A series of resources in one presentation to teach the narrative theories of Todorov, Propp, and Barthes so that pupils can understand structure in texts. Theories are illustrated with specific examples of writing that embody Todorov's theory of equilibrium, Propp's eight character roles, and Barthes' concept of enigma. Particularly suited to English and English Language GCSE, but I have also used for GCSE Media Studies, and taught this to KS3 classes for Key Skill Communication final assessment in writing.

A set of pupil exemplars from A - C in AS Media Studies coursework in print-based media (magazine covers, contents, and feature articles), WJEC exam board. Includes a fully annotated and marked final submission.
