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 looks at the first half of The Eve of St Agnes as well as suggesting it’s all about states of consciousness. There’s a selection of critical comments on the poem which can help inform students’ opinions.

Lesson on prose structural features: NESTS

(0)
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.

Great lesson on stock characters and courtly lovers. Part of a scheme of work which later shows how Juliet teaches Romeo to stop being poser and become a real lover.
