A Powerpoint for students to use independently at home during school closure.
Based on Boris Johnson’s television address on Monday 23rd March 2020 in regards to the UK going into lockdown, this resource looks at the rhetorical devices used in his speech; alongside focussing on AO2 development, this will hopefully help children to understand why the speech might have felt quite anxiety-inducing, and offers them some tips to help with their coronavirus anxiety.
Suitable for Years 9 and 10.

Great resource--intelligent both intellectually and emotionally (if you forgive the division).

What an excellent idea and produced so quickly. Brilliant and many thanks. This is ideal for keeping GCSE English Language students interested when there is no point in going through exam papers any more.
