A Level Literature: (2) King Lear – Act 1 Scene 2

Shakespeare’s classic tragedy forewarns of vanity and its fleeting values, explores the concept of aging and the decline of control, power and identity. In an age of social media, its vanity and its attached fleeting values, our individual lack of control and our ever-changing identities in the post-modern world, this text remains relevant and essential. I have taught this text many times in the last 20 years and I have used this specific resource (revised in 2020): to lead my teaching in class, as a distance learning material/homework assignment and even as a tool of revision – all have worked well for the students. This dynamically presented PowerPoint lesson of 23 slides, includes: a starter activity, a glossary of terms, summary and analysis questions, an academic writing task, a theme tracker, an extension task, a homework assignment and a plenary. This is a complete resource with no additional work required from the teacher. Enjoy!

GCSE to A Level Transition: Poetry Analysis

(0)
The academic jump between GCSE and A level is significant. Often there isn’t a transition program or materials in place, and some students struggle. I have created an ever-growing set of materials to compensate for this skill’s gap and students have found these materials incredibly helpful. I have used these materials after students have completed their GCSEs and indicated that they are planning to move onto ‘A’ level, as homework assignments and even as tools of revision. All have worked well for the students. This power point lesson focuses on ´poetry analysis´ – this is essential knowledge. Through a series of structured exercises: the students explore content, language and structure - and adopt these observations into their academic writing. Colourful and interactive, I have received good feedback on this lesson. This is a complete resource. Enjoy.
