaptable and can be used for KS3/4, at the end of the unit, to consolidate learning and knowledge of character/theme etc.

An introduction to journalism for Y7 pupils, exploring what is needed in journalism.

Used with high ability Y8s to explore 1914 poetry - includes a murder mystery activity, a hyperlinked video and group work. Can easily be used for a lower KS4 set or adapted for a higher ability KS4 group. I hope this is useful - please leave feedback- thank you.
