I have based the Power Point on Paper 1, November 2018. I generally use this Power Point over 2 or 3 separate lessons. I have found that borderline students often struggle with putting together a good answer, they often do not know key words to use or how to structure it. I use PEEZE and PEE which I think is standard. I also find that these students need short chunking activities to keep them interested. I have created a separate worksheet that breaks each question down to help the students create an answer. **A Sound of Thunder–Ray Bradbury is copyright for AQA Resource available on AQA website In this pack I have included: Power -Point Worksheet with the full exam questions Dinosaur Worksheet
