This is a 12 lesson scheme of work which aims to fully introduce students to the new AQA A A-Level Literature course. However, it could easily be amended to be appropriate for all new exam boards without a lot of effort required! This SOW would be ideal for teaching in the first few weeks with your new Year 12 students.
Lesson plans are full and detailed, with all required resources included, enabling you to introduce students to the new Assessment Objectives and clearly teach them how to structure their written work, including teaching them how to construct and shape an argument - all skills which represent a step-up from GCSE. These lessons provide students with a clear strategy for how to tackle the different elements of the course and will ensure that they produce A-Level standard work from Day 1 - success rate from teaching this, this year has been very high with all students feeling confident at producing written work from the beginning! Exemplar work for Paper 2 is included to help students understand the standard they are aiming for, from the beginning, enabling you to set the standard high!
This scheme of work culminates in students producing an essay response to put into practise the skills they have learnt, allowing you to gauge from the beginning their ability to write A-Level standard responses and intervene with students where necessary.
There is nothing else like this available on the Internet!
