Unlock your students’ potential in non-fiction writing with this comprehensive resource designed specifically for Eduqas/WJEC GCSE English Language Component Two. There is a reading booklet and a writing booklet based on the exam paper for these assessments, along with marking rubrics and model answers.
The reading section contains exam paper texts and questions, emphasizing reading comprehension and analysis. Students will engage with two texts centered around fossil discoveries, set in different time periods and contexts. Through this exploration, they will enhance their ability to extract key information, understand writers’ intentions, and analyze how language, tone, and structure shape meaning.
Text A features a determined female fossil hunter in 1883, who embarks on a professional expedition to Lyme Regis. Text B, on the other hand, presents a modern-day adventure where a group of friends set out for a lighthearted day of fossil hunting.
The unit includes a marking rubric and model responses to help students understand how to respond effectively to these texts.
The writing task is tailored to improve communication, organisation, and effective language use and helps students master key skills such as vocabulary, sentence structure, and paragraphing through engaging tasks.
The resource includes two key writing tasks:
Writing an article on maintaining a balanced lifestyle during exams.
Delivering a talk encouraging classmates to participate in community volunteering.
Both tasks encourage students to consider purpose and audience while providing opportunities to showcase their creativity and critical thinking. With detailed model responses and a self-assessment marking rubric, this resource offers clear guidance on how to approach these exam questions.
Ideal for classroom use or independent study, the pack is an essential tool for improving students’ writing abilities and reading comprehension, helping them develop confidence and clarity in Component Two.
