AQA GCSE English Literature Modern Texts – Lord of the Flies - Exam Revision – How to Answer Exam Questions on Lord of the Flies This resource is designed to help you prepare your class to answer a GCSE English Literature question on the theme of Human Nature in William Golding’s Lord of the Flies. It is NOT intended to teach students the novel – students should already be familiar with Lord of the Flies. It is designed for you to use later in the school year when the novel has been fully covered and the students need to learn how to use their knowledge to write the best possible exam answers. There are five elements included: 1. The Presentation: 'Answering AQA Questions on Golding’s Lord of the Flies’ - 42-slide Powerpoint presentation to help you guide your class through the essay writing process. It includes: AOs and the Mark Scheme, exam timing and weighting, essay structure, how to write an introduction, using ‘rough notes’ for planning, contents of the main body and how to write a conclusion. 2. Theme of Human Nature Sample Answers – this 1000-word sample answer to the question is presented in two formats for your convenience. The first is a one-page A4 handout of the essay itself. The second is a two-page A4 handout with wider margins and more generous spacing – this allows ample space for annotation and highlighting. 3. Theme of Human Nature Sample Planning Grid – shows the students how to use ‘rough notes’ to plan and structure their essay. 4. Planning Grid Template – blank Planning Grid which students can use to plan their own essays for any part of the GCSE English course. 5. Modern Texts AOs – explains the AOs to students in a manner that is accessible and easy to understand. Alternatively, you can purchase the Worksheets separately here or the Presentation here.
