Lucy's English lessons

Average Rating1.33
(based on 6 reviews)

I write schemes of work for English literature as well as English language and creative writing. My lessons have all been used to teach my classes and have been adapted to work well. I teach in a school which uses its own GCSE-level literature qualification, so I have some lessons on unusual texts. I've also got lessons on many of the Edexcel A Level texts. I've taught AQA, Edexcel GCSE and iGCSE, so have a range of useful resources to share.

Scheme of work for A Streetcar Named Desire

£25.00Save 32%

This is a great scheme of work that I’ve refined over the years I’ve taught A Streetcar Named Desire. It has roughly one lesson per scene although I don’t seem to have a lesson for the final scene - by that time I think students know what they’re doing! This bundle includes my very detailed and comprehensive notes on plastic theatre in each scene as well as links to music recordings.

Edexcel iGCSE exam prep lessons with round up of previously asked questions

These 2 lessons bring together resources about what has been on the Edexcel iGCSE in recent years (and implied prediction about what could come up in summer 2024) My notes on the exam texts are available through TES to buy separately - these are mentioned in one of the slides so either delete, edit or get notes… There’s a resource to cut up and sort for students to think about genre contentions and the mark scheme as well as which transactional genres have been used in recent years. The other lesson is about which anthology texts have been used in recent years.
