A Christmas Carol Quotes Revision Game

A Christmas Carol | Quotes Revision | I Have Who Has | GCSE This resource is targeted towards high school students in need of key quotes revision. It is a great way to get students revising whilst making it feel like a game. There are 36 cards included, and these are divided into two games of 18 cards each. There are also two blank cards with each set in case you would like to write in a couple of your own to each game. Each card contains a quote and stave. The blue version of the game includes quotes that describe characters. The green version of the game includes quotes said by different characters. A student will read the quote on their card, and students must identify whether the character on their card said this quote, or whether the description is about their character (depending on which version of the game they’re playing). They must also identify whether the quote is from the stave specified on their card. Full instructions are included in the resource, as are all of the answers on a separate teacher sheet. There are also suggestions for differentiation, including making the game more or less challenging, as needed.

Of Mice and Men Essay Structures

(0)
Of Mice and Men Essay Structures provides two different types of structures for learners, depending on ability/level of confidence with the novel. These have been tried and tested with groups of differing abilities in preparation for the Unit 1 Literature exam (WJEC). The first set of essay structures is for pupils who don’t have much exam practice. It provides them with a detailed scaffold for some of the key ideas they may want to discuss and in which order. There are spaces for them to add notes about context and key quotations to include. There is an essay structure for each character and for the theme of ‘loneliness’. This has worked very well with C/D borderline learners. The second set of structures are brief notes for learners who are more confident with writing essays, or as a quick revision tool. There is an essay structure for each character, in addition to three thematic structures. This has worked well as a revision resource for all abilities, and as a lighter form of scaffolding for B+ grade learners when beginning to produce essays.
