Two double-sided A3 Knowledge Organisers for English Functional Skills Level 1 and Level 2. These include the factual things students need to know to pass the exam, derived from the most recent AQA syllabus. They include grammar pointers, a spelling list and some reading skills.

A resource useful for helping students memorise quotes from the 'Power and Conflict' cluster of the AQA Poetry Anthology. The quiz is a cloze procedure with two quotes from each poem. The final two pages are the answers. This is useful for Y10/11 students who need more scaffolding in choosing quotes to memorise.

Can be used as a revision tool near exams or used during reading to consolidate knowledge. The questions are in order of the plot to avoid spoilers if used in this way! I use this quiz every lesson, particularly for my lower ability students. It has a positive effect on recall and familiarity with the play, context and quotes. I make it into a weekly challenge to get as many as possible right, with bonus points for any quotations used. Top three students are placed on the leaderboard in the classroom, which acts as a great motivator! Great for EAL students to understand the plot without having to translate the whole text. My Spanish student wrote on the top of her quiz: “Thank-you Miss, I find these [sic] resource so helpful”.
