AQA GCSE English Language
Paper 1 - Section A (Reading)
I created this mini-mock focusing on The Little Match Girl for my Y11 class to help them with their revision. It contains one fiction source and a sheet of questions in the style of the AQA GCSE English Language exam.
I have also included a document showing indicative content which may be worthy of marks for each question. Please note that I am not an examiner. I created this resource with my own students in mind and the indicative content in the “mark scheme” is my best estimation of ideas which might be credited in an exam scenario. All feedback is gratefully received.
The source contained is an out-of-copyright short story written in 1845. It has been reproduced for educational purposes and not for any commercial gain. This resource will only ever be provided for free and not sold.
