Differentiated walkthrough of a response in AQA Literature Paper 1. I have used A Christmas Carol as the focus of examples but is adaptable to all texts on both parts of the paper due to their identical mark scheme. Tried and tested with two classes, who found it very useful.

Here you’ll find two presentations that lead students through tackling Section A of both GCSE papers. They are neutral, so can be applied to any specimen or exam paper, and offer the students tips and clues rather than answering the question for them or providing a formulaic response. Timings and sounds are added to transitions. Tried and tested with two mixed ability KS4 classes who found it useful.
