<p>A complete set of notes which help support the Love and Relationships cluster for the AQA Literature anthology at GCSE. The system is called PLASTIC and looks at poetic devices, language, alternative interpretations, structure, tone, imagery and context. The notes are very comprehensive, but should support and push to the very top end of grade 9. Handy to use in class or out and could be stuck into anthologies as revision tools!</p>

<p>An answer to the following question: 'Using Frost’s ‘Stopping by Woods’, write a poem by the person who owns the woods mentioned in the poem, reflecting on the ideas of the original poem from an alternative bourgeois angle.</p> <p>Use ideas from the critical anthology to inform your work and include a commentary explaining how you have explored ideas from Marxist theory.’</p> <p>There is both a poem in response to ‘Stopping by Woods’, which is written from a bourgeois landowner’s perspective and a full commentary modeled on the Ulysses’ commentary from the board. I would say it is Level 5 in quality. It addresses all the assessment objectives and they are highlighted in different colors.</p> <p>Hopefully you will find it useful as a model with your students.</p> <p>I got my students to highlight the resource themselves to track the different assessment objectives.</p>
