A Christmas Carol - Introduction for Low Ability

A Christmas Carol - Introduction for Low Ability

(2)
We all have those classes who need that extra bit of guidance when it comes to PEE, and that need reminding of the key descriptive words in A Christmas Carol. Here we have a very basic lesson with a wordsearch and questions all on Stave One of A Christmas Carol. These could be used as two separate starters or just as a simple lesson to get the students remembering the key sections of Stave One. For very low ability.
Refugee Boy: Context and Culture

Refugee Boy: Context and Culture

This is a great lesson on the contextual and cultural links to the book Refugee Boy. It has a great little booklet that goes with the presentation that the students can work on throughout. It also includes selected pieces of information that can be stuck around the class for the students to pick the contexts that links and put it on the outlined hand. It worked really well with my Y8 class as it got them up and about finding out the relevant information and then moving onto using language techniques from Alem's point of view from the book.

AQA focused lessons for An Inspector Calls Here we have a must get resource which will save you lots of planning and resource making. I have created, in one place, a series of lessons which go through the theme of RESPONSIBILITY using questions which students answer in on their responsibility tree leaves. Throughout this power point, I also provide you with exam style questions, PEE extended analysis paragraph structures and a model answer. Learning Objectives are also throughout to show you where I started a new lesson again. This is a great buy and can save you planning time as the lessons are already set up in order with questions - play page numbers and all. I hope you enjoy!! (Please note responsibility tree is not included in the price of the resource)

An Inspector Calls - The Inspector - exploring

Fab resource to complete the set after the responsibility slides I have available on here. To top it off we must explore THE INSPECTOR!!! Here is a one off lesson to question The Inspector and how he feels about the death of Eva Smith using three of his quotes. There is a quotation breakdown of questions around a quotation with clues to get the students thinking. This also comes with a slide of sentence starters if they are struggling with answering these questions and then of course I have provided the answers. This breakdown is based on the guidance I received from the AQA board when on a course - it really gets the students to think about the quotation and the whole text (LINKING IDEAS). Enjoy! (Please note some questions are based on course ideas given by AQA - answers and scaffolds and sentence starters and overall design is what is being sold in this resource)

16 slides - 4 lessons worth of materials here with Learning Objectives…THIS IS A MUST GET FOR MACBETH TEACHERS! Do you like saving time? Do you like giving your students analysis questions on quotations, then giving them the answers on the next slide? Do you like providing your students with a model, colour coded, paragraphs with sentence starters and structure sheets? **Then look no further. ** Macbeth and Lady Macbeth Analysis is here with quotes and questions based on AQA guidance. Exam style questions with extracts and analysis of extracts using specific guided questioning and then a model answer before the students have a go at it themselves. I used this with my class and it keeps them focused and working. It builds them to the stage where they feel they can answer the question alone. As we know… it is all in the preparation. (Please note extracts are taken from Shakespeare’s original play and No Fear Shakespeare - this is not included in the price. )

Descriptive Writing - Feeling Isolated and Alone

A nice little lesson to get your class thinking about how it feels to be alone. They should use the images and the movie clips to write down a range of adjectives. The students should then attempt to put their feelings of feeling alone into a descriptive paragraph.

So here is a new design to my planning sheets. This is one for comparison, but it is very adaptable. You can just use this one and change it. As usual it has the different sections for students to fill in with regards to PEE. On the back of this there is even a labelled map of how this sheet should be used, including some helpful structure sections and helpful words.
