Average Rating3.66
(based on 71 reviews)

Most resources I develop are geared towards GCSE 2016-18 (AQA and Edexcel) curriculum and are practical solutions to classroom teaching. I keep most of these black and white for simple/cost-effective print. I read each novel/play/poem and break down into manageable parts. I find this most effective within classrooms where students require chunks of information they can order, in sequence. The 'study-packs' I create can apply to any book/play/poem and provide visual tools for memory recall.

DRAMA/ACTING TECHNIQUES - TASKS/WRITTEN REFLECTION AND BERTOLT BRECHT

(0)
A resource consisting of five tasks, including Monologue, Duologue, Group-Performance, insight into the methods of Bertolt Brecht and a final task of developing a piece based on current Book/Play/poem study. An excellent tool to be used alongside the GCSE-booklet (free-resource by the same Author). Can be printed as a booklet and used as part of individual lessons or an entire scheme of work. Particularly useful for students who require a kinaesthetic/more tactile approach to understanding literature. The booklet is set out in a series of tasks, to deepen the student-understanding and reinforce their learning through written reflection.

TIMELINE - GCSE EXAM TOOL

(0)
A simple yet effective tool for classroom learning; student-mentoring; counselling; planning. At a personal-level I have had 'fantastic' results from students and individuals I've worked with in a mentoring-counselling capacity, more often leaving them to their own devices to create the detail. A highly-effective revision tool for any student, particularly those preparing for exams, to arrange their thoughts in order and gain that ever-so-important visual perspective of their work.

QUOTATION BOOKLET - BOOK/PLAY/POEM - CHAPTER/ACT/STANZA

(0)
A resource developed to capture key quotes/passages/lines from Book, Play or Poem. This booklet is well laid out with ample space and a subject line, so the student can use it once, e.g. key quotes from Macbeth, or use the same booklet multiple times and keep it as a revision tool throughout a term. In my personal experience, I print a Quotation Booklet per task, i.e. one for An Inspector Calls; one for The Tempest; one for GCSE Poetry, usually half the size of this one. The resource is set out across 12 pages, so this could be printed back to back as a six page booklet, or added to/reduced as required. The resource provides an example from a scene in Hamlet, in the first table boxes on the first page, to guide the student.

MEDIA EXTRACT - THE WORLD'S OLDEST FOSSILS

(0)
A two-page resource, prints back to back as a single sheet. Can be amended similar to other resources by the same author. Excellent for reading and writing exercise for students and for general interesting classroom discussion based on up-to-date topics. The oldest known fossils – dating back 3.7 billion years to a time when the Earth was still being bombarded by asteroids – have been found in Greenland, scientists announced in a discovery that could have “staggering” implications. Rocks recently exposed after a once-permanent layer of snow melted were found to contain stromatolites, sediments the researchers said had been created by the growth of layer upon layer of micro-organisms. If confirmed as evidence of life, they are about 220 million years older than the previous record holder and the researchers said the “sophistication” of the microbes pointed to life on Earth beginning more than four billion years ago.
