This is a clear, simplified handout on AQA’s English AOs for KS3 and KS4. The handout explains each of the AOs (with helpful definitions and tips). Students can stick these in the front of their books and even print them off as revision posters! If you mark noting AOs, students can refer back to these in their books! This endeavours to help famililarise pupils with the GCSE mark scheme. VERY USEFUL FOR KS4 STUDENTS!

Helpful Phrases for Language Analysis (Including Tips & Effects)

This is a handout for KS3/KS4 Students & Teachers. I made this because my Year 11s were begging me for a handout that clearly shows them multiple ways of explaining the effects of language. They struggle with variety in their answers and many found this helpful! The handout also clearly explains how to properly analyse ‘imagery’ (often poorly understood) and ‘connotations.’
