Contains: poetic terms knowledge checklist to use as a starter, the main lesson in PowerPoint, including questions and tasks, copy of the poem with some brief context included on the sheet and finally, a set of group work tasks.
I created these for another lesson ob. It works well if you show the PowerPoint after you have assessed how many poetic terms the students know (see file for this) and before you get them to read the poem. The slides work as parts of the lesson with Q &A sections on them. Other resources offer students background info on St George and the dragon and on the painting. Overall, a high quality detailed lesson which makes for a great introduction to an enjoyable poem: everything's prepared and ready to go.
Pulls together a range of resources. You get:
TWO study packs...one focuses on the technical features used in creative writing, and is suitable for all ages, but particularly sudents over 13. The other, bigger pack covers the differences between descriptive and narrative writing in more depth and had lots of examples and student activities, enough for two weeks! You also get the slide sorters for 'what makes a good story?' Which work in conjunction with one of the first exercises in pack two, and a final resources of a set of punctuation reminders and exercises.
A great bundle containing background information on the book, a creative writing task sheet asking students to describe a derelict building or place, plus supporting background material son the key features of narrative and descriptive writing. This gives students more skills to apply in their own writing. DO please see my other ‘Skellig’ resources and KS2-3 resources.
Areet la? This is a great bundle, including a freebie extra, of great Blood Brothers resources. Included is a revision pack, fun 3-part mini pack of great resources on the Scouser dialect, Standard English and guides to the fantastic Scouser dialect in the play. Also included are differentiated questions on Act One, revision questions and a fun storyboard task for the ‘shoes upon the table’ song. A great value mega bundle. Grab your bevvies an’ relax!
This is an ideal pack for anyone wanting to encourage their students to read widely and perhaps try a different range of books. It is aimed at KS3 age students, mainly year sevens and eights. However, it is just as useful for aspiration Commin Entrance exam students who are keen to brush up on book knowledge prior to interviews. The project can last several weeks and is ideal as both extension or class work activity. The pack contains a useful letter home to parents asking them to support their child with the project, focus tasks on all aspects of the chosen book, tipsnon what makes a good read and a great speaking and listening debate activity- which book would you save from destruction, and why?
More chapter summaries on the way! This was used with my top set students last Summer ; all gained a top grade. They fund it useful as the language is tackled in the handout. Ideal for last minute revision as it covers a huge amount in compressed space. Keeps students on their toes and extends the most able. Very detailed handout which summarises plot events, defines tricky words, focuses on key language features and relates them to similar examples across the text and contextualises key sections. The handout covers a range of Victorian contexts, such as Darwinist theory and Victorian respectability, the London Underworld, the Victorian thirst for knowledge, literary contexts and religious contexts.
This worksheet focuses students on the plot and language of this difficult scene. Ideal as a cover or revision task. Very detailed. Please also see my shop's revision packs on the play.
I spent a while devising this as the final Act has so many scenes and elements tying together. The two side resource is bound to keep your students occupied for a whole period in your lesson. Or, set a few in class and get them to do the rest at home as a self-test. I found it really helped students identify areas of weakness in term s of plot knowledge, understanding patterns of language and analysing Macbeth's character.
An interesting sample response to a tough past paper question. I have also been given permission by a former student to upload another essay that they write about the role of the portrait in the novel, which I am sharing for free. These resources really help students to work on essay technique and peer assess with the OCR mark scheme.
Here we have some more sample anonymous student essays, a really thorough and demanding set of revision questions on chapters 2 and 3, plus a revision overview of Dorian's character. The chapter focus questions make ideal cover, extension or homework tasks.
This is an ideal revision pack for GCSE students. Less able learners will appreciate its comprehensive and thorough use of scene to scene links and well-chosen quotations and the most able will get a lot from the extended analysis and inferred points. It is very thorough and detailed, doing a lot of the cross-textual linking and contextual analysis for you. Students can download the pack to their 'phones and refer to the scene summaries as part of revision. When printed out, it's good to highlight best contextual references and their favorite quotations, so they can customise the pack further. Saves you hours of revision note-making!
This aesthetically pleasing bundle contains sample anonymous student essay responses to use with your own students, a useful contextual overview handout on the role of the portrait, plus an excellent handout on the Victorian Gothic in 'Dorian Gray'.
Here is another really good pack which offers an extra set of focus tasks plus good overview points and deeper analysis. Ideal for extending the more able whilst covering the key areas as well.
Useful and compact overview of the speech, language features used and their effectiveness. Covers the more complex terminology so a good little extension resource.
A slideshow with detailed definitions, examples, historical context and lots of good images. Ideal for anyone studying or teaching Jekyll and Hyde, Dracula, Frankenstein...any Gothic texts.
