A fully differentiated lesson that looks at a Paper 1-style AQA English Literature question (extract and question included) on A Christmas Carol and reviews the presentation of Scrooge as unsympathetic, the use of language in the extract and how the extract can be linked to historical context before students review their own answers and then self-assess each other’s work.

Brexit English

(1)
UPDATED FOR November 2019 - So all up to date! How to solve Brexit? It’s a question our politicians can’t seem to answer, but perhaps our students can see a way forward! Students are given detailed information sheets on six possible ways forward: no deal, Theresa May’s withdrawal agreement, new Boris Johnson withdrawal agreement, new general election, second referendum and revoking Article 50 or cancelling Brexit. Students work in groups to decide on their preferred option before debating different sides of the debate. Finally, students develop a writing to argue piece using their ideas and discussions as a stimulus.
