<p>A fully-adaptable PowerPoint which explores ‘Winter Swans’ in preparation for the AQA Literature Examination</p> <p>The PowerPoint and accompanying teacher notes are aimed at high-level GCSE candidates aiming for grades 6-9</p> <p>The resource contains the following:</p> <p>AQA Assessment objectives for the poetry anthology examination paper<br /> Warm-up activity<br /> A brief biography of Owen Sheers<br /> A link to an audio of a reading of the poem<br /> A list of high-level terminology for this particular poem as required for higher grades<br /> A pyramid of questions which moves from knowledge to evaluation as a way of stretching students’ thinking<br /> A link to a copy of the poem (due to copyright; you can easily copy and paste into PowerPoint)<br /> A student sheet which can be printed off or projected onto the board to record ideas whilst working through questions<br /> A short plenary</p> <p>Followed by:<br /> Teacher notes - two slides containing ideas for understanding the poem and its methods at a high level which you should likely read before the lesson as preparation for discussion and teaching. How much you ‘teacher-lead’ using these notes, or how much you use them to aid independent learning is up to you. Notes are not definitive, but offer good-grounding in understanding Sheers’ use of method in the poem, with detail on structure and form as well as language in order to reach higher grades (e.g. Use of juxtaposition; symbolism, non-rhyming end-couplet etc…)</p> <p><em>NEW: THREE PAGE LESSON PLAN ON HOW TO USE EACH SLIDE INCLUDING KEY QUESTIONS, LEARNING AND OUTCOMES</em></p> <p>The lesson presumes that some previous learning has taken place on what language, form and structure mean, and that students have a good level of understanding of what questions they should ask of poems in order to explore them (e.g. when was it written? how might that influence language choices? is there a specific form? what relevance is the form? how is the poem’s narrative structured? Is there a clear structure? etc.)</p> <p>Best wishes,<br /> Englbee x</p>

<p>A quiz to talk about winter with upper-elementary students.</p>

<p>This is my version of a popular game - Dobble.<br /> Dobble is a simple pattern recognition game in which players try to find an image shown on two cards.</p> <p>Each card in Dobble features eight different symbols, with the symbols varying in size from one card to the next. Any two cards have exactly one symbol in common. For the basic Spot it! game, reveal one card, then another. Whoever spots the symbol in common on both cards claims the first card, then another card is revealed for players to search, and so on. Whoever has collected the most cards when the 55-card deck runs out wins!<br /> I hope you find it useful. Please, leave a review I will be very grateful!</p>
