Based on the GCSE 9-1 sample extract question, here are 10 extracts with questions in the style of the sample question, plus a guide sheet on how to tackle the question, and short background notes as revision. These extracts all focus on Scrooge.

‘Great Expectations’ 11 extract questions from part 1 based on the sample question provided by AQA for GCSE 9-1

13 AQA 9-1 Literature exam questions similar to the 2017 exam question for revision and exam practice. Each of these 13 files has the extract and subsequent question written in a similar style to the original. The extracts are taken from throughout the novel and are different from my previous resource. The extracts are therefore less well-known and may provide more challenge. They are mainly character based

Based on the sample GCSE 9-1 assessment materials, these 15 extracts from the novel each have a similarly-styled question to provide lots of exam practice and revision.

Using the GCSE 9-1 sample questions as a guide, these 10 extracts and questions are designed to help students’ revision and enable them to practise the skills required in this section of the Literature exam.

Using the Eduqas GCSE 9-1 sample question as a basis, these 15 extracts are designed to replicate the exam question structure, both with the extracts and questions on the extracts, and also with essay questions for part b). Hopefully, these will provide structured exam practice and revision.

An extract from near the beginning of ‘Wuthering Heights’ when Heathcliff arrives. The questions are a mix of vocabulary, information retrieval, language and character analysis, which could serve as a useful introduction to pre-twentieth century literature & to the styles of questions found on 9-1 GCSE. If this is useful, check out my 3 comprehensions on literary baddies or 4 non-fiction comprehensions, with answers, and descriptive writing tasks…and very reasonably priced too!

For the CIE IGCSE Literature exam, these 14 exam-style papers each have an extract from Othello with an extract-based question, followed by a more general question on theme or character. They should provide useful revision and exam practice.

23 extract-based exam questions. As the text is still copyright protected, I’ve just made reference to the extract using the Heinemann edition for page reference, and the initial and end quote. The edition I’ve used has the same page numbers as the Hereford edition of the play, and was first published in 1992. The questions cover character and themes. They should provide lots of useful revision and exam practice.

Further to the extracts I made on parts 1 and 2 of the novel, these 10 are based on part 3, chapters 40-59. They are also closely modelled on the specimen assessment materials for GCSE 9-1 to provide relevant exam practice and revision.

Using the sample question as a starting point, I have devised questions on all the poems in the Time & Place section of the anthology which may be useful for class/group work and/or private revision/practice/homework

For CIE War of the Worlds, book 2, these 26 exam practice papers have an extract question with references to find the extract but not the extract itself due to copyright. There is also a question on the whole novel. These are similar in style to past CIE exam questions.

Questions on all the texts from the AQA GCSE 9-1 prose anthology, in the style of the sample questions.

There’s already a great revision guide on TES-thanks josim1. This is a supplementary revision resource: an amalgamation of notes and ideas on the theme of mothers & daughters and some key quotes which may help with revision.

Exam style questions on the Tennyson poems examined on CIE IGCSE Literature for am practice and revision

A very straight-forward fill-the-blanks exercise to practise these frequently confused words. I made this for a KS3 pupil who just couldn’t get this right! It might help another student with the same issue.

I made this for a specific pupil and thought it might help another pupil with a similar confusion. It’s not exciting, just three fill the blank exercises, but it helped to reinforce the difference between the two words.

Another resource I made for a pupil who kept confusing these two words. It’s a very simple, unexciting fill-the -gaps exercise to reinforce the difference between whole & hole. It may help another similarly confused child!
