This is aimed at KS3 students but could be adapted for use with KS4. The resource provides 13 tasks for students to complete. These tasks are varied and cover assessment objectives AO1, AO2 and AO3. <br /> <br /> The booklet also includes information and advice about the assessment objectives. It is intended to promote independent learning.

A planning document for students analysing texts, each step of the PEELC paragraph (Point, Evidence, Explanation, Language, Context) is outlined, with extension questions at the side to support and extend student answers. It also has Grade Raising Opportunities derived from the AQA exam mark scheme, plus additional support questions. <br /> <br /> Designed to support and extend KS4 students, this is a resource specifically for the English curriculum. <br /> <br /> Students can use and re-use them as they learn to effectively analyse.

This sheet outlines different paragraphs that would be useful in writing to describe. Used with a low year 9 set, it outlines the order of information to be included and suggests language techniques to use. <br /> <br /> When used with my class, we put together sentences on whiteboards, extended them on the planning sheet and extended them further in an extended written piece.

Useful for KS3-4, this sheet allows students to focus on different parts of a picture when writing a description and makes suggestions of language features and structure that could be used. Includes extracts from Of Mice and Men as examples. <br /> <br /> These are worth laminating and re-using, as the cutting out takes a while!
