As we study An Inspector Calls by JB Priestley we look at how a generation gap seems to form between young and older characters, particularly in Act 3 as The Inspector leaves and allows the characters to discuss amongst themselves what has happened and what they have discovered about themselves. The lesson includes differentiated activities, thought-provoking questions and opportunities to link context to the play.
Power and Conflict poetry revision resource which gets students to build revision cubes using cube nets and a collection of around 90 symbols related to each of the poems. Students are allocated one of the fifteen poems, decorate their cube net related to one of the poems, choose between 5-10 symbols related to their poem, and then work with another student to make comparisons and comparative notes on their two poems. A simple idea but could be useful for last-minute revision.

We look at three key quotes from the pivotal character of Arthur Birling from JB Priestley’s An Inspector Calls. Helpful revision for GCSE and KS3 students analysing this classic play.
We look at three key quotes from Sheila Birling, one of the most important characters from An Inspector Calls by JB Priestley, and look at how and why she changes throughout the three acts of the play.
We look at The Inspector in JB Priestley’s An Inspector Calls and analyse three important quotes from the character: What do they tell us about him and what he represents?
We look at three important quotes from Gerald Croft, one of the key characters in JB Priestley’s An Inspector Calls, and reflect on how and why he feels more comfortable with the older generation than the younger characters.
In this lesson on Tom Becker’s Darkside we look at how Jonathan and Mrs Elwood are presented in Chapter Two, and how the narrator builds up a sense of foreboding through the description of setting and the clues given to us through what the inmates and staff say to each other. A fully differentiated and resourced lesson.
A fully differentiated lesson that helps students to improve their answers to a KS3-style assessment question on how John Steinbeck develops setting at the very beginning of Of Mice and Men. Includes differentiated activities and notes for students to use in order to improve their own answers. Easily adapted for other year groups and with a range of activities useful for KS3 and GCSE.
Marking can be such a time-consuming process without gaining the dialogue you want to have with your students. I’ve put together this approach to marking and DIRT that should hopefully save you some time. Rather than writing out the same comments again and again, this activity uses an alphabet code to do the work for you.
As we continue to study Tom Becker’s Darkside, we look at Chapter 13 and how the narrator builds up a sense of fear and trepidation through setting. Fully differentiated throughout and useful activities for both KS3 and KS4 students.
An easy to use reading comprehension pack with three sections of differentiated questions. This activity focuses on the right-wing extremist ‘Tommy Robinson’ and his supporters, as well as the now dwindling EDL. The comprehension helps debunk any credibility students may hold for right-wing extremism and gives a detailed background on the far right leader. It can be used in form time as part of literacy focus, or in an English lesson for KS3/4 GCSE comprehension training.
It is interesting, useful, very easy to use and good way to combine Citizenship and English.
