24 ready to teach lessons formulated from the AQA Teaching resources to help you develop the confidence of your Key Stage 3 students when reading 19th-century literature. You can download the full booklet for free (http://filestore.aqa.org.uk/resources/english/AQA-8702-19C-KS3.PDF) and it comes with teaching ideas, many of which I have utilised, so before purchasing you may want to look at it and design your own lessons. The Outcomes are geared towards year 7 students working towards the new grades 1-9 (Grade 1 - developing/ Grade 2 - good/ Grade 3 - Secure). Some of the extracts are quite long and will need differentiation for lower ability students. This has taken many hours of putting together and tries to encapsulate the language and literature AO's with questions designed to prepare for paper 1 and paper 2 of language.
