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.

This lesson gives a choice of writing tasks and works through good things to include and common mistakes to avoid for creative writing. There’s a bit about how to use colons, avoiding comma splices, tense confusion and cliches. Could be used as an independent lesson or taught.

This is my mnemonic for prose structural features - NESTS This lesson and the table that goes with it explain sentence types, narrative voices, 5 act structure, event order and time phrases. It’s pretty dry as an actual lesson but it’s got lots of very useful information in a condensed and clear format.
